Comments

Coccobius furvus is close to Coccobius viggianii Yasnosh and Coccobius nunu Japoshvili. In C. viggianii there are polygonal cells on both the mesoscutum and scutellum, and elongated cells on the middle of mesoscutum and scutellum. Coccobius viggianii and C. furvus have fewer than 10 setae on the submarginal vein, while there are at least 10 in C. nunu .
