According to Marlatt, A. cydonie is conspecific with A. latanie. Iam not at present 
able to decide whether the differential characters are varietal or specific.

* On Sept. 28, 1899, Mr. Alex. Craw quarantined at San Francisco some fruits of pomegranate, believed, 
but not certainly known, to come from Mazatlan. On them were Aspidiotus rapax, Comst., and Chrysomphalus 
aurantw (Maskell). This is the only evidence for the occurrence of these species in Mexico.
