 Arthropods of Economic Importance - Diaspididae of the World > Species: Family Diaspididae (Armoured scale insects)
Adult females are typical of the Coccoidea in being larviform, but can be distinguished from those of other families by: legs absent; antennae reduced to stumps, lacking articulation; abdominal segments IV-VIII fused into a sclerotized pygidium; and by secretion of a separate, non-living scale cover incorporating the shed cuticles (exuviae) of previous instars.
Adult male diaspidids differ from other male Coccoidea in lacking an obvious constriction between the head and prothorax, and in the detailed structure of the thorax; they also have very long genitalia.

 Hemiptera at the Museum of Entomology (FSCA)
The Coccoidea collection is curated to the highest level possible in the FSCA.
All scale insect microscope slides are permanently mounted in Canadian balsam, and labels have been made with a typewriter or laser printer for many years.
The collection is mostly of Florida species; however, many samples from the circum-Caribbean area have been added in the past 24 years.

The soft-scales (Coccidae) are one of about 20 families of the scale insect superfamily Coccoidea.
The females are all sap-sucking and all 1100 known species are potential pests in agriculture, horticulture or forestry.
As the females of all Coccoidea are of potential economic importance, this book will be of value to any entomologist who needs to identify soft-scales either for quarantine or for research involving natural enemies for biological control.

The lobate lac scale, Paratachardina lobata lobata (Chamberlin) (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Kerriidae), a scale insect native to India and Sri Lanka, was found for the first time in Florida in August 1999 by personnel of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
No male stages are known and the mature females are about 1.5-2 mm long and have two pairs of prominent lobes.
Because it is predicted that a very large percentage of trees and shrubs in both the urban and natural areas of Florida will become infested with this scale insect, we are investigating biological control as the only viable option for control in the long term.

 lobate lac scale - Paratachardina lobata lobata
The lobate lac scale, Paratachardina lobata (Chamberlin) (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Coccoidea: Kerriidae), a scale insect native to India and Sri Lanka, was found for the first time in Florida in August 1999 by personnel of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry (DPI) (Hamon 2001).
The identification of the species by Avas Hamon of DPI was confirmed by D. Miller of the Systematic Entomology Laboratory, U. Department of Agriculture, Beltsville, MD. This first record was on a hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) in the town of Davie (Broward County).
Of the 28 families of Coccoidea recognized by Miller and Ben-Dov (2002), 11 are represented by species native to Florida (Aclerdidae, Asterolecaniidae, Diaspididae, Cerococcidae, Coccidae, Conchaspidae, Eriococcidae, Kermesidae, Margarodidae, Ortheziidae, and Pseucococcidae).
