Ichthyaspis is now Fiorinia Targioni Tozzetti, 1868 (Diaspididae)

Nomenclatural History

• Fiorinia Targioni Tozzetti 1868: 735. Type species: Fiorinia pellucida Targioni Tozzetti by monotypy . accepted valid name
• Fiorina Signoret 1869: 845;. . misspelling of genus name
• Uhleria Comstock 1883: 110. . replacement name that is a homonym (discovered by Ferris1936a: 23) Notes: This name was first used by Cooke (1881) in the combination "Uhleria araucariae, Comstock." This is the first use of the generic name Uhleria and therefore must be attributed to Cooke. Apparently, Cooke was in contact with Comstock, but Comstock changed his mind about the use of Uhleria and treated it as a senior replacement name of the armored scale genus Fiorinia. Comstock (1883) presented an invalid nomenclatural scenario making Uhleria a valid armored scale name and included three species currently considered to be in the genus Fiorinia. Thus, Comstock's description of Uhleria is a junior homonym of Uhleria Cooke. We here consider Uhleria Comstock to be a junior synonym of Fiorinia.
• Ichthyaspis Takagi 1970: 120. Type species: Adiscofiorinia ficicola Takahashi by monotypy and original designation . junior synonym (discovered by NormarOkMo2019: 67)

Remarks

• Systematics: Subfamily DIASPIDINAE Tribe DIASPIDINI Subtribe FIORINIINA (Normark, et al., 2019) Comstock (1883) put forth the replacement name Uhleria for Fiorinia because Targioni Tozzetti changed the specific name of the type species. Fiorinia is close to Pseudaulacaspis but has more degenerate marginal gland spines and dorsal macroducts. However, Fiorinia is pupillarial whereas Pseudaulacaspis is not. (Wei, et al., 2013). Normark, et al., 2019 determined that Fiorinia is now a monophyletic genus.
• Structure: Adult female with the median lobes forming a notch in the apex of pygidium and yoked together basally. Second lobes usually well developed. Gland spines present on pygidial margin, tubercular gland spines, if present, on ventral margins. Marginal ducts large or slender, 2-barred. Submarginal or medial ducts absent from pygidium. Perivulvar pores often present in 5 or fewer groups. Antennae tending to be elongate, conical and usually close together at the apex of the head, at times with a membranous process between. (Williams & Watson, 1988) Second-instar females of Fiorinia species can be distinguished from most similar genera by having the following: median lobes yoked, usually divergent, medial margin longer than lateral, with one pair of setae between; dorsal macroducts confined to body margin, with four or five on each side of pygidium; with two pairs of definite lobes, second pair bilobular. There are consistent differences in the distribution of the gland spines in most species of Fiorinia, but F. proboscidaria and F. theae are identical to P. cockerelli and P. pentagona. It is remarkable that the second instars are so similar, but the adult females are quite different. (Ahmed, et al., 2021)
