  • Praelongorthezia Kozár Praelongorthezia Kozár, 2004: 381. Type species: Orthezia praelonga Douglas, 1891. COMMENTS: Because Praelongorthezia currently comprises 23 described species based on female morphology, the description of the adult male of P. praelonga acts for now as the generic diagnosis. The genus is classified in the tribe Ortheziini (Kozár, 2004) with Insignorthezia, Graminorthezia, and Orthezia. Praelongorthezia was defined based on adult female morphology and distinguished from these other genera by “bands or rows of wax plates within ovisac” and “head of dorsum with sclerotized cephalic plates” (Kozár, 2004: 271). Praelongorthezia has a Neartic and Neotropical distribution.
