Eriococcidae)
Nomenclatural History
- Pseudotectococcus
Hempel
1934: 139.
Type species: Pseudotectococcus anonae Hempel
by monotypy and original designation
.
accepted valid name
Remarks
- Systematics: Generic characteristics that distinguish this genus from all other eriococcids are: enlarged setae present; anal lobes heavily sclerotized, each with total of 3 setae on both surfaces, not enlarged; antennae 3- segmented (Miller, 1999, personal observation). Hempel (1934) placed this genus in the Eriococcinae close to Tectococcus.
- Structure: Galls of both sexes on upper leaf surfact, those of females slightly rounder and blunter than those of males; gall openings all on the ventral surface of the leaf (Hodgson, 2020)
- General Remarks: Full descriptions of the adult females of both species and the adult male of P. rolliniae Hodgson & Gonçalves, are given in Hodgson et al. (2004) and Hodgson and Miller (2010) (where the figure is incorrectly labelled as P. anonae Hempel).
