Remarks
- Systematics: Pseudoparlatoria parlatorioides may be confused with P. ostreata in tropical regions (Balachowsky, 1954e). Ferris (1937) considered P. ostreata to be a junior synonym of P. parlatorioides, however, P. ostreata is separable from P. parlatorioides by the much greater number of dorsal macroducts and by the fact that these ducts extend forward as far as the 2nd abdominal segment in ostreata, while in parlatorioides they are few and confined to the pygidium (Ferris, 1942).
- Structure: Female scale flat, thin, papery, yellow or yellowish brown, circular or oval, exuviae submarginal. Male scale similar in color and texture, somewhat elongate, exuviae at one end. Slide-mounted adult female 0.75 mm long. Median pygidial lobes somewhat variable in size and prominence, separated by a distance greater than the width of one of them and with the usual forked gland spine between. 2nd and 3rd lobes small, but definitely developed, both bilobulate, flattened and not sclerotic (Ferris, 1942).
- Biology: We could find no definitive life history study of this species. Brown (1965) noted that specimens from São Paulo, Brazil on Eugenia jaboticaba had a haploid compliment of 5 chromosomes and found both male and female embryos. Schmutterer (1952b) indicated that both sexes occurred in populations in greenhouses in Germany, but because of the paucity of males he believed that the species might be at least partially parthenogenetic. Under greenhouse conditions in middle Europe adult females lay 30 130 eggs, and the larvae apparently hatch in about 10 days. (Miller & Davidson, 2005) Pseudoparlatoria parlatorioides was found mainly on leaves, also on branches, in large groups or individually; on leaves it was observed on both adaxial and/or abaxial surfaces, and on some occasions, it was the most abundant species on such substrates. (Lazaro et al., 2023)
- Economic Importance: Miller & Davidson (1990) list this insect as a pest. Strickland (1947a) lists Pseudoparlatoria parlatorioides as a pest of Cacao. This species was considered to be a serious pest in a small area of the world by Miller and Davidson (1990) and Arnett (1985). Merrill and Chaffin (1923) reported false parlatoria scale in Florida as an occasionally very serious pest, especially on Acalypha and palms. Steinweden (1945) listed P. parlatorioides as one of the more important orchid pests in California; it has since been eradicated from this state. These reports are possibly misidentifications of P. ostreata. (Miller & Davidson, 2005). Color photograph in Kondo & Gullan (2022a).
