Lachnocecis Amyot, 1847, Soc. Ent. de France Ann. (ser. 2) 5 : 503. 



A monomial designation to replace a generic and specific name. It has no 

 validity as a generic name. 



Lachnodiella von Ihering, 1907, Bot. Jahrb. 39 : 680, nomen nudum ; 

 Hempel, 1910, Kev. Mus. Paulista [Sao Paulo] 8 : 52. 



type-species: Lachnodiella cecropiae Hempel, 1910, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



Ferris, 1955 : 2, redescribed the type-species of this pseudococcine genus and 

 noted certain resemblances to Lachnodius Maskell. 



Lachnodiopsis Borchsenius, 1960, Ent. Obozr. 39 : 923. 



type-species : Lachnodiopsis szemaoensis Borchsenius, 1960, by original 

 designation. 



The author placed this genus close to Delococcus Ferris and Lachnodiella 

 Hempel in the Pseudococcidae. 



Lachnodius Maskell, 1896, New Zeal. Inst. Trans, and Proc. (1895) 

 28 : 400. 



type-species : Dactylopius eucalypti Maskell, 1892, by designation of Fernald, 

 1903b : 95. 



Morrison and Morrison, 1922 : 44^8, redescribed this genus and its type-species. 

 They expressed the opinion that it was not closely related to the Pseudococcus 

 Westwood group of genera and suggested a possible connection with Sphaero- 

 coccopsis Cockerell. Ferris, 1955: 1, also commented on the uncertainty of its 

 position in the Pseudococcidae. 



Lackshadia Mahdihassan, 1931, Zool. Anz. 94 : 296. 

 A lapsus for Lakshadia Mahdihassan. 



Lacombia Goux, 1940, Soc. d'Hist. Nat. l'Afrique du Nord, Bui. 31 : 

 62. 



type-species : Ripersia oouhelieri Goux, 1938, by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



The author presented this as a subgenus of Ripersia Signoret, characterized 

 chiefly by the absence of multilocular glands. 



Lacsha Roxburgh, 1790, Asiatic Researches (Asiatic Soc. Bengal, 

 Trans.) 2: 361. 



Mahdihassan, 1935a, stated that this name has priority over Laccifer Oken, 

 1815. We have found no hint of a binomial treatment of the name in this citation 

 and consider it a colloquial or common name. 



Lagosinia Cockerell, 1899, Canad. Ent. 31 : 332. 



type-species : Lecanium strachani Cockerell, 1S98, by original designation 

 and monotypy.

 CockerelTs original treatment.
