Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
During the investigation of mealybug parasites in Trinidad seven species of Aenasius, one of them new, and a new species of Zarhopalus have been reared. The new species are described herein.
Genus Aenasius
Compere, (Proc. Hawaii. ent. Soc., 9, pp. 383-404, 1937) gave a comprehensive review of the genus, described several new species and provided a key for the separation of the known species. Recently three additional species have been described, Aenasius masii, by Domenichini (Boll. 2001. agrar. bachic., 17, 157-180, 1951) from Peru, Aenasius theobromae by Kerrich (Bull. ent. Res., 44, 789-810, 1953) from Trinidad, and Aenasius bolowi by Mercet (Rev. Acad., Madrid, 41, 461-468, 1947) from Costa Rica.
