Remarks
- Structure: Scale of the female somewhat oval, rather convex, brown, first exuvia near one end; that of the male similar in color, oval, exuvia at one end; pupillarial species (Ferris, 1938a). The scale cover of an adult female is 0.9-1.3 mm in diameter, round or broadly oval, convex, brown, with one orange sub-central larval exuvia. The scale cover of a male is oval, much narrower than the female’s,and brown with an orange larval exuvia at the apex. (Graora & Radonjic, 2016)
- Biology: Occurring on twigs or leaves. A. lauri has three generations per year and overwinters as the second-instar nymph on leaves and branches
- Economic Importance: The laurel scale is widely distributed in the Mediterranean basin, almost exclusively on Laurus nobilis and other species of Laurus. Dense populations may develop of laurel, causing leaf drop and twig die-back (Balachowsky, 1951).
- General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Ferris (1938a), Balachowsky (1951), McKenzie (1956), Dziedzicka (1989), Tereznikova (1986), Zahradník (1990b) and by Danzig (1993). Aspidiotus lauri was also described as n.sp. by Bouche (1834) page 16.
