Remarks

• Systematics: Ben-Dov (1974) examined type material and believes the material to be only immatures of I. longirostris and an undetermined species of Diaspidini. It would be logical for the next reviser to designate a lectotype of one of the syntypes that is identical with I. longirostris so that this species would be a junior synonym of I. longirostris.
• General Remarks: Best description and illustration by Leonardi (1914).
