Remarks
- Structure: Scale of the female about 2.5 mm in diameter, circular; flat; pale brown or at times almost white; the centrally placed exuviae very dark but covered with a wax film; thin, but very hard and brittle; in one lot a large proportion of the scale are almost pure white, but this is possibly due to a surface film since the scale beneath the surface is brown. Male scale quite similar in form and texture to that of the female but smaller and paler (Ferris, 1942).
- Biology: Occurring on the leaves (Ferris, 1942).
- General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Ferris (1942) and by McKenzie (1950).
