Distribution: Madeira

References: Balachowsky (1939), Vieira et al. (1983).

Comments: Balachowsky (1939) collected this species on Ficus carica and reported that, apparently, it was not differentiable from Pseudococcus citri Risso v. coleorum Marchal. Vieira et al. (1983) did not find it in the Island. This is possibly a misidentification of Planococcus citri (Risso) .

* Pseudococcus maritimus (Ehrhorn, 1900)

Distribution: Madeira

References: Balachowsky (1939), Vieira et al. (1983)

Comments: reported by Balachowsky (1939) from specimens collected at Funchal, Câmara de Lobos and S.Vicente, on several ornamental plants and Trifolium sp., in 1936. According to the present knowledge on the Pseudococcus maritimus complex ( Miller et al. 1984, Gimpel & Miller 1996) this is possibly a misidentification of P. viburni .
