Remarks
- Systematics: Subfamily ASPIDIOTINAE Tribe AONIDIINI (Normark, et al., 2019)
This genus belongs to the group of genera centered around Pseudaonidia Cockerell. It comes close to Duplaspidiotus MacGillivray, but differs in the absence of plates between the second and third lobes, and in the pattern of the reticulation on the dorsum of the pygidium. Williams (1957a) suggested that the heavy sclerotization of the pygidial margin anterior to the fourth lobes was a diagnostic character of Semelaspidus.
- Structure: Female black, slightly convex, circular or sub-circular.
Male much smaller, black, usually oval; exuvia for first a\stage larva reddish brown on anterior part of pygidium.
- General Remarks: Definition and characters by Williams (1957a). Detailed description in Wei & Feng (2010).
