Ametrochaspis MacGillivray, 1921, The Coccidae, p. 311. 



type-species: Chionaspis flava Green, 1899, by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



Recent authors (Rao, 1949 : 59-60) have placed this name as a synonym of 

 Unaspis MacGillivray. 



Amonostherium Morrison and Morrison, 1922, U.S. Natl. Mus. Proc. 

 60, Art, 12 (No. 2407): 48. 



type-species : Dactylopius lichtensioides Cockerell, 1897, by original designa- 

 tion and monotypy. 



This genus was established for a rather common western U.S. pseudococcid 

 and it possibly can be included in the phenacoccine series of genera. 



Amorphococcus Green, 1902, Ent. Monthly Mag. 38 : 261. 



type-species: Amorphococcus mesuae Green, 1902, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



This genus was assigned to the Asterolecaniidae by its describer but it has been 

 associated recently by Borchsenius, 1960d : 221, 223, with Lecaniodiaspis Signoret 

 and other genera in the Lecaniodiaspididae. 



Ampelocecis Amyot, 1847, Soc. Ent. de France Ann. (ser. 2)5: 502. 



This was proposed as a uninomial replacement for Coccus vitis Linnaeus ; hence 

 it is without status from the original publication. Lindinger, 1932f : 199, dis- 

 cussed an "Ampelocecis vitis Amy. 1847=? Phenacoccus aceris," so the name 

 might have status of sorts from 1932. 



Anamaspis Leonardi, 1906, Portici K. Scuola Super, di Agr. Ann. (ser. 

 2) 6:4,22. 



type-species : Leucaspis loewi Colvee, 1882, by monotypy. 



Some recent workers (Ferris, 1937d : 104, Balachowsky, 1953g : 842) have re- 

 garded this name as a synonym of Leucaspis Targioni-Tozzetti. 



Anamefiorinia Leonardi, 1906, Eeclia (1905) 3: 17, 48. 



type-species : Fiorinia casuariniae Maskell, 1897, by subsequent designation 

 by MacGillivray, 1921 : 372. 



Recent workers (Balachowsky, 3953g: 842) have accepted this as a valid genus 

 related to Fiorinia Targioni-Tozzetti. 



Anaparaputo Borchsenius, 1962, Akad. Nauk SSSR Zool. Inst, Trudy 

 30 : 224. 



type-species : Anaparaputo liui Borchsenius, 19G1, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



The describer placed this genus close to Paraputo Laing in the Pseudococcidae, 

 Planococcini.
