• Fijifiorinia Williams & Watson 1988: 109. Type species: Fijifiorinia oconnori Williams & Watson by original designation . accepted valid name

Remarks

• Systematics: Subfamily DIASPIDINAE Tribe DIASPIDINI Subtribe CHIONASPIDINA (Normark, et al., 2019) Fijifiorinia bears a superficial resemblance to Pinnaspis in possessing median lobes that are fused for most of their length. It is pupillarial, however, and its true affinities are with the genus Fiorinia. In Fiorinia the lobes are separated and there are always two setae between at the base (Williams & Watson, 1988).
