Systematics: Psudococcus viburni (Signoret) was listed in Williams (2004a: 36) as a synonym of Pseudococcus saccharicola Takahashi; this was a lapsus calami. Williams (1970a) suggested that Trionymus oryzae Wirjati, 1959, may prove to be a synonym of D. boninsis, but later (Williams, 2004a) he synonymized the former with Pse. saccharicola.
Structure: Colour photograph in Wong et al. (1999).
Biology: Life history of this species was studied by Rao (1942). This mealybug lives on lower surface of the leaves, and on roots of its host plant.
Economic Importance: Williams (1970DJ) reports that this species is injurious to sugar-cane in India, killing young plants and causing yellow spots on the leaves of older plants.
General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Wirjati (1959) (as Trionymus oryzae Wirjati), Williams (1970DJ), Williams & Watson (1988a), Lit & Calilung (1994) and by Williams (2004a).
