The role of endosymbionts in the evolution of haploid‐male genetic systems in scale insects (Coccoidea) [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2012
There is an extraordinary diversity in genetic systems across species, but this variation remains poorly understood. In part, this is because the mechanisms responsible for transitions between systems are often unknown.

ADAPTATIONS IN SCALE INSECTS

Annual Review of Entomology, 1997
▪ Abstract  Many unusual features of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) can be explained as historical legacy. Developmental specializations in ancestral coccoids resulted in a neotenous adult female and a drastic metamorphosis of the male. Subsequent evolution led to numerous, often convergently derived, adaptations to parasitic life on higher ...

Scale insect genus names and their families in the scale insects (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Coccomorpha), a supplement

Zootaxa, 2020
A list of genus names in the scale insects published between 2014 and the end of 2019 is provided; it follows on from an earlier comprehensive list of the names published between 1758 and the end of 2013. Each genus name and its type species are assigned to one of the 53 scale insect families now recognised.

The visual system of male scale insects

Naturwissenschaften, 2008
Animal eyes generally fall into two categories: (1) their photoreceptive array is convex, as is typical for camera eyes, including the human eye, or (2) their photoreceptive array is concave, as is typical for the compound eye of insects. There are a few rare examples of the latter eye type having secondarily evolved into the former one. When viewed in

Observations on Scale-Insects (Coccidae).—VI

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1917
Female. Dorsum nude and densely chitinised. Marsupium occupying practically the whole of the interior. Venter (sternites) remaining attached to the food-plant. Legs and antennae present. Cephalic margin with a strongly developed clypeus, lying prone over the mentum. Abdominal stigmata present.
