AN ANNOTATED LIST OF GENERIC NAMES OF THE COCCOIDEA 185 



Sishania Ferris, 1950, Microentomology 15 : 12-13. 



type-species : Sishania nigropilata Ferris, 1950, by original designation and 

 monotypy. 



The author placed this genus in the Margarodidae, Monophlebinae, Drosichini, 

 most closely related to Drosicha Walker and Drosichiella Morrison. 



Sisyrococcus Hoy, 1962, New Zeal. Dept. Sci. and Indus. Ees. Bui. 

 146: 181. 



type-species: Rhizococcus intermedins Maskell, 1891, by original designa- 

 tion. 



The author placed this genus in the Briococcidae. 



Situlaspis MacGillivray, 1921, The Coccidae, p. 311. 



type-species : Pseudodiaspis condaliae Ferris, 1919, by original designation 

 and monotypy. 



The author placed this genus in the Diaspidini. Lindinger, 1937 : 196, rejected 

 its separation from Pseudodiaspis Cockerell. It was accepted as valid by Ferris, 

 1937 : SI-68, 120, and Balachowsky, 1954e : 167, who placed it in the Diaspidina, 

 group I, diaspiform. 



Solenaspidus Hollrung, 1914, Jahresber. liber Pflanz. (for 1912) 15: 

 338, 441. 



A lapsus for Selenaspidus Cockerell. 



Solenococcus Cockerell, 1899, 111. Nat. Hist. Survey Bui. 5 : 392. 



type-species : Solenophora fagi Maskell, 1890, by subsequent designation of 

 Fernald, 1903b : 58. 



The author proposed this name as a substitute for Solenophora Maskell, 1890, 

 on grounds of preoccupation by two prior publications of the name Solenophorus. 

 Cockerell {in lit., 1922) reversed himself on this substitution and expressed the 

 opinion that Solenophora is "validly constituted on the two-letter rule." At the 

 moment the matter is not of first importance since both names are currently 

 placed in synonymy under Cerococcus Comstock {see Ferris, 1955a: 31), but a 

 critical study of all the elements now included in Cerococcus might develop a basis 

 for splitting the genus as currently accepted, and the reestablishment of Soleno- 

 phora- Solenococcus as a valid segregate. 



Solenophora Maskell, 1890, New Zeal. Inst. Trans, and Proc. (1889) 

 22: 139. 



type-species: Solenophora fagi Maskell, 1899, by identity of Solenophora 

 with Solenococcus Cockerell, 1899. 



This name is currently regarded as preoccupied and replaced by Solenococcus 

 Cockerell, 1899, and as belonging in synonymy under Cerococcus Comstock.
