Coccidae
The Coccidae are a family of scale insects belonging to the superfamily Coccoidea. They are commonly known as soft scales, wax scales or tortoise scales. The females are flat with elongated oval bodies and a smooth integument which may be covered with wax. In some genera they possess legs but in others, they do not, and the antennae may be shortened or missing. The males may be winged or wingless. Genera There are >1,100 spp. in 171 genera worldwide. *Subfamily Myzolecaniinae ** '' Akermes'' ** '' Alecanium'' ** '' Alecanopsis'' ** '' Cribolecanium'' ** '' Cryptostigma'' ** '' Cyclolecanium'' ** '' Halococcus'' ** '' Houardia'' ** '' Megasaissetia'' ** '' Myzolecanium'' ** '' Neolecanium'' ** '' Paractenochiton'' ** '' Pseudophilippia'' ** '' Richardiella'' ** '' Torarchus'' ** '' Toumeyella'' ** '' Xenolecanium'' * '' Antecerococcus'' * '' Ceroplastes'' * ''Coccus A coccus (plural cocci) is any bacterium or archaeon that has a spherical, ovoid, or generally round shap ...

Scale Insect
Scale insects are small insects of the order Hemiptera, suborder Sternorrhyncha. Of dramatically variable appearance and extreme sexual dimorphism, they comprise the infraorder Coccomorpha which is considered a more convenient grouping than the superfamily Coccoidea due to taxonomic uncertainties. Adult females typically have soft bodies and no limbs, and are concealed underneath domed scales, extruding quantities of wax for protection. Some species are hermaphroditic, with a combined ovotestis instead of separate ovaries and testes. Males, in the species where they occur, have legs and sometimes wings, and resemble small flies. Scale insects are herbivores, piercing plant tissues with their mouthparts and remaining in one place, feeding on sap. The excess fluid they imbibe is secreted as honeydew on which sooty mold tends to grow. The insects often have a mutualistic relationship with ants, which feed on the honeydew and protect them from predators. There are about 8,000 descr ...
