Remarks
- Systematics: Ferris (1950) regarded this genus most closely related to Drosicha and to Drosichiella, but differs from both in the dorsal patches of black spines. It also differs from Drosichiella in the absence of any pores associated with abdominal spiracles, and from Drosicha in the presence of a pore band just within the atrium of the dorsal spiracles.
Gavrilov-Zimin, 2018, resurrected the tribe Drosichini within the family Margarodidae to place the genus Sishania in relation to other genera that he felt belonged in a subfamily of Monophlebinae (Drosicha , Drosidhoides, Matesovia, Palaeococcus and Sishania)
