Remarks

Systematics: Subfamily: Coccinae A, Coccini (Choi & Lee, 2019) Distribution records may not accurate due to past difficulty in separating C. viridis from species such as C. alpinus De Lotto. . (Kondo, Watson & Gavrilov-Zimin, 2022)
Structure: See colour photograph in Kawai (1980, Fig. 6.8), Hamon & Williams (1984) and by Wong et al. (1999). Colour photograph of the general appearance of the adult female given by Carvalho & Aguiar (1997). Adult female oval to elongate oval, flat to slightly convex, pale green, usually with a dark internal U-shaped gut with black spots visible through semi-translucent dorsal derm, without any cottony wax or ovisac. Darkish eyespots visible on anterolateral margins. First-instar nymph (crawler) translucent yellowish green. (Kondo, Watson & Gavrilov-Zimin, 2022)
Biology: The female are parthenogenetic and ovoviviparous. Develops multiple generations per year; in Florida females mature in 50-70 days (Fredrick, 1943); in Queensland, Australia it develops 3-4 generations per year (Smith et al., 1997). De Lotto (1960) observed in East Africa that this species occurs in coastal areas and up to an altitude of 1 - 1.3 km. Kohler (1976, 1978) studied the life history in Cuba, observing males at low frequency that was correlated with population density.
Economic Importance: A serious pest of coffee, citrus and other crops in several regions in the tropics. A major citrus pest in Bolivia, less significant in other South American and South East Asian countries (Talhouk, 1975). Biology and pest status on coffee presented by Le Pelley (1968). Natural enemies on coffee in Cuba were studied by Kohler (1980). Coccus viridis has proved to be a damaging pest of ornamental plants at The Eden Project i Great Britain and this is undoubtedly linked with the high population levels of the ant T. albipes. (Malumphy & Treseder, 2012)
General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Zimmerman (1948), De Lotto (1960, 1978), Gill et al. (1977), Wang (1980), Tao et al. (1983), Hamon & Williams (1984), Williams & Watson (1990), Tang (1991), Kosztarab (1996) and by Granara de Willink et al. (2010).
