Remarks

• Systematics: Phenacoccus chatakicus is most similar to Phenacoccus hordei (Lindeman, 1886) as both species have a high number of multilocular pores on the dorsum. Phenacoccus chatakicus can be readily distinguished from P. hordei by having only 4-5 pairs of cerarii (vs. 18 pairs), a small rounded circulus (vs. no circuli), and by the absence of quinquelocular pores on the venter (vs. present at least around the mouth part). Phenacoccus chatakicus is also similar to Phenacoccus madeirensis Green, 1923 by having a circulus on the venter and multilocular pores on the dorsum of abdominal segments, but differs from the latter species by the absence of quinquelocular pores (vs. present), and by a small number of cerarii (4-5 vs. 18). (Kaydan & Kozár, 2010a)
• Structure: Phenacoccus chatakicus (adult female) can be diagnosed by the following combination of characters: one size of oral collar tubular duct (larger) on dorsum and two sizes of oral collar tubular ducts on venter (larger tubular ducts two times wider than smaller oral collar tubular ducts); multilocular pores on both venter and dorsum; 4-5 pairs of cerarii present (two on the last two abdominal segments and 2-3 pairs on head; circulus present; anal lobe cerarii each with 2 conical setae; abdominal and thoracic ostioles present; antennae 9 segmented, 320-370 µm long (apical segment 52.5-60.0 µm long).
• General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration in Kaydan & Kozár, 2010a.
