Abstract

Two African soft scale insects, Toumeyella lomagundiae Hall and T. obunca De Lotto, are transferred to Hallicoccus gen. nov. The adult females of both species are redescribed, and the first-instar nymph of T. lomagundiae is described. A revised taxonomic key to separate the adult females is provided. The affinity of Hallicoccus gen. nov. with the genus Toumeyella Cockerell is briefly discussed. Copyright © 2007 Magnolia Press.
