Beck found a number of specimens in a cluster of seeds on a leguminous tiee, on large leaves of a forest plant, on the bark of a dead tree, and by sweeping the forest shrubs. H. T. Pagden collected becki on coconut trees; E. Ramey collected them by sweeping in the forest jungle. Trigonops platessa Heller Heller, Verb. Nahirf, Ges. Basel XLV, 1934, p. 19 Fig. 32-33-34.
