Takagi et al., (1988) discuss the relationship between Africaspis and Cameronaspis. The genus Cameronaspis is divisible into two groups based on the apical region of the pygidium in the adult female and may be separated in each group as follows:
Linderae group. Second trullae well represented, set close to median trullae, leaving little space between them; marginal macroduct of abd VII opening at base of second trulla, with the orifice surrounded by the sclerosis associated with the trulla. C. linderae [Cameron Highlands, l600m, on Lindera]; C. pustulifera [Cameron Highlands, 1300-1600m, on 'Henslowia' and Euodia]; C. dilleniae [Mt. Kinabalu, 2750m, on Dillenia]. Adinandrae group. Second trullae less developed, separated from median trulla by a small membranous conical prominence, in which the marginal macroduct of the seventh abdominal segment opens. C. adinandrae [Cameron Highlands, 1300m, on Adinandra; Crocker Range, 1300-1400m, on Adinandra; Mt. Kinabalu, 1550m, on Vernonia; central and eastern Nepal, l470-2120m, on Eurya]; C. ilicis [Mt. Kinabalu, 3100-3300m, on Ilex]; C. orchidarum [Philippines and Singapore, on commercial orchids]. (Talagi, 2005)
