Remarks.

Salazar (1972) reported this species as Pseudococcus obscurus Essig, 1909 , a junior synonym of Pseudococcus viburni on Ficus carica in Peru. Ben-Dov (1994) reported it on grapes in Peru. Our study found it on grapes in Arequipa, from samples collected exclusively from Pedregal (Caylloma).
