Remarks

• Systematics: Takagi & De Faveri, 2011a determined that Duplachionaspis oblonga was described from Yunnan Province, China, having been collected on the upper surface of the leaves of an unidentified plant, which should be a tree. As described it represented the teneral stage of the adult female. At full growth the adult female may be of the vitis type, but it is also possible that it reveals another type and moved it from Duplachionaspis to Aulacaspis.
• Structure: Adult female subrotund or elliptical, pygidium slightly sclerotized, median lobes with plump and round apices (Chen, 1983).
