Wang, F., & Feng, J.N. 2013 A newly recorded soft scale genus of Coccidae (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) from China. Entomotaxonomia 35(1): 6-10

Notes: The genus Ericeroides Danzig, 1990 and one species E. zaitzevi Danzig, 1990 of Coccidae are recorded for the first time from Yunnan, China. The new recorded genus is close to Ericerus Guérin-Méneville, with both having numerous stigmatic spines and claw denticles, but it can be distigusihed by lacking dorsal tubular ducts and preopercular pores. Detailed descriptions and illustrations of adult female are given in this paper.
