 Remarks 
    
        -  Systematics: Subfamily DIASPIDINAE   Tribe DIASPIDINI   Subtribe DIASPIDINA  (Normark, et al., 2019)
Ferris (1920) synonymized Epidiaspis with Diaspis, but later (1936) considered it valid.  Takagi & Tippins (1972) discuss reasons for the validity of the genus.  Normark, et al., 2019 determined that Epidiaspis is not a monophyletic genus. 
-  Structure: Female scale circular to oval, convex, usually white.  Adult female pear-shaped to circular; disc pores associated with anterior spiracles, rarely lacking at posterior ones.  Pygidium with well developed L1; L2 and L3 usually reduced or lacking; gland spines large, often with forked or curved tip; dorsal ducts scattered, of different sizes; perivulvar pores in 5 (rarely 7) groups (Kosztarab & Kozár, 1988).
