Systematics: Danzig (2006a) described the junior synonym, Phenacoccus kazakhstanicus, as similar to Ph. phenacoccoides but differing in having larger tubular ducts, which are present everywhere on the dorsum. The groups of trilocular pores near spiracles, characteristic of Ph. phenacoccoides, are absent in this species. (Danzig, 2006a)
Structure: Female. Body elongate, 2.5 mm long. Antennae 9-segmented. Legs with comparatively short segments and thick hind femur; hind femur and tibia with translucent pores. Circulus absent. Multilocular pores situated on five posterior abdominal sternites; singular pores occur near spiracles and mouthparts. Quinquelocular pores absent. Dorsal tubular ducts forming rows on meso- and metathorax, and on abdomen; singular dorsal ducts occur along margin of anterior part of body. (Danzig, 2006a)
Biology: Occurring on roots of the host plant.
