Systematics: This genus differs from all known genera of Eriococcidae in having short, cylindrical truncated setae of anal apparatus and pouches with numerous quinquelocular pores in the anal cleft. The genus is similar to Montanococcus Henderson, recently described from New Zealand, in the submarginal band of quinquelocular pores on the venter and in enlarged setae of anal apparatus, but these setae are not cylindrical and truncated. Also, Montanococcus does not have pouches with quinquelocular pores. (Gavrilov-Zimin & Przhiboro, 2016)
Structure: Female. Antennae 4-segmented. Legs small, with shortened segments; claw without a denticle. Anal lobes small, sclerotized; anal cleft with two small pouches. (Gavrilov-Zimin & Przhiboro, 2016)
