Diaspididae —Odonaspidinae

Froggattiella mcclurei Ben-Dov (1988)

Described from mainland China but also reported from HK on Bambusa sp. by Ben-Dov (1988), with voucher material in USNM.

Froggattiella penicillata (Green, 1905)

Reported from HK by Ben-Dov (1988), based on a US quarantine interception on Bambusa pervariabilis , with voucher material in USNM.

Odonaspis greenii Cockerell (1902)

Reported from HK by Ben-Dov (1988), based on a US quarantine interception on Bambusa pervariabilis , with voucher material in USNM [Same data as for F. penicillata , above.]

Odonaspis morrisoni Beardsley (1966)

Reported from HK by Ben-Dov (1988), from Distichlis sp. at Sha Tau Kok (NT) with voucher material in UCD.

Odonaspis siamensis ( Takahashi, 1942)

While this work was in progress HK specimens were received at BMNH from Bambusa glaucescens cultivated variety “Fernleaf”, the first record from HK. Sadao Takagi (pers. comm.) also expressed the opinion that NHM material on loan to him [mixed with Kuwanaspis linearis , see above] answered the description of O. siamensis . This species was described from Thailand, in the genus Froggattiella , but Ben Dov (1988) retained it in Odonaspis , following Ferris (1955). Ben Dov also quoted several examined samples ( USNM) from China and one sample from the Philippines, all from species of Bambusa or Dendrocalamus .
