AN ANNOTATED LIST OF GENERIC NAMES OF THE COCCOIDEA 91 



Hemiberleisa Balachowsky, 1956, Mus. Roy. clu Congo Beige [Ter- 

 vuren] Ann. (n. s.) Sci. Zool. 3 : 130. 



A lapsus for Hemiberlesia Cockerell. 



Hemiberlesea Lindinger, 1908, Berlin. Ent. Ztschr. (1907) 52: 96. 

 An emendation of Hemiberlesia Cockerell. 



Hemiberlesia Cockerell, 1897, in Leonardi, Riv. di Patol. Veg. 5 : 375 ; 

 1897, U.S. Dept. Agr., Div. Ent,, Tech. Ser. 6 : 9, 12, 30. 



type-species: Aspidiotus rapax Comstock, 1881, through substitution of 

 Hemiberlesia for preoccupied Aspidites Berlese and Leonardi, 1896. 



Fernald, 1903b : 277, erroneously listed the first usage of Hemiberlesia as by 

 Saccardo, 1895 : 50, the combination there being ''Aspidiotus cameliae.'" The 

 citations offered above do not coincide with the one presented in Neave, 1939, 

 Nomen. Zool. II : 602, which we think is not the earliest citation of the genus. Re- 

 cent coccid students have accepted Hemiberlesia as a zoologically valid aspidiotine 

 genus, but have differed on the species that may properly be included under it. 



Hemiberlesiana Thiem and Gerneck, 1934, Arb. iiber Physiol, u. An- 

 gew. Ent. 1:132, 230, 232. 



type-species : "cameliae''' — presumed to be Aspidiotus camelliae Signoret, 

 1869, by original designation. 



The peculiarities of the Thiem and Gerneck taxonomic method are such that 

 information is difficult to extract from the text, but the page 232 citation does 

 appear to include a positive type fixation although it is not certain whose 

 "cameliae'" is involved. The name becomes a synonym of Hemiberlesia through 

 identity of type-species, for rapax Comstock and camelliae Signoret are believed 

 to denote the same species. 



Hemiberlesiella Thiem and Gerneck, 1934, Arb. iiber Physiol, u. 

 Angew. Ent, 1 : 132, 230, 232. 



type-species: [Aspidiotus~\ canariensis [Lindinger], 1911, by original 

 designation. 



Ferris, 1943a : 99, and Balachowsky, 1951 : 650 ; 1958b : 288, placed this name as 

 a synonym of Rhizaspidiotus MacGillivray, 1921. 



Hemicliionaspis Cockerell, 1897, Amer. Nat. 31 : 59£. 



type-species : Ghionaspis aspidistrae Signoret, 1869, by original designation. 



The author presented this as a subgenus of Ghionaspis Signoret. The name is 

 currently considered a synonym of Pinnaspis Cockerell, 1892. See Ferris and 

 Rao, 1947 : 25-27. 



Hemiclonaspis Singh, 1960, The Mango, London, p. 300. 

 A lapsus for Hemichionaspis Cockerell. 



Hemicoccus Lameere, 1936, Precis de Zoologie, Inst. Zool. Torley- 

 Rousseau, Brussels, 4 : 415. 



This name was used as an alternate to Kermes; e.g., "Hemicoccus (Kermes) 

 vermilio et ilicis" and has no nomenclatorial standing.
