nomen nudum
(discovered by MorrisMo1966: 159)

Remarks
- Systematics: Cockerell (1902h) described Arctorthezia as a "section" of Orthezia. According to the Rules of Zoological Nomenclature, Article 10(e) a "section" is deemed to be a subgeneric name when proposed for a genus-group division of a genus. Thus, Cockerell is considered to be the author of Arctorthezia.
- Structure: Adult female: antennae 7-/8-segmented, apical
seta short and spine-like, legs with tarsus and tibia well separated, nine pairs of dorsal marginal wax plates, with three triangular midline plates (in fossils, rectangular wax lobes). Current Arctorthezia spp. have a Nearctic and Palearctic distribution. (Vea & Grimaldi, 2012)
- Biology: Found under mosses and stones on the roots of different plants, also
reported from ant nests. (Szita, et al., 2014a)
- General Remarks: Kozár (2004) revised the genus and classified it in his new tribe, Arctortheziini, in the subfamily Ortheziinae.
