USA : Florida : Specimens from Duval, Hamilton, Highlands, and Volusia counties ( FSCA , dry and slide mounted, ethanol, dry-preserved pitted stems). Diagnosis. Description by Tuthill (1943 , as Arytaina amorphae ). Differs from other psyllids in Florida as indicated in the generic key above. Distribution. USA (FL, IA, NE) ( Hodkinson 1988 ). Host plants. Amorpha L. spp. ( Fabaceae ). Comments. This is a rare species in Florida . We have few Florida collections. The immatures produce pit galls in the stems of the plant. See comments above under Acizzia jamatonica for separation of these two superficially similar species. * Cacopsylla Ossiannilsson, 1970 Comments. No species are known from Florida , but the genus is included in the key because some species in this genus are significant pests, and there is risk of establishment in Florida . For example, Cacopsylla tobirae (Miyatake, 1964) , the pittosporum psyllid, has been intercepted in Florida (FSCA# E2015-1748). Pittosporum is a popular and lucrative ornamental plant.
