Abstract

This paper deals with the results of a revision on the genus Lecanopsis
Targioni Tozzetti (Coccidae) carried out during the last years. The revision
highlighted synonymies among species and misidentifications of species erroneously
placed in this genus. Before the present revision the genus included 17
species, but at the end of this study the number of Lecanopsis species was reduced
to 11, plus 3 unrecognisable species. All the Lecanopsis species and their young
instars (when known) have been redescribed and illustrated. In addition, two new
species, L. marottai and L. mirabilis, recently collected in Italy, are described and
illustrated.
