Abstract

The occurrence of the scale insect family Conchaspididae (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha) in the Philippines is reported for the first time, based on a collection of false armored scale insects from Hoya landgrantensis Kloppenburg et al. (Apocynaceae), and a few other wax plants that are endemic to the Philippines. The minute scale insects belong to the genus Conchaspis Cockerell, and are identified as Conchaspis angraeci Cockerell, the only widespread species in this family. The occurrence of C. angraeci on H. cagayanensis, H. landgrantensis, and H. pimenteliana also constitute new host records and the potential of this insect to become a pest of domesticated ornamental Hoya is also noted, should their population reach levels injurious to plants.

菲律宾夹竹桃科(Hoya spp.)甲壳虫科(Conchaspididae)和anggraeci Cockerell甲壳虫(半翅目:甲壳虫科)首次报道

根据菲律宾特有蜡质植物Hoya landgrantensis Kloppenburg et al. (Apocynaceae)的假甲鳞虫和其他一些蜡质植物的收集，首次报道了在菲律宾出现的蚧虫科Conchaspididae(半翅目:Coccomorpha)。小鳞虫属Conchaspis Cockerell，被鉴定为Conchaspis anggraeci Cockerell，是该科中唯一广泛分布的物种。在cagayanensis、H. landgrantensis和H. pimenteliana上出现的C. angraeci也构成了新的寄主记录，并指出当其数量达到对植物有害的水平时，该昆虫有可能成为驯化观赏花的害虫。
