• AbdRabGeMa2010: pp.509 ( Adult (F) ) [Key to the species of Phenacoccus in Egypt]

Remarks

• Systematics: Ezzat (1962) credited Priesner and Hosny (1935) with the authorship of the species; however, the paper he referred to has no mention of this species. Based on Ezzat’s (1962d) brief description of the species, he is considered the author of the species. (Evans & Abd-Rabou, 2023)
• General Remarks: Good description and illustration of the adult female given by Mohammad et al. (1995). Good description of the adult female given by Ezzat (1962c).
