  Ortheziola marottai is characterized by having dorsal wax plate 3 divided medially, and lacking ventral plate 19 near the body margin. This species very close to O. britannica but differs by having (O. britannica values in brackets): i.) anterior margin of ovisac band wavy (anterior margin of ovisac band straight); ii.) large numbers of multilocular pores around vulva and on abdominal segments (multilocular pores only present in small numbers) and iii.) total absence of ventral plate 19 (plate 19 present). (Kaydan, et al., 2014)
