Cintococcus Goux. 1940, Soc. dTIist. Nat. i'Afrique du Xord, Bui. 

 31 : 61-62. 



type-species : Ripersia cinti Balachowsky, 1933. by original designation and 

 nionotypy. 



This was described originally as a subgenus of Ripersia Signoret but at a 

 time when there was little critical understanding of the nature of Ripersia as 

 a pseudococcid genus. 



Cionops Leach. 1815, in Brewster's Edinb. Encyc. 9: 126 (according 

 to Agassiz, 1845, List of Zoological Names, and Fernald, 1903b: 

 33) . Sherborn, 1925, Index Animal., sec. 2, pt. VI : 1318, and Neave, 

 1939, Xomen. Zool. 1 : 740, state, "not located on search." 



We have not succeeded in locating a copy of the 1815 edition of the Edinburgh 

 Encyclopedia, so can contribute no critical comment on this name and its cita- 

 tion. The name seems to be universally accepted as a synonym of Orthezia 

 Bosc d'Antic, 1784, but we have found no mention earlier than Westwood, 

 1810: 450. where it stands as a synonym of Orthezia, and therefore have no 

 assurance that it actually has any status. It does not, for example, appear 

 in Signoret's extensive study of the coccids, which started with a review of the 

 work of earlier coccid authors. Perhaps it should be charged against West- 

 wood, 1840, rather than Leach, 1S15. 



Circaputo MeKenzie, 1962, Hilgardia 32 : 643. 



type-species: Circaputo hirsutus McKenzie, 1962. by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



The describe* placed this pseudococcid genus as related to Cataenococcus 

 Ferris, Paraputo Laing, and Criniticoccus Williams. 



Circulaspis MacGillivray, 1921, The Coccidae. p. 393. 



type-species : Odonaspis canaliculata Green. 1000, by original designation 



and monotypy. 



Ferris, 1037a : 33. considered this a valid genus zoologically, but later. 1038a : 

 SII-156, 161, questioned if it represented a sound segregate. Balachowsky. 

 1048b : 264, 1040 : 100, accepted it as valid in the Odonaspidini. 



Cissococcus Cockerell, 1902. Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist, (ser. 7) 9: 23. 



type-species : Cissococcus fulleri Cockerell. 1002. by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



The describer assigned this genus to the Eriococcini. Brain, 101S : 100, estab- 

 lished the Cissococcinae for it. Ferris. 1020a: 65, assigned it to the Coccidae 

 (str.), reporting affinities with Ceroplastes Gray. Steinwedcn. 1020: 233, dis- 

 cussed it but added nothing to the Ferris opinion.
