Systematics: Kerria manipurensis is very similar to Kerria javana (Chamberlin) in having: (i) the supra-anal plate abbreviated and hispid, (ii) brachia short and indistinct, and (iii) brachial plate quadrate/rectangular with 4 or 5 indistinct dimples. However, it differs in having (character states in K. javana in brackets): (i) antennae three segmented with 3 long setae (single segmented with 4 long setae); (ii) the dorsal spine is 1.16x longer than the width of brachial plate (as long as width of brachial plate); (iii) each anterior spiracle is 1.31x longer than the width of brachial plate (length smaller or equal to width of brachial plate); and (iv) the distance of anterior spiracle from crater rim to width of brachial plate is 1.38x greater in K. manipurensis than that of K. javana. (Ahmad, et al., 2013)
Structure: Lac test light brown, soft, resinous. Tests occur in aggregations; live mature females crimson. (Ahmad, et al., 2013)
