Description
Summary:Trialeurodes dicksoniae Martin, 1999 DISTRIBUTION. Australia (Victoria), New Zealand. HOST PLANTS. Dicksoniaceae: Dicksonia antarctica; D. squarrosa. COMMENTS. The type sample was collected from tree ferns in the Eucalyptus forest of Tall Trees National Park in Australia. Whitefly puparial specimens have recently been collected on a different Dicksonia species in New Zealand (R. Henderson, NZAC, personal communication), and examination reveals that a small proportion of these specimens are identical to those of Australian T. dicksoniae. However, the majority of specimens from the same sample match material in BMNH, collected by Dumbleton and determined as T. asplenii: if these other specimens are indeed T. asplenii it is considered possible that T. dicksoniae will later prove to be its synonym. Published as part of Martin, Jon H. & Camus, Josephine M., 2001, Whiteflies (Sternorrhyncha, Aleyrodidae) colonising ferns (Pteridophyta: Filicopsida), with descriptions of two new Trialeurodes and one new Metabemisia species from south­east Asia, pp. 1-19 in Zootaxa 2 on page 16, DOI:10.5281/zenodo.4618039
