Keys

• KozarKaKo2013: pp.182-183 ( Adult (F) ) [Key to species of Anophococcus]
• TangHa1995: pp.520, 654 ( Adult (F) ) [Rhizococcus species] Key as: Rhizococcus iljiniae

Remarks

• Systematics: Slide-mounted adult female with: enlarged setae cylindrical, apices rounded or truncate, marginal setae conspicuously larger than all other setae on dorsal surface, 3 lateral setae on margin of each abdominal segment (Danzig, 1972b). Tang & Li (1988) included this species in their book on Inner Mongolian Chinese Coccoidea. In 1995 Tang & Hao realized that the specimens that they considered to be R. iljiniae were a misidentification of Acanthococcus agropyri.
• General Remarks: Most detailed description and illustration by Danzig (1972b).
