FOOTNOTES:
[Footnote 1: Hinchley Hart, in _Cacao_, 1892, pp. 48-52, discusses
the three varieties mentioned here, and shows that intermediate forms
exist which connect all three. The _Forastero_ class includes all the
cocoas which have thick skins and large pods with rather flat beans.]
[Footnote 2: _S. singularis_, a nearly allied insect, is common in
certain localities and does similar damage.]
[Footnote 3: Cf. _Bull. Ent. Res._, vol. i. (1911), p. 83;
_Bull. Imp. Inst._, vol. viii. (1910), p. 150; vol. xiv. (1916),
p. 174; vol. xviii. (1920), p. 319.]
[Footnote 4: This has since been identified with _Gelechia
gossypiella_, Sanders, an insect which subsequently effected such
enormous damage in Egypt.]
[Footnote 5: These names are substituted for Bauchi and Nupe in
the old system.]
[Footnote 6: Lady Lugard, _A Tropical Dependency_, 1905, p. 236
_et seq_.]
[Footnote 7: _Ibid._, p. 209.]
[Footnote 8: Included in Southern Nigeria exports.]
[Footnote 9: Including copal resin.]
[Footnote 10: Including dressed skins.]
[Footnote 11: Identical with what is termed _E. biplaga_ at Ibadan,
but probably a local form of _E. insulana_.]
[Footnote 12: For the most recent information respecting cotton
cultivation here and elsewhere in West Africa, Professor Dunstan’s
Reports to the Brussels Congress of Tropical Agriculture (1910)
should be consulted.]
[Footnote 13: Since named _S. guineensis_ var. _robustum_, Stapf.]
