AX ANNOTATED LIST OF GENERIC NAMES OF THE COCCOIDEA 159 



Poliaspoides MacGillivray, 1921, The Coccidae, p. 309. 



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

 monotypy. 



The author placed this genus in the Diaspidini. Lindinger, 1937 : 193, said 

 " = Dycryptaspis Ckll." [Odonaspis], Ferris, 1937a: 6, 33, considered the 

 genus valid but transferred it to the Odonaspidini. Balachowsky, 1953g: 750, 

 760, placed the name as a synonym of Rugasp idiot us MacGillivray. 



Pollinia Targioni-Tozzetti, 1868, (separate) Soc. Ital. di Sci. Nat. 

 Atti 11 : 41 ; 1869, 11 : 734 ; 1869, Soc, Ent. Ital. Bui. 1 : 263. 



type-spectes : (Pollinia costae Targioni-Tozzetti, 1868) = Coccus pollini A. 

 Costa, 1857, by monotypy. 



Targioni-Tozzetti proposed this genus for the A. Costa species but with change 

 of the specific name from pollini to costae. Since Rules do not permit such a 

 change, the type must stand as cited above. A. Costa. 1877, noted the establish- 

 ment of the new genus for his Coccus pollini and accepted the need for it, but 

 rejected both the generic and specific names proposed. He substituted Cisticoc- 

 cus, presenting the combination as Cisticoccus pollini, thus making his generic 

 name an isogenotypic synonym of Pollinia Targioni-Tozzetti. Pollinia Targioni- 

 Tozzetti has been accepted as a valid genus in the Asterolecaniidae. Borch- 

 senius, 1960d : 128, placed it in the Cerococcinae, Polliniini. 



Pollyocellaria Imliof, 1900, Biol. Centbl. 20 : 527, nomen nudum. 



The author based this genus on the adult male of two coccids without men- 

 tion of a species name. He suggested a possible relation to "Ortherlzjia cataph- 

 racta, Sh[a]w." 



Polyaspis Leonardi, 1898, in Berlese and Leonardi, Ann. di Agr. Rome 

 (ser. 2) : 12. 



Leonardi presented this apparent misspelling of Poliaspis as; "Maskeliella 

 Leon. (Polyaspis Maskl.)" Lindinger, 1935: 131, and 1937: 193, took this up 

 as the proper spelling but later, 1943b : 224, accepted Poliaspis as correct. 

 Other workers have not accepted Polyaspis. 



Polyocellaria Sharp, 1901, Zool. Eec. (1900) 37: 40, 332. 



A lapsus for Pollyocellaria Imhof. The name was placed under Aphididae by 

 Sharp. Kirkaldy, 1906, Canad. Ent. 38 : 10, repeated this, but indicated that the 

 placement was doubtful. Sanders, 1906 : 2, used this spelling but placed the 

 name in the Ortheziinae. Kiritchenko, 1940 : 120, listed the name erroneously 

 in combination with radicumgraminis as a synonym of Lecanopsis Targioni- 

 Tozzetti. 



Polystomophora Borchsenius, 1948, Akad. Nauk SSSK Dok. (n. s.) 

 61 : 955. 



type-species : Phcnacoccus ostiaplurimus Kiritchenko, 1940, by original des- 

 ignation and monotypy. 

 The author placed this genus in the Pseudococcinae close to Mirococcus 

 Borchsenius.
