Remarks

• Systematics: This species is distinguished from all other Paracoccus species by the distribution of ventral multilocular pores as well as by theparticular disposition of the submedial tubular glands. The presence of a concentration of multilocular glands with tubular glands in the prothoracic submarginal region, brings this tropical species closer to species belonging to the palearctic genus Atrococcus. (Etienne & Matile-Ferrero, 1993)
