| Abstract | ||||
| Pulvinaria urbicola Cockerell, 1893, is recorded from Egypt for the first time in Alexandria infesting Cordia sp. (Boraginaceae), Psidium guajava (Myrtaceae) and Sanchezia speciosa L. (Acanthaceae). Because this species has not been recorded before from Egypt, some characteristics of the adult female are given here to help in future identification in Egypt. | ||||
