Abstract

In this paper we provide a list of all species of scale insects that have been collected in the Krakatau Islands since the catastrophic eruption of 1883. Included in the list are species collected during the La Trobe University Expedition in 1984 from the islands and from the adjacent mainland in Java and also species collected in earlier expeditions, including those during 1919–1933, discussed by Dammerman (1948). In addition, we describe two new species of armoured scales, Aulacaspis thorntoni Williams & Miller and Greeniella calophylli Williams & Miller and provide a key to the species of Greeniella Cockerell.
