Syntypes , Mexico . Trialeurodes vitrinellus (Cockerell) Quaintance & Baker, 1915 : xi. DISTRIBUTION. Neotropical Region: Belize , Mexico . COMMENTS. In her account of North American Trialeurodes Russell (1948) illustrated and described T. vitrinellus with shallow dorsal tubercles loosely defining the submedian area of the thorax and abdomen, with further tubercles on the median line of several abdominal segments. However, specimens determined by Russell and present in BMNH have no dorsal disc tubercles at all, better answering the description of her new species, T. intermedia . It is considered that puparia from Psidium guajava in the CFR, possessing tubercles as described above, belong to T. vitrinellus , one of the T. floridensis group of species ( q.v. ).
