Diplacaspis Jacobson of Mann, 1969, U.S. Natl. Mus. Bui. 256: 

 150. 



The name Diplacaspis Jacobson (1924, Rev. Russe d'Ent. 18: 239), represent- 

 ing a genus of the Coleoptera, was interjected into Coccoidea literature by 

 Mann, who published the new combination u Diplacaspis echinocacti (Bouche)." 

 Diplacaspis Jacobson of Mann presumably was a lapsus for Diaspis Costa. 



According to Neave (1939, Nomencl. Zool. 2: 105), Jacobson proposed Dipla- 

 caspis as a new name for Diaspis Lacordaire, 1848, the latter being preoccu- 

 pied by Diaspis Costa, 1828, in the Hemiptera.
