Comments. Dialeurodes has traditionally been the most speciose whitefly genus. Following a cladistic review by Jensen (1999, 2001), resulting in many species being transferred to Singhiella or Massilieurodes , over 120 described species are still included in Dialeurodes ( Martin & Mound, 2007) , with Aleuroclava almost equally speciose. Dialeurodes is characterised by the following characters: outline usually oval, margin smooth but tracheal openings at margin always marked by a distinct pore, vasiform orifice very small in comparision with whole puparium, usually subcircular and fully occupied by operculum, with lingula often obscured ( Martin, 2005). In Dialeurodes sensu stricto, which includes D. citri , below, the ventral tracheal folds are punctuated by tiny dots or stipples.
