Myzolecaniinae
The Myzolecaniinae are a subfamily of scale insects belonging to the family Coccidae. 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.

Halococcus(insect)
''Halococcus'' (common abbreviation: ''Hcc.'') is a genus of the Halococcaceae. Ecology ''Halococcus'' is a genus of extreme halophilic archaea, meaning that they require high salt levels, sometimes as high as 32% NaCl, for optimal growth. Halophiles are found mainly in inland bodies of water with high salinity, where their pigments (from a protein called rhodopsinprotein) tint the sediment bright colors. Rhodopsinprotein and other proteins serve to protect ''Halococcus'' from the extreme salinities of their environments. Because they can function under such high-salt conditions, ''Halococcus'' and similar halophilic organisms have been used in the food industry and even in skin-care products. ''Halococcus'' is found in environments with high salt levels, mainly inland bodies of salt water, but some may be located in highly salted soil or foods. The pigmented proteins in some species cause the reddish tint found in some areas of the Dead Sea and the Great Salt Lake, especially ...
