Popis: Saissetia miranda (Cockerell & Parrott in Cockerell, 1899) (Figs 49, 50) Lecanium oleae mirandum Cockerell & Parrott in Cockerell, 1899: 12. Diagnosis. Marginal setae mostly with bifid or fimbriate apices (Fig. 50F); with 17���23 setae present between anterior and posterior stigmatic clefts on each side (Fig. 49E). Venter with multilocular disc-pores abundant around vulvar area, plus a few pores present laterad of metacoxa (Fig. 50I); tubular ducts each with a narrow inner ductule, present in submarginal areas (Figs 49C, 50L) (partially adopted from Williams & Watson 1990; Choi & Lee 2017b). Material examined. 5 ♀♀, LAOS, Wattay International Airport, Sikhottabong Dist., Vientiane Capital, 30.iv.2015, coll. J.Y. Choi, on Dieffenbachia seguine (Jacq.) Schott (Araceae). Hosts. Polyphagous. According to Garc��a Morales et al. (2016), S. miranda has been recorded from plants belonging to 58 genera in 26 families. Distribution. All zoogeographical regions; Oriental Region (India, Indonesia and Taiwan) (Garc��a Morales et al. 2016); Laos (new country record). Economic importance. Dean & Hart (1972) considered S. miranda to be a potential pest of citrus in Texas, and it was described as a common pest of ornamental plants in Florida (Hamon & Williams 1984). Remarks. Saissetia miranda was synonymized with S. oleae (Olivier) but was subsequently reinstated as a valid species based on the different numbers of marginal setae (De Lotto 1969). It has 17���23 marginal setae between anterior and posterior stigmatic clefts on each side, whereas S. oleae has only 5���13 setae in this position.
