This list of generic names of the Coccoidea, or scale insects, is an outgrowth of a card catalog that has been maintained for many years in the identification unit of the organization currently known as the Entomology Research Division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. A catalog of names, with associated data, is a prerequisite for taxonomic and other investigations of coccids cared on at the Department of Agriculture, and is equally valuable to other persons undertaking similar studies on this group of insects.
A catalogue of the soft-scale insects of the world (Homoptera: Coccoidea: Cocidae) with data on geographical distribution, host plants, biology and economic importance. This catalogue lists 162 genera comprising 1090 species and subspecies which have been described since Linnaeus (1758) until the cutoff date of December 1991. Extensive data are presented on taxonomy, nomenclature, synonyms, geographical distribution, host plants, biology, and economic importance of the species. New combinations are established for 40 species. One species, namely Filippia subterranea Gomez-Menor Ortega, is newly synonymized with Lecanopsis formicarum Newstead.
