“…113 species. However, as indicated by Hodgson (), this genus is in urgent need of revision and the correct generic assignment of several species is doubtful (Wang & Feng, ; Choi & Lee, ). For example, Coccus malloti (Takahashi) and Coccus multisetus Wang & Feng have been retained in Coccus , although they have ventral tubular ducts in the submarginal area of the body, quite different from the distribution in C. hesperidum (the type species of Coccus ), which has tubular ducts restricted to medially positioned on the thorax.…”

Coccidae is one of the major families of scale insects, with many species considered to be serious agricultural or horticultural pests. However, the phylogenetic relationships among coccid subfamilies, tribes and genera are poorly understood because existing hypotheses are based on morphological characters and cladistic analyses. Here, we present the first molecular phylogeny of the family Coccidae based on DNA fragments of a mitochondrial gene (COI), nuclear ribosomal RNA genes (18S and 28S), and elongation factor‐1α (EF‐1α). We found that some genera (Coccus Linnaeus and Pulvinaria Targioni Tozzetti), tribes (Coccini, Paralecaniini, Pulvinariini and Saissetiini) and subfamilies (Coccinae and Filippiinae) within the family are nonmonophyletic. Formation of a waxy ovisac and the distribution and structures of ventral tubular ducts have been used to define the tribe Pulvinariini morphologically; however, these were found to be homoplastic traits based on ancestral state reconstruction. Accordingly, we propose a new classification of certain groups as follows: (i) the Paralecaniini is raised to subfamily rank, Paralecaniinae stat.n., except that Neosaissetia Tao, Wong & Chang is retained as a member of Coccinae; (ii) Megapulvinaria Yang and Pulvinarisca Borchsenius are transferred from Coccinae to Pulvinariscinae stat.n.; and (iii) Metaceronema Takahashi is transferred from Filippiinae to Pulvinariscinae stat.n. We provide amended diagnoses for the newly proposed subfamilies.

The first step in developing a pest management strategy is to know which pests can be found on the crop. Recently, the legal cultivation of hemp, Cannabis sativa (Rosales: Cannabaceae), has begun in Florida, and although hemp harbors one of the most diverse pest complexes globally, growers often do not consider the importance of pest identification until it is too late. This study aims to list arthropod and mollusk species reported on hemp in Florida to date. A total of 105 arthropod and mollusk species are reported on hemp in Florida from 8 insect orders and 2 non-insect orders. We found 78 species in Florida already reported in published literature, and 27 species are reported here on hemp for the first time. Even though 105 species in Florida are reported from hemp, not all can reproduce, complete their life cycle, and cause damage to hemp. Therefore, we divided them into 3 categories based on their pest potential: major (26), minor (72), and minor-to-major (7) pests. In addition, we provide representative images, a field guide, and easy-to-follow keys for hemp pest diagnostics. Our study provides the first comprehensive list of hemp pests known to occur in Florida. This will help extension agents, growers, regulators, and researchers scout and inspect hemp regardless of their background and let them know which hemp pest species are commonly found in Florida. We propose and discuss a management plan for pest species on hemp in indoor cultivation with a controlled environment. The pest list and the management plan proposed herein will help aid in the management of hemp pests and the detection of newly introduced hemp pests in Florida.
