Remarks

• Systematics: Kuwana (1926) moved this species into Aulacaspis based on the location of the exuviae and outline of the body.
• Structure: Female scale circular, opaque white, slightly convex. Light ochreous exuviae to one side, often with the margin; first exuvia pale yellow, second exuvia pale yellow with yellow caudal end, oval in shape. Male scale elongate, small, sides nearly parallel, white, with feeble median keel. Adult female elongate, pale yellow, cephalothorax expanded, abdominal segments narrow (Kuwana, 1926).
