- Abstract
A new species of armored scale insect, Aulacaspis fanjingshanensis sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on adult female specimens collected on Rosaceae plants in China. A key to the Aulacaspis species known from Guizhou Province of China is provided. Our molecular study suggests that Aulacaspis schizosoma (Takagi, 1970) is not a true member of the genus Aulacaspis; the genus Superturmaspis Chen, 1983 is revived and A. schizosoma is transferred to it as Superturmaspis schizosoma (Takagi, 1970), revived combination, based on a molecular phylogeny.
