AN ANNOTATED LIST OF GENERIC NAMES OF THE COCCOIDEA 5 



Af rotachardina Chamberlin, 1923, Bui. Ent, Res. 14 : 201. 



type-species : Tachardia longisetosa Newstead, 1911, by original designation. 



This genus was accepted in the latest catalog of lac insects, Kapur, 1958. 

 Balachow.sky, 1950 : 9, assigned it to Tachardinina. 



Agrophaspis Borchsenius and Williams, 1963, Brit. Mus. (Nat. Hist.) 

 Ent. Bui. 13 : 375. 



type-species: Aonidia buxtoni Laing, 1933, by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



The authors presented this genus in the Parlatoriini, close to Greeniella 

 Cockerell in characters of the adult female. 



Akermes Cockerell, 1902, Canad. Ent, 31 : 89-90. 



type-species : Akermes bruneri Cockerell, 1902, by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



This genus is one of a group of several New World genera of which Toumeyella 

 Cockerell apparently was first described. They belong in the Coccidae (str.) 

 but have not been critically studied in recent years. 



Albastaspis MacGillivray, 1921, The Coccidae, p. 295 (Alhataspis, pp. 

 290,475). 



type-species: Mytilaspis nivea Maskell, 1895. by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



The describer indicated that the relationships of the genus are with Ftisilaspis 

 MacGillivray and Pinnaspis Cockerell. MacGillivray presented this name in two 

 spellings. We are inclined to the opinion that his original intent was to present 

 the alternate spelling as his established genus name, but Ferris, 1941a : 11, dis- 

 cussed this confusion, and arbitrarily chose Albastaspis, which must stand accord- 

 ing to Article 24 of the 1961 Code. 



Albataspis MacGillivray, 1921, The Coccidae, pp. 290, 475. 



type-species : Mytilaspis nivea Maskell, 1895, by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



See discussion under Albastaspis MacGillivray. 



Alecaniochiton Lindinger, 1937, Ent, Jahrb. 46 : 178. 

 An emendation of Alecanocliiton Hempel. 



Alecaniopsis Lindinger, 1932, Konowia 11 : 178 ; 1937, Ent, Jahrb. 46 : 

 178. 

 An emendation of Alecanopsis Cockerell. 



Alecanium Morrison, 1921, Philippine Jour. Sci. 18 : 648. 



type-species: Alecanium hirsutum Morrison, 1921, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



Originally assigned to the Coccidae (str.), this genus has not been restudied 

 for more precise assignment within the family.
