About this ebook
This revisionary study of the genus Asterolecanium has evolved from unsuccessful attempts to identify accurately an injurious member of the genus which evidently was introduced into the United States and from difficulty experienced in satisfying numerous requests for correct identifications of other economically important species. Consideration of literature and specimens in these efforts disclosed a degree of confusion regarding many of the especially destructive species which could be clarified only through a critical classificatory review of the kind here presented. In this publication the writer has attempted to provide descriptions and illustrations adequate for the identification of the intended species and a classification of these species based primarily on a critical study of their morphology.
