Notes: The article considers in detail the natural diversity of coccid pigments and dyes in all 18 extant families of the world fauna. Particular attention is paid to poorly known genera and species that were presumably involved in dyeing trades in different regions of the world during different historical periods. Some species are illustrated with color photographs. The chemical structure of coccid pigments and related insect groups is briefly discussed based on available literature data.
