Eriococcus (bug)
''Eriococcus'' is the type genus of scale insects in the family Eriococcidae, erected by Targioni-Tozzetti in 1868.Targioni-Tozzetti (1868) ''Introduzione alla seconda memoria per gli studi sulle cocciniglie, e catalogo dei generi e delle specie della famiglia dei Coccidi'' (privately published): 726 Species records have a world-wide distribution, but this genus name is known to be polyphyletic, so species placement is subject to change.

Eriococcidae
Eriococcidae is a family of scale insects in the order Hemiptera. They are commonly known as felt scales or eriococcids. As of 2023, there are 109 genera and 681 species. Each species is usually specific to a different plant host, or closely related group of hosts. Recent research using ribosomal DNA has shown that the family Eriococcidae is not a single Monophyly, monophyletic group but is an aggregation of several different groups. Some species that appear morphologically similar seem to be only distantly related while dissimilar species are sometimes more closely related. The type genus ''Eriococcus (bug), Eriococcus'' has been shown to be Polyphyly, polyphyletic. Description Adult females of many felt scales produce a white, yellowish or gray membranous capsule or ovisac that encloses the pyriform (pear-shaped) body. The body itself varies in colour and may be pink, red or purple, green or brown. The posterior end of the sac has a small opening that allows newly hatched Nymp ...
