The neococcoids form a mono- phyletic group supported by both morphological and genetic data. In contrast, the monophyly of the archaeococcoids is uncertain and the higher level ranks within it have been controversial, particularly since the late Professor Jan Koteja introduced his multi-family classification for scale insects in 1974. Recent phylogenetic studies using molecular and morphological data support the recognition of up to 15 extant families of archaeococcoids, including 11 families for the former Margarodidae sensu lato, vindicating Koteja’s views. Archaeococcoids are represented better in the fossil record than neococcoids, and have an adequate record through the Tertiary and Cretaceous but almost no putative coccoid fos- sils are known from earlier.

WILLIAMS2 1Division of Evolution, Ecology & Genetics, Research School of Biology, The Australian National University, Acton, Canberra, A.C.T. 2601, Australia 2The Natural History Museum, Department of Life Sciences (Entomology), London SW7 5BD, UK 3Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new scale insect, Aolacoccus angophorae gen. nov. and sp. nov. (Eriococcidae), is described from the bark of Ango- phora (Myrtaceae) growing in the Sydney area of New South Wales, Australia. These insects do not produce honeydew, are not ant-tended and probably feed on cortical parenchyma. The adult female is pupillarial as it is retained within the cuticle of the penultimate (second) instar. The crawlers (mobile first-instar nymphs) emerge via a flap or operculum at the posterior end of the abdomen of the second-instar exuviae. The adult and second-instar females, second-instar male and first-instar nymph, as well as salient features of the apterous adult male, are described and illustrated. The adult female of this new taxon has some morphological similarities to females of the non-pupillarial palm scale Phoenicococcus marlatti Cockerell (Phoenicococcidae), the pupillarial palm scales (Halimococcidae) and some pupillarial genera of armoured scales (Diaspididae), but is related to other Australian Myrtaceae-feeding eriococcids.

    Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 38(1). 1984. 51-56 TWO INTERESTING ARTIFICIAL HYBRID CROSSES IN THE GENERA HEMILEUCA AND ANISOTA (SATURNIIDAE) RICHARD STEVEN PEIGLER1 303 Shannon Drive, Greenville, South Carolina 29615 AND BENJAMIN D. WILLIAMS The Lawrence Academy, Groton, Massachusetts 01450 ABSTRACT. Two crosses were reared to the adult stage with saturniid moths from different areas of the United States. These were Hemileuca lucina 5 x H. nevadensis Q reared in Massachusetts and Texas on Salix, and Anisata senataria 5 x A. aslari Q reared in Connecticut on Quercus caccinea. Larvae and adults of both crosses were interme­ diate. Descriptions and figures of the hybrids are given. Several isolating mechanisms between the parent species were tested and are discussed. Dozens of artificial crosses in the Saturniidae have been successfully reared since the previous century, but virtually all of these have in­ volved species of the subfamily Saturniinae. This paper deals with two remarkable crosses obtained by the junior author utilizing small satur­ niid moths belonging to the subfamilies Hemileucinae and Ceratocam­ pinae.2 In both crosses, species native to the Southwest were reared in the Northeast and females from those rearings attracted congeneric diurnal males native to the Northeast. The species involved were Hemileuca lucina Henry Edwards, H. nevadensis Stretch, Anisota senatoria 0. E. Smith) and A. oslari W. Rothschild. For information on the adult morphology, wing pattern, immature stages, hostplants, reproductive behavior, and geographical distributions of these four parent species, the reader is referred to works by Ferguson (1971) and Riotte and Peigler (1981).
