Monophleba Latreille, 1829, in Cuvier, Le Kegne Animal (ed. 2) 5 : 

 233. 



A lapsus for Monophlebus Guerin-Meneville. A male coccid was here charac- 

 terized briefly without specific name. 



Monophlebidus Morrison, 1927, Biol. Soc. Wash. Proc. 40 : 104. 



ttpe-species : Monophlebidus indicus Morrison, 1927, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



The author assigned this margarodid genus to the Monophlebinae, Monophle- 

 bini, group 1. 



Monophleboides Morrison, 1927, Biol. Soc. Wash. Proc. 40 : 104. 



type-species: Monophlebus gymnocarpi Hall, 1926, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



The author placed this margarodid genus in the Monophlebinae, Monophlebini, 

 group 1, closely related to and possibly zoologically identical with Palaeococcus 

 Cockerell. See Morrison, 1928 : 129, for discussion of relationships. 



Monophlebulus Cockerell, 1902, Entomologist 35 : 233, 318. 



type-species : Monophlebus fuscus Maskell, 1S93, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



Morrison, 1928: 174, associated this margarodid genus with Nodulicoccus Mor- 

 rison in the Monophlebinae, Monophlebulini.

 Familien des Thierreiche, p. 428 ; Burmeister, 1835, Handb. der Ent. 

 v. 2, abt, 1 : 80. 



type-species : Monophlebus atripennis Burmeister, 1835, by subsequent desig- 

 nation by Cockerell, 1902q : 232, 1902r : 317-318. 



Although this name was credited to Leach in early works on coccids (Bur- 

 meister, 1835:80; Westwood, 1845:21; Signoret, 1875a: 363), no recent coccid 

 worker has reported its presence in any of Leach's work. Cockerell, 1902r : 317, 

 reported that an exhaustive search by C. H. Fernald had failed to locate it there. 

 Monophlebus first appeared in an article by Guerin-Meneville, 1827: 99, and later 

 in the same year in a German translation of Latreille's Families Naturelles 

 du Regne Animal. Two years later Latreille, 1829 : 233, applied the name, Mono- 

 phleba, to this same zoological unit. The genus acquired named species when 

 Burmeister, 1835: 80, placed in it "M. atripennis Kl. $ " [actually Monophlebus 

 atripennis Burmeister n. sp., 1835] and "M. fuscipennis n. sp." The first type 

 fixation that has been found was by Cockerell, 1902q : 232, 1902r : 317-318, where 

 atripennis Burmeister, 1835, was selected as type and phases of the above situation 

 reviewed.
