• Biology: Occurring massed in the closely crowded axils of the branches, so crowded that it has proven impossible to secure a scale by itself alone without destroying it and consequently no habit sketch can be given (Ferris, 1955c).
• General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Ferris (1955c), Chou (1985, 1986) and by Ben-Dov (1988b).
