H o s t s: Coccidae View in CoL : Coccus View in CoL hesperidum (LINNAEUS, 1758) ( COMPERE 1931b), Parasaissetia nigra (NIETNER, 1861) ( COMPERE 1931b) View in CoL .

D i s t r i b u t i o n: Asmara, Ghescinascim, Nefasit.

Coccophagus eritreaensis View in CoL is also recorded from Angola and Ethiopia. As the synonymy with Coccophagus pulvinariae COMPERE, 1931 View in CoL proposed by FLANDERS (1959) and PECK (1963: 313-314) has not been accepted by ANNECKE & INSLEY (1971, 1974), the specific status should be checked.
