Extract

In Prof. Newstead's paper “On Scale Insects from the Uganda Protectorate” (Bull. Entom. Res. Vol. I. pt. 1) is a description and figure of the male larva of Stictococcus dimorphus. This remarkable larva is said to have no mouth parts. It is also unique in differing completely in form and structure from that of the female larva of the same species. Its anal aperture is not only in a different position, but of a different character—having a setiferous ring similar to that of the Dactylopiinæ. Stictococcus is (rightly or wrongly) placed in the subfamily Lecaniinæ.
