AN ANNOTATED LIST OF GENERIC NAMES OF THE COCCOIDEA 33 



Ceroputo Sulc, 1898, K. Bohmisch. Gesell. der Wiss. Sitzber. (1897) 

 No. 66 : 1. 



type-species : Ceroputo pilosettae Sulc, 1898, by monotypy. 



This genus is accepted as closely related to Puto Signoret, 1876. Ferris, 1918d : 

 34, 61, 1950b : 190, actually placed Ceroputo as a synonym of Puto. Recent Euro- 

 pean workers including Lindinger, 1937 : 181 ; Borchsenius, 1948b : 31, 1949 : 

 285, 289-290 ; and Reyne, 1954a : 323, regard the genus as distinct. Balachowsky, 

 1948b : 253, assigned it to the Pseudococcini, but there is evidence that this 

 genus and Puto deserve a sharper group separation from other known pseudococ- 

 cids.

Chaetaonidia Balachowsky, 1948, Actualizes Sci. et Indus., Ent. Appl. 

 1054 : 269, nomen nudum ; 1951, 1127 : 615. 



type-species : Aonidia tlaiae Balachowsky, 1927, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



This genus was proposed in 1948 without description. Balachowsky, 1951 : 

 615, indicated that the name was a synonym of Cryptoparlatoreopsis Borchsen- 

 ius, 1947. 



Chaetococcus Maskell, 1898, New Zeal. Inst, Trans, and Proc. (1897) 

 30 : 249. 



type-species : Sphaerococcus oamousae Maskell, 1893, by subsequent desig- 

 nation of Fernald, 1903b: 120 (the first we have located). 



This belongs with Antonina Signoret and some other genera in a group of much 

 modified mealybugs. Betrem, 1937 : 21, 97, and Lindinger, 1937 : 181, placed the 

 name as a synonym of Antonina. Goux, 1935a : 96, and Borchsenius, 1949 : 314, 

 recognized the genus and the latter assigned species to it. It appears to be validly 

 distinct from Antonina. 



Chavesia Balachowsky, 1957, Rev. de Path. Veg. et d'Ent, Agr. de 

 France 36 : 158-159. 



type-species: Chavesia caldasiae Balachowsky, 1957, by original designa- 

 tion and monotypy. 



The describer assigned this coccid genus to the group "Kerminae-Eriococcini," 

 related to Eumyrmococcus Silvestri. Hoy, 1963, New Zeal. Dept. Sci. and Indus. 

 Res. Bui. 150: 8, examined specimens of the type-species and found no morpho- 

 logical grounds for association with the Eriococcidae. 



Chelinococcus Signoret, 1869, Soc. Ent. de France Ann. (ser. 4) 9:
