Remarks

Systematics: Williams, et al, 2011, concluded that this species should be retained in the genus Ceroputo in the family Pseudococcidae. Kanda (1959) described Leococcus erigeroneus, collected from Erigeron canadensis (Asteraceae) in Japan, as the type species of his genus Leococcus. Kawai (1980) transferred the species to Puto, thus treating Leococcus as a junior synonym of Puto. Danzig (1980) suggested that L. erigeroneus was probably a synonym of P. pilosellae but did not formally list it as such. Tang (1992) appears to have been the first to formally cite L. erigeroneus as a junior synonym of C. pilosellae. Williams, et al., 2011 concluded that the species is identical to C. pilosellae. Takahashi (1932) described Phenacoccus asteri for specimens collected on Aster lauruleanus (Asteraceae) in Taiwan. It was transferred to Puto by Tang (1992), but the original combination was revived by Ben-Dov (1994). Williams, et al., 2011 regarded the species to be identical to C. pilosellae, and synonymised it. The description and illustration of Puto jarudensis given by Tang (1992), leave little doubt that the species is identical to C. pilosellae. Tang (1992) points out that P. jarudensis has two sizes of tubular ducts, with larger ones mainly in the ventral median areas of the head and thorax, and smaller ones on the ventral abdomen. The specimens of C. pilosellae from Europe that we have examined have larger tubular ducts on the head and thorax than those on the abdomen, in agreement with Tang’s description of P. jarudensis and it was synonymized in Williams, et al., 2011.
Ceroputo clematidis was synonymized with C. pilosellae by Danzig (1999), but molecular data indicates that this synonymy is probably not valid (Wang et al. 2016). Examination of non-type specimens at Beijing Forestry University suggests that the distribution of ventral quinquelocular pores differs between the species. In C. pilosellae, quinquelocular pores are very few and mainly present near the mouthparts. In contrast, in C. clematidis, quinquelocular pores are scattered medially on the thorax and anterior abdominal segments. However, the examined material of both species also has quinquelocular pores, smaller than or similar in size to the multilocular disc pores, present on the posterior abdominal segments. Since the holotypes of both species were not available for morphological study by Zhang & Watson (2023), C. clematidis continues to be treated as a junior synonym of C. pilosellae.
Structure: In this species, the eyes are about the same height as the length of first antennal segment. Specimens have 8- and 9-segmented antennae. The intersegmental sensilla are variable and often obscure and difficult to see. It appears that they are variably present between segments III-IV, IV-V and VI-VII. One specimen appears to have sensilla between the above mentioned segments as well as V-VI and VIII-X. The legs are shorter than those in Puto and possess fewer setae; campaniform sensilla on the trochanters always number two on each surface; the claws are thick and short and lack basal spurs, and the digitules are clubbed. Tubular ducts are present on the frons. Trilocular pores on the venter are smaller than those on the dorsum, and pores in the cerarii are only slightly larger than those on the rest of the dorsum. First-instar nymphs collected in Hungary (Budapest, Sashegy, 18.x.1996, in caricetum habitat by B. Kiss) and examined by Ferenc Kozár, and embryos collected in Turkey (Hakkari-Beyköy, on Euphorbia sequeriana (Euphorbiaceae), 1832 m) and examined by M. Bora Kaydan, all possess 6 antennal segments. (Williams, et al., 2011)
Biology: Occurring on the underside of the leaves of the host plant. Life history and natural enemies discussed by Kosztarab & Kozár (1988F). Parasites in the Palaearctic region discussed by Trjapitzin (1989).The insect occurs on leaves of the host plant.
Economic Importance: Has been recorded as being a pest of strawberries (Kosztarab & Kozár, 1988F).
