Remarks
- Systematics: De Lotto (1963) first pointed out that authorship Diaspidiotus Berlese, 1896 has been incorrectly credited to Leonardi, or to Berlese & Leonardi. The issue was further discussed by Morrison & Morrison (1966) and by Danzig (1993). In this catalogue we accept De Lotto's (1963) interpretation as follows: Diaspidiotus Berlese, in: Berlese & Leonardi (1896: 350), type species: Aspidiotus (Diaspidiotus) patavinus Berlese, in: Berlese & Leonardi (1896: 350). Quadraspidiotus MacGillivray was accepted until the early 1990's a distinct genus, to which Borchsenius (1966) assigned about 50 species. In this catalogue we follow the view of Danzig (1944) and of Dr. Sadao Takagi (personal communication, 17 October 2002, to Yair Ben-Dov) that there is no good basis to distinguish Quadraspidiotus from Diaspidiotus.
In 1937, Ferris stated in a note pertaining to Hendaspidiotus McGillivray: "No good reason appears for separating this from Diaspidiotus" Therefore, it was briefly treated as a junior synomym. In 1938, Ferris designated it a junior synomym of Clavaspis.
Problematic species within the Diaspidiotus clade determined by the phylogeny in Schneider, et al., 2018, include: Aspidaspis arctostaphyli, Diaspidiotus aesculi, Diaspidiotus ancylus, Hemiberlesia cyanophylli and H. lataniae. They hypothesize
that convergence, perhaps toward a functional form, is responsible for the misclassification of several fairly distantly related species within this genus.
- Structure: Adult female not pupillarial; body circular or pyriform, prosoma membranous or somewhat sclerotized. Pygidium with 1–3 pairs of lobes. Marginal paraphyses variously developed. Plates absent or small, more or less fringed, occasionally large and fimbriate. Anus oval, shorter than a median lobe, located at posterior quarter of pygidium. Vulva situated at, or just anterior to, centre of pygidium. Dorsal ducts 1-barred, slender, of moderate length; often 1 marginal duct present between median lobes (L1). Prepygidium without plates or duct tubercles, but often with ducts. Perivulvar pores present in 4 or 5 groups, or absent. Spiracular disc pores absent; antennae quite widely separated, each bearing 1 seta. (Moghaddam & Watson, 2021)
