(Described from 3 specimens, 1 in good condition (but broken into two parts ­ description mainly taken from this specimen), 1 fair to poor and the other in poor condition.) Mounted material: of moderate size, total body length 1.63 mm; antennae relatively short, about 3/5ths total length of body; body moderately setose, fleshy setae (fs) frequent on body but not always easy to separate from hairlike setae (hs) – each fs longer and stouter than hs; length of fs on antennae more than twice width of antennal segments. Wings comparatively short, only about 3/4 total body length; breadth much less than half wing length. Hamulohalteres absent. Head: approximately triangular in dorsal view; length 153–178µm, width across genae 178–190µm. Median crest (mc) narrow anteriorly, broad posteriorly and reticulated throughout; with about 4 fs + 4 hs dorsal head setae (dhs) on each side. Mid­cranial ridge: dorsal ... : Published as part of Hodgson, Chris, 2005, The adult males of Coccoidea (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha) known from Greenland, pp. 1-48 in Zootaxa 907 on pages 43-47, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.170989 ...
