  • Notes: In this work, we describe a new species of Pseudococcus from southern Sumatra, Indonesia, based on the morphology of the adult female. An identification key to Pseudococcus species found in Southeast and southern Asia is provided; and, although we consider the record of P. maritimus from Indonesia doubtful, we have included it in the key. https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5555.4.6
