Key to puparia of species of Ceraleurodicus View in CoL
1 Body asymmetrical or, if symmetrical, body elongate-oblong, tapering at posterior and anterior ends................... 2
- Body symmetrical and round to oval/elongate-oval........................................................... 5
2 (1) Body elongate-oblong or banana-shaped................................................................... 3
- Body broader and oval-shaped ( Figs 2a View FIGURE 2 , 3a View FIGURE 3 ). Well-developed side of dorsum with 4 subequal compound pores: 1 cephalothoracic and 1 on each of abdominal segments III, IV, and V; occasionally a smaller one also on VI ( Figs 2a View FIGURE 2 , 3a View FIGURE 3 ). Distribution: Guyana. Host(s) unknown..................................................................... boteh Canty sp. nov.
3 (2) Body banana-shaped ( Fig. 7a View FIGURE 7 ) or elongate-oblong if symmetrical ( Fig. 7b View FIGURE 7 ). Well-developed side of dorsum with 3–4 large, subequal compound pores ( Fig. 7a View FIGURE 7 ): 1 cephalothoracic and 1 on each of abdominal segments III, IV; occasionally also on abdominal segment V; each compound pore encircled by a darkened and sclerotised ring and exuding a long, dark, robust axial process extending well beyond puparial margin ( Fig. 7f View FIGURE 7 ). Distribution: Belize, Brazil, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama. On various hosts................................................................................ keris Martin View in CoL
- Body banana-shaped only. Compound pores also found on abdominal segments VI or VII, but sometimes not on V; compound pores not encircled by a darkened and sclerotised ring and not exuding a long, dark, robust axial process................ 4
4 (3) Compound pores paired and subequal in size: 1 cephalothoracic pair and 1 pair on each of abdominal segments III, IV, and VII; final pair located posterior to VO, beside anterior edge of 9th pair of rays ( Figs 4a View FIGURE 4 , 5a View FIGURE 5 ). Furrow present along the 9th pair of rays, running from the pore to the puparial margin, which is slightly indented at this point ( Fig 4e View FIGURE 4 ). Rays wide, more than 3 times as wide as the compound pores ( Figs 4a View FIGURE 4 , 5a View FIGURE 5 ). Distribution: Trinidad. On Citrus (Rutaceae) .... brianeno Canty sp. nov.
- Subequal compound pores present only on well-developed side: 1 cephalothoracic and 1 on each of abdominal segments III, IV, V, and VI ( Fig. 10a View FIGURE ). A smaller abdominal compound pore present on less-developed side, on abdominal segment VII, posterior and to the side of VO, on 9th ray, without furrow ( Fig. 10f View FIGURE ). Rays narrow, approximately 2–3 times as wide as the compound pores ( Fig. 10a View FIGURE ). Distribution: Brazil, Belize.

6 (5) Body ovoid ( Fig. 6a View FIGURE 6 ). Cephalothoracic region without a medial dark spot. 1 pair of small compound pores towards anterior margin of abdominal segment III ( Fig. 6a View FIGURE 6 ); anterior margins of pores associated with a group of small pores ( Fig. 6b View FIGURE 6 ). Distribution: Brazil. On Nectandra (Lauraceae) View in CoL .............................................. hempeli View in CoL Costa Lima
- Body round ( Fig. 1a View FIGURE 1 ). Cephalothoracic region with a medial dark spot between the two compound pores ( Fig. 1a View FIGURE 1 ). Pair of small compound pores towards anterior margin of abdominal segment III absent; anterior margins of pores not associated with a group of small pores ( Fig. 1a View FIGURE 1 ). Distribution: Brazil and Trinidad. On Cocos nucifera (Arecaceae) View in CoL .... assymmetrus (Bondar) View in CoL
7 (5) Body broadly ovoid ( Fig. 9a View FIGURE 9 ). 6 pairs of large compound pores: 1 cephalothoracic pair and 1 pair on each of abdominal segments III, IV, V, VI, and VII ( Fig. 9a View FIGURE 9 ). Distribution: Brazil. On Cocos nucifera (Arecaceae) View in CoL ......... splendidus Hempel View in CoL
- Body elongate-oval. Abdomen with 3–4 pairs of small compound pores, and 1 posterior-most pair reduced in size........ 8
8 (7) Body broader, approximately 1.4–1.5 times as long as wide ( Fig. 8a View FIGURE 8 ). Dorsum with 8 pairs of lateral rays leading mesad from margin ( Fig. 8a View FIGURE 8 ). 5 pairs of abdominal compound pores: 1 pair of large pores on each of abdominal segments III, IV, V, and VII; 1 pair of smaller compound pores on abdominal segment VII, on the 8th pair of rays, near the puparial margin ( Fig. 8a View FIGURE 8 ). Distribution: Brazil. Host(s) unknown.......................................................... neivai (Bondar) View in CoL
