Abstract

A new genus and species of armored scale insect (Hemiptera: Diaspididae), Protomorgania koebelei Dooley and Evans, is described and illustrated from specimens collected by Albert Koebele on Pittosporum sp. (Pittosporaceae) in Australia around the year 1900. A key to the genera of armored scale insects similar to Protomorgania and known to occur in Australia is provided.
