- Planococcus planococcoides (Borchsenius, 1962); Tang 1992: 377. change of combination
- Nipaecoccus planococcoides (Borchsenius, 1962); Danzig & Gavrilov-Zimin 2015: 482. change of combination Notes: Planococcus planococcoides was transferred to Nipaecoccus as N. planococcoides by Danzig and Gavrilov-Zimin (2015), because it has conical setae on dorsum and additional cerarii along body midline. However, since it has an anal lobe bar present on each anal lobe, marginal cerarii numbering 18 pairs and claw without a denticle, here we follow Tang (1992) and place it under Planococcus.
