truncate, apical process spinose, directed obliquely Gs as and caudad, 
then bent angularly obliquely cephalad. 
Anal segment of female broadly ovate, rounded at apex. Oviposi- 
tor with lateral styles large and broad with about twelve teeth set 
in two rows on apical margin, directed mesad; second valvulae joined 
in middle line, ventral margin straight, dorsal margin steeply de- 
curved from base, then more gradually tapering to pointed apex; first 
valvulae broad at base, tapering upward to apex, a few subapical 
teeth on each margin, a flat narrow tapering lobe on inner face attached 
at base. 
Posterior margin of pregenital sternite with a short rectangular 
median excavation. 
Ege ovoid, obliquely concave on two-thirds of one side, where the 
shell is chaelceneel and minutely channeled, surface aeienter reticu- 
late; length, 1.0 mm.; width, 0.5 mm. 
Described from one male and three females collected by the writer on 
black sage (Cordia cylindrostachya) and various shrubs (Nov. 3, 1936, 
April 4, 1941, Aug. 28, 1942) and one female collected by Miss B. L. 
Kerr from mango (July 14, 1948) at St. Augustine, Trinidad, B. W. 1. 
Holotype male in B.M.N.H.; allotype, U.S.N.M. No. 56710. This 
species appears to be near F’. occidentalis Walker but differs in the 
shape of the vertex, in tegminal markings, and in the genitalia.

Head, with eyes, as wide as pronotum; vertex short, more than

inae present at base, usually obsolete on disk, lateral margins sub- 
parallel, curved inwards to frontoclypeal suture; clypeus devoid of 
carinae; antennae with second segment subglobular at apex, tapering 
basad, terminal segment with seta arising at apex on posteroventral 
side of rim. Pronotum short, approximately as long as vertex, im- 
pressed on each side of middle line, with median and lateral carinae 
feebly present or obsolete, anterior margin convex, posterior margin 
shallowly coricave; mesonotum feebly carinate. Posttibiae unarmed.
