Prepygidial derm membranous; segmentation indistinct, the intersegmental furrows being obscure except those between abd III and IV and between IV and V. Dorsal surface ofpygidium sclerotic, the ventral surface sclerotized towards the apex but not strongly. Antennae situated within the frontal margin, separated from each other by a space about twice as wide as one of their tubercles, each with a short seta. (Takagi, 2003) Second-instar female differs from the adult female in the median trullae nearly triangular and in having marginal gland spines. Second-instar male heteromorphic, with a pair of glanduliferous craters, but also with the median trullae similar to those in the second-instar female. First-instar nymph with 5 antennal segments as in many Diaspidini. (Takagi, 2003)
