Remarks
- Systematics: Mycetaspis is related to Melanaspis but differs in the presence of a broad protuberance on cephalic margin (Ferris, 1941d; Balachowsky, 1958b). It is similar to the genus Melanaspis in that it has elongated paraphyses arising from the basal angles of the lobes, and between the 2nd and 3rd lobes, but differs from
that genus in that the adult female has the frontal area sclerotized, raised and narrowing abruptly or rounded. (Dones & Evans, 2011)
- Structure: The genus, like most members of the subfamily Aspidiotinae, has the pygidium with macroducts of the 1-barred type, the second pygidial lobe not bilobulate, fringed plates present between the lobes, and the anterior and posterior spiracles without associated disk pores (Ferris 1941), except for M. bezerrai (Arruda
1972).
- General Remarks: Definition and characters by Ferris (1941d) and by Balachowsky (1951, 1958b).
