- Legs normal, with well-developed coxa, trochanter, femur, tibia and tarsus as typical for Coccidae . ........................ 3

3. Perivulvar pores present in small groups on either side of anal cleft just posterior to anal plates only. Antennae 7 or 8 segmented ................................................................................................................................. C. lounsburyi Cockerell

- Perivulvar pores present along the anal cleft, with some pores extending anterolaterally on posterior abdominal segments. Antennae 6 or 7 segmented. .............................................................................................................................. 4

4. Preopercular pores present along midline from area just anterior to anal plates and extending anteriorly to head margin. Uni- and bilocular microducts intermixed with the preopercular pores, and also present alongside marginal setae, absent elsewhere. Antennae 6 or 7 segmented .......................................................................... C. zizyphi (Brain)
