Remarks
- Systematics: Jakubski (1965: 64) suggested that Neomargarodes festucae is probably a synonym of Coccus phalaridis Linnaeus, 1758, but refrained from resurrecting Coccus phalaridis as the senior synonym. However, Coccus phalaridis is currently accepted (see Fernald, 1903b: 326) as an unrecognizable species of Coccus in the Coccidae. Jakubski (1965: 64) also suggested that Neomargarodes festucae is a synonym of Coccus radicum graminis Boyer de Fonscolombe, 1834. However, the latter is the senior synonym Lecanopsis radicumgraminis Boyer de Fonscolombe, 1834, in the Coccidae.
- Biology: Develops on roots of grasses, such as Festuca ovina and F. sulcata (Archangelskaya, 1935, Hadzibejli, 1959, 1966). Adults emerge in June - July (Jashenko, 1999).
- General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Archangelskaya (1935), Borchsenius (1950b), Jakubski (1965), Kosztarab & Kozar (1978, 1988) and by Foldi (2005a).
