The material for the present report was collected mainly by E.P Mumford and A.M. Adamson in the years 1928, 1929, and 1930, and was sent to me for study by Mr. Mumford. The entire collection, including the types of new species, is stored in B.P. Bishop Museum. The number of species recorded here, 12 for the Marquesas and five for the Society Islands, is not great, yet the material studied probably represents a fair sample of the fauna of these islands. More intensive collecting perhaps would do little more than disclose additional species of Anagyrus, which is the dominant endemic genus. Another endemic group is represented by a species of Leptomastix, and it is possible that Eutrichosomella insularis Timberlake and Mesencyrtus insularis Timberlake are also endemic species. The two species of Encyrtus, Pauridia peregrina Timberlake and Tachinaephagus zelandicus Ashmead, are certainly intrusive elements of the fauna, introduced through the agency of man and probably in recent years. The same is also almost certainly true for Ooencyrtus sphingidarum Timberlake, which is parasitic in the eggs of an introduced sphingid. Of the 14 species of Encyrtidae known from the two groups of islands, ten are parasitic in species of Coccidae, one in puparia of various muscoid Diptera, and one in sphingid eggs. The habits of Eutrichosomella and Mesencyrtus are of course quite unknown. The species of Anagyrus and Leptomastix, and Pauridia attack species of mealybugs (Pseudococcus and allies), and the hosts of Anagyrus and Leptomastix must form an endemic element of the fauna. The two species of Encyrtus attack scale insects of the genus Saissetia. }, keywords = {Anagyrus, biology, CHALCIDOIDEA, distribution, Encyrtidae, Encyrtus, Eutrichosomella, French Polynesia, HYMENOPTERA, keys, Leptomastix, Marquesas, Mesencyrtus, Ooencyrtus, Pacific Insects, Pauridia, Society Islands, Tachinaephagus}, author = {Timberlake, P.

Four species are recognized, 3 of them endemic to the Hawaiian Islands (and 2 of these are described as new): Plutella capparidis (2 island races on Oahu and Maui); P. noholio sp. nov. (Hawaii); P. kahakaha sp. nov. (Kauai); P. xylostella (widespread). P. xylostella exhibits a rare individual aberration unique to Hawaii (originally described and named as P. albovenosa) and also has distinct host races feeding on Capparis on Kauai, Oahu, and Hawaii. The origins and taxonomic context of the Hawaiian Plutella are discussed. It is suggested that in Plutella, at least 2 prehistoric colonization events of the Hawaiian chain have occurred. The first was of a perhaps P. porrectella-like ancestor and gave rise to the present-day endemic species (the capparidis subgroup), 2 of which feed on Capparis (the host plant of P. kahakaha is unknown). The second involved a xylostella-like ancestor evolving into at least 2 separate Capparis-feeding host races that preceded the introduction or immigration of typical Brassicaceae-feeding P. xylostella in historic times. An overview of Plutella worldwide is provided together with a systematic checklist of world Plutellidae. Eleven new combinations and 2 new synonyms are established; one species is transferred from Plutellidae to Ypsolophidae.}, keywords = {description, distribution, HAWAII, invasive species, LEPIDOPTERA, Pacific Insects, Plutella, Plutellidae, taxonomy}, isbn = {0893-1348}, author = {Robinson, G.
