Abstract: | Six Asian species of Aulacaspis are studied on the supposition that they are related to A. australis Brimblecombe and A. constricta Takagi and De Faveri, mangrove-associated species in Australia: A. crawii (Cockerell) [=Diaspis crawii var. fulleri Cockcrell], A. mischocarpi (Cockerell and Robinson) [=Phenacaspis thoracica Robinson, n.syn.], A. alangii, n.sp. (Borneo, on Alangium), A. otophorae, n.sp. (Palawan, on Otophora), A. shoreae, n.sp. (Malaya, on Shorea), and A. fici, n.sp. (Malaya, on Ficus). One of them, A. crawii, is closely related to A. australis; the other five species are lumped under the mischocarpi species group, which may be responsible for the origin of A. constricta. Four of the six species, together with A. litsearum, n.sp. (India, on Litsea) and A. rosae (the type species of the genus) added for comparison, are examined for their growth patterns in the stage of the adult female by means of pairing full—grown adult females with teneral ones from the same samples. |
