Aleurothrixus Quaintance & Baker, 1914: 103 View in CoL . Type species: Aleyrodes howardi Quaintance, 1907 , by original designation. Aleurothrixus (Philodamus) Quaintance & Baker, 1917: 404 . [Synonymised by Mound & Halsey, 1978: 61]
Hempelia Sampson & Drews, 1941: 166 . [Synonymised by Martin, 2005: 20]
Comments. There are presently 17 described species accommodated within Aleurothrixus ( Martin & Mound, 2007) , generally of neotropical origin, with several undescribed species represented in the BMNH and USNM collections. Three Asian species originally described in Aleurothrixus were transferred to a new genus, Asiothrixus , by Dubey et al. (2010). Aleurothrixus comprises species characterised by the dorsal disc being almost completely separated from the submarginal area by a fold, the margin with coarse teeth each with a basal gland, and the vasiform orifice subcircular with lingular tip concealed ( Fig. 3). Puparia of most species occur in groups under leaves, often secreting copious waxy “wool” ( Fig. 44).
