Chionaspis is a genus of scale insect. [1] In 2011 geographical sampling and analysis indicated a number of unnamed species in the genus Chionaspis. [2]
The following species are members of the genus Chionaspis: [3] [4]
Aspidiotus is a genus of armoured scales in the family Diaspididae. There are more than 100 described species in Aspidiotus.
Kuwanaspis is a genus of armoured scales in the family Diaspididae. These scale insects typically feed on Bamboo plants such as Phyllostachys heteroclada and Pleioblastus amarus.
Aulacaspis, is a scale insect genus in the family Diaspididae. The type species is Aulacaspis rosae.
Aspidiotini is a tribe in the armored scale insect family Diaspididae. They are found worldwide.
Leucaspidini is a tribe of armored scale insects.
Parlatoriini is a tribe in the armored scale insect family Diaspididae. Takagi (2002) indicated that the Parlatoriini appear to be phylogenetically related to the Smilacicola and the Odonaspidini. Takagi went on to say about the tropical east Asian Parlatoriini that, The current classification of their genera may be largely tentative because the adult females are simple-featured and much modified owing to the pupillarial mode of life, and also because the second instar nymphs are generally similar among parlatoriines, whether the adult females are pupillarial or not. Andersen found that separating out pupillarial forms into a separate subtribe, Gymnaspidina, was counterproductive, as being non-dispositive.
Aonidiini is a tribe of armored scale insects in the family Diaspididae.
Diaspidini is a tribe in the armored scale insect family Diaspididae. The insects are highly invasive, and are significant economic pests found worldwide.
Lepidosaphidini is a tribe of armored scale insects.
Chionaspidina is a subtribe of armored scale insects established by Borchenius. But unlike many of the subtribes recognized by Borchenius, this one was found to be morphologically valid by Takagi. Similarly, in molecular analysis, Andersen et al. found a clade roughly corresponding to the subtribe Chionaspidina.
Diaspidina is a subtribe of armored scale insects. It occurs mostly in the Americas and Africa, with a few species in tropical Asia. In the Americas Pseudoparlatoria is the largest genus, with Diaspis second; in Africa Diaspis is the largest genus. The grouping identified by Balachowsky in 1954 as the subtribe Diaspidina, are now the tribe Diaspidini.
Fioriniina is a subtribe of armored scale insects in the family Diaspididae. They are found almost exclusively in the Old World.
Lepidosaphes is a genus of armored scale insects in the family Diaspididae. There are at least 190 described species in Lepidosaphes, found worldwide.
Pseudaulacaspis is a genus of scales and mealybugs in the family Diaspididae. There are at least 60 described species in Pseudaulacaspis.
Hemiberlesia is a genus of armoured scales in the family Diaspididae. There are more than 50 described species in Hemiberlesia.
Parlatoria is a genus of scales and mealybugs in the family Diaspididae. There are at least 70 described species in Parlatoria.
Diaspis is a genus in the armored scale insect family Diaspididae. There are more than 50 described species in Diaspis.
Diaspidiotus is a genus of armoured scales in the family Diaspididae. There are more than 90 described species in Diaspidiotus, found worldwide.
Melanaspis is a genus of armoured scales in the family Diaspididae. There are more than 60 described species in Melanaspis.
