Lac (Kerriidae)

Lac Anderson 1790: 359. by present designation . nomen nudum that is unplaced Notes: Morrison & Morrison (1966: 101) presented information about this Nomen Nudum as follows: "In his introductory letter to the Roxburgh 1790 article describing the lac insect, Anderson said: "Mr. Roxburgh's discovery will bring Lac a genus into the class Hemiptera of Linnaeus." There was no obvious use of the binomial system in this presentation." It should be indicated that in the Coccoidea, there is also Lacca Signoret, 1869: 848, a Nomen Nudum which is placed with Ceroplastes in the Coccidae (see Ben-Dov, 1993: 153).
