Epidiaspis leperii (Signoret, 1869) (Diaspididae: Epidiaspis)Nomenclatural History
- Diaspis Leperii Signoret 1869d: 437-438. Type data: FRANCE: on Prunus persica. Syntypes, unknown, accepted valid name Notes: Type material assumed lost.

Remarks
- Systematics: Signoret's (1869d) discussion of Diaspis ostreaeformis Curtis actually refers to Epidiaspis leperii. Lindinger's (1912b) treatment of Epidiaspis betulae is actually E. leperii, the real Epidiaspis betulae is a junior synonym of Quadraspidiotus ostreaformis Curtis.
- Structure: Female scale 1.5 mm wide, circular, light gray, flattened, exuviae covered by a film of secretion and inconspicuous, but when film is rubbed off it is shiny and orange-brown. Adult female with median lobes large and prominent (Britton, 1923). Male scale cover elongate, white or light grey, with terminal yellow exuviae and body of living female light pink to orange-yellow, becoming dark red-brown with age. The insects are often found sheltering under lichens on the bark. Adult male wingless, with orange-yellow body (Gharbi, 2021)
- Biology: Epidiaspis leperii hibernates as immature females. The main oviposition in Turkey is April-May, with about 50 eggs per female. Larvae hatch in June, only one annual generation (Bodenheimer, 1953). Additional biological information by Geier (1949), Kosztarab & Kozár (1988) and Geoffrion (1976). A detailed study of this species was carried out in Switzerland by Geier (1949). There is one generation each year and the species overwinters as mated, adult females. Eggs are present in late May, June, and early July. Crawlers predominate in June but also are present in May, July, and early August. Adult males are apterous and are found in July and August; adult females are present at all times of the year. The preferred feeding site seems to be on two year branches in protected areas. In Hungary there is one generation each year, there is an obligate diapause over the winter, mated adult females are the overwintering stage, egg laying and hatching can last up to two months, egg laying begins at the end of May when pears are in blossom, most first instars emerge between June 5 and June 15, the first instar lasts about one month, the second instar requires about 20 to 30 days, and adults are first observed at the end of July or early August (Kosztarab and Kozár 1988). Bodenheimer (1953) observed 1 generation each year in Turkey with the "immature females" overwintering and oviposition taking place in April and May. Crawlers hatched in June. A pheromone is known for this species (El-Kareim and Kozár 1988a). A detailed study of the biology, economic damage, and natural enemies was carried out by Geoffrion (1976) in France. (Miller & Davidson, 2005).
- Economic Importance: Miller & Davidson (1990) list this insect as a serious and widespread pest. Gill (1997) reports Epidiaspis leperii as a pest in walnut groves in California. The Italian pear scale is an economic pest on many rosaceous plants including pears, apples, prunes, and peaches. It causes distortion of branches, gumosus, and early fruit drop. It is an important pest in some parts of Europe. In Hungary it has caused serious problems on pears (Kosztarab and Kozár 1988); it can cause serious problems on olives in the Mediterranean (Argyriou 1990). El-Kareim and Kozár (1988) report that egg production, sex ratio, and level of infestation differ significantly among cultivars of plum, apple, and pear; in fact, the apple varieties Jonathan and Starling were free of infestation in one experiment. Gill (1997) reported damage to walnuts in California; large populations caused weakened trees and smaller nut size. Examples of countries where this species is considered of economic importance are: Republic of Georgia (Aleksidze 1995, Yasnosh 1995); France (Bianchi and Bénassy 1979, Blaisinger 1979, Geoffrion 1976); Argentina (Chiesa Molinari 1948); Hungary (El-Kareim and Kozár 1988, Kosztarab and Kozár 1988, El-Kareim et al. 1988); Norway (Fjelddalen 1996); England and Wales (Fryer 1936); Switzerland (Geier 1949); California (Gill 1997); Italy (Melis 1949); Uruguay (Trujillo Peluffo 1942); Turkey (Bodenheimer 1953). Beardsley and González (1975) consider this scale to be one of 43 serious armored scale pests, and Miller and Davidson (1990) consider it to be a serious world pest. (Miller & Davidson, 2005).
