Remarks
- Systematics: Slide-mounted adult female with: enlarged setae conical, thin, sides straight, marginal setae slightly longer than others, setae in medial and mediolateral areas increasing in size anteriorly, forming 3 longitudinal lines on each side of abdomen; hind legs without translucent pores (Danzig, 1986a). This species was incorrectly synonymized with E. azaleae by Lindinger (1932f) and also with E. bezzii by Ossiannilsson (1951). Eriococcus azaleae has enlarged setae approximately the same size medially and laterally whereas E. bezzii has the medial setae conspicuously smaller than the lateral setae. Goux (1948a) incorrectly synonymized Eriococcus bezzii (Leonardi) and Eriococcus bahiae Ehrhorn (= E. texanus) with E. uvaeursi. Eriococcus uvaeursi has relatively short microtubular ducts while E. bezzii has longer microtubular ducts. Eriococcus bahiae = texanus differs from E. bezzii in the shape of the enlarged setae, the size of the microtubular ducts, lack of teeth on the anal lobes and multilocular pores predominantly with more than 5 loculi.
- Structure: Ovisac is oval, cocoon-like, felted, grayish and covers the insect completely. Adult female is dark red and oval (Danzig, 1986a).
- Biology: Considered to be a rare montane species. Has been observed at elevations of 2,600m (Kosztarab & Kozár, 1988). This species could have two generations per year (Danzig, 1986).
- General Remarks: Detailed description and illustration by Danzig (1986a). Original description by Linnaeus in Williams & Gertsson, 2009)
