Zhang, B., Zeng, T., & Feng, J.N. 2012 A new species in the genus Fiorinia Targioni-Tozzetti (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Diaspididae) from China.. Entomotaxonomia 34(2):222-226

Notes: One new species, Fiorinia nanningensis Zhang & Feng sp. nov. from China, is described and illustrated. The new species is similar to F. linderae Takagi, 1969, with both having gland spines absent on the pygidium, and second lobes reduced, at most represent by a slight prominence, or absent; but differing from the latter in: (1) median lobes of new species small and narrow, without notches, ends often truncated (median lobes large and serrate, pointed apically in F. linderae); (2) gland spines or gland tubercles absent on body (with 1-3 gland tubercles on metathorax and 3 or 4 on abdominal segment I, and 1-2 gland spines on abdominal segment II in F. linderae); (3) interantennal process absent between antennal bases (small and conical in F. linderae). The type specimens are deposited in the Entomological Museum of Northwest A & F University, Yangling, Shaanxi, China (NWAFU).
