“…The taxonomy of the Coccoidea is still firmly based on female morphology, but males are thought to represent ancestral affinities better, particularly at higher levels of classification (Boratynski, 1970), although they can be of use at an intrafamiial level (Boratynski and Dav ies. 1971; Davies and Boratynski. 1979;Davies, 1981).…”

All instars of the male and female of Crypto' baccatus (Maskell) are described and illustrated. Characteristic features of each instarare discussed. Morphology of the adult male is examined in detail and compared with that of other coccid species. The status of the genus is examined with regard to the morphology of the adult male and female.

Memoirs of the Museum of Victoria 51(1): 49-64. All instars of Melanococcus albizziae (Maskell) except for the adult female are described and illustrated. Characteristic features of each instar and of the species, including the incidence and form of the dorsal cerarii in nymphal instars, are discussed. The morphology of the adult male is examined in detail and compared with that of other species of the family.

“…The results obtained in this research from utilizing cluster analyses ofthe presaturation data emphasizes when several mathematical treatments ofthe data were utilized, the results while different were complementary. The research performed by Davies and Boratynski (1979) emphasized the importance of utilizing several cladistical analyses of taxonomic data before conclusions are formulated concerning taxonomic relationships.…”

Serological analyses of soluble seed proteins of 12 representative taxa ofthe family Oleaceae by the techniques of Ouchterlony, presaturation, and immunoelectrophoresis (lEP) yielded complementary taxonomic information. Ouchterlony reactions differentiated among protein extracts of three species, and the combined serological techniques permitted the detection of protein differences of respective taxa of the two subfamilies Jasminoideae and Oleoideae. IEP enabled the separation of the 12 taxa investigated and the distribution into the two subfamilies, by the differential electrophoretic positions of precipitin arcs, which were consistent with members of each of the two subfamilies. Presaturation data, when analyzed by two cluster analysis computer programs, were taxonomically significant. One program, which calculated amalgamation distances from the presaturation data, clustered the 12 taxa into subgroups which corresponded to tribes, and within two groups, which corresponded to two subfamilies. A monothetic clustering program provided theoretical information on evolution of taxa within the family Oleaceae based on serological correspondences obtained from the presaturation data; the subfamily Jasminoideae was found phylogenetically primitive and the subfamily Oleoideae was advanced. Additionally, IEP data supported those theories suggesting that taxa of the Oleoideae evolved from taxa of the Jasminoideae. The groupings of taxa and different information obtained from the cluster analyses of data and all serological techniques reinforced each other, as well as contemporary taxonomic and phylogenetic treatments of taxa of the family Oleaceae.
