Abstract

Trioza turougueisp. nov., a new species of jumping plant lice (Hemiptera, Triozidae) from Taiwan, is described and illustrated based on adults and immatures. The latter induce pea-shaped galls on the stems ofCinnamomum osmophloeumKaneh. (Lauraceae). The gall phenology of the new species is described. A list of species of Triozidae associated withCinnamomumin the Old World is provided. The following nomenclatorial acts are proposed:Trioza inflataLi, 1992 =Trioza xiangicamphoraeLi, 1992,syn. nov.;Siphonaleyrodes formosanusTakahashi, 1932,stat. rev., is removed from synonymy withTrioza cinnamomi(Boselli, 1931).
