Neotoumeyella Kondo & Williams, 2009 (Coccidae)

Neotoumeyella Kondo & Williams 2009: 14. Type species: Neolecanium leucaenae Cockerell by original designation . accepted valid name

Systematics: Neotoumeyella is closest to Toumeyella Cockerell, and they share many morphological features. However, the two genera can be separated by the following combination of features (morphological features of Neotoumeyella in parentheses): (i) multilocular pores other than spiracular pores mostly quinquelocular in Toumeyella spp.,12 e.g. Toumeyella liriodendri (Gmelin), T. parvicornis (Cockerell), T. pini (King), and T. virginiana Williams and Kosztarab (multilocular pores of Neotoumeyella spp. have 5–12 loculi, with pores with 5–10 loculi being common); (ii) ventral tubular ducts of one type and restricted to perivulvar region in Toumeyella (ventral tubular ducts of 1–3 types, not restricted to perivulvar region, extending submarginally anteriorly at least up to area of posterior spiracular pore bands, and often with ventral tubular ducts present across abdominal segments, and some present on mid-thoracic region). (Kondo & Williams, 2009) In Kondo, 2018b, Neotoumeyella was rediagnosed to include the autapomorphic features of N. ferum.
Structure: Adult female body convex to globular, often irregular in outline, with thin glassy test, or covered with dull white waxy secretion. Ovisac reported as present for one species (i.e., N. cerifera), but generally absent.
