Remarks
- Systematics: GenBank accesssion (Costa Rica, KT956119.1)
This species has been most commonly confused with P. elisae Borchsenius and (P. landoi (Balachowsky) (see Gimpel & Miller, 1996). Substantial morphological variation in slide-mounted specimens was observed among Pseudococcus jackbeardsleyi specimens. The presence of discoidal pores in a sclerotized area associated with each eye, and translucent pores on the hind femur and tibia, are important characters in the identification of P. jackbeardsleyi, which has been previously recorded as having 21‒69 translucent pores on the femur (Gimpel & Miller 1996). However, in the 54 specimens studied here, the number of pores found on the hind femora were quite variable, with a wider range of 0‒117 translucent pores. (Pacheco da Silva, et al., 2019)
- Structure: This mealybug is greyish in colour; thin filaments around the body, caudal pair about one half of the length of the body, and ovisac covering hind part of the body (Williams 2004a). Body of the female oval to elongate. Antenna 8 segmented. Legs well developed, translucent pores present on hind femur and hind tibia. Discoidal pores present near eye on sclerotised rim. Cerarii 17 pairs. Anal lobe cerari with 2 conical setae and many trilocular pores on sclerotised area. All other cerarii on a membranous area. Anal lobe and penultimate cerari with oral collar tubular duct between them. Ventral surface with slender setae. The invasive mealybug is grayish in color; thin filaments around the body, caudal pair about one half of the length of the body, and ovisac covering hind part of the body. (Mani, et al., 2013)
- Economic Importance: This species has been most commonly collected on banana, tomato, potato, pepper and Hibiscus (Gimpel & Miller, 1996). There is no evidence that the species occurs in Canada (Rosita Dimitrova personal communication January 21, 2019) either through quarantine or in greenhouses
- General Remarks: Description and illustration of adult female by Gimpel & Miller (1996) and by Williams (2004a). The description and illustration of the adult female by Williams & Granara de Willink (1992) should be used while considering the comments of Gimpel & Miller (1996).
