(MMBC, NMPC; dry- and slide- -mounted and preserved in alcohol). Description. Adult male and female described and figured by BURCKHARDT & HARTEN (2006) and MALENOVSKÝ & BURCKHARDT (2009). Fifth instar immature (Figs 63, 69). Pale yellow with numerous small dark brown markings on body dorsum. Body robust, oval. Body margin and dorsum with large truncate lanceolate setae in following numbers: margin (one side only, except abdomen): head 5–8, prothorax 5–7, forewing pad 12–16, hindwing pad 3–5, abdomen (both sides) 30–32; dorsum (one side only): cephaloprothorax 8–10, mesothorax including forewing pads 8–16, metathorax including hindwing pads 6–8, abdomen 18–22. Eye with 1 truncate lanceolate seta. Antenna straight, directed obliquely forwards, short, 2-segmented, basal segment with one and flagellum with five incomplete subdivisions, flagellum with two rhinaria (Fig. 64). Tarsal arolium membranous, fan-shaped, as large as claws (Fig. 65). Abdomen dorsally with four free sclerites and incompletely fused caudal plate; caudal plate margin broadly rounded. Anus in ventral position. Circumanal ring moderately large, with fore and hind margin close together; outer ring composed of a single row of pores, not sinuate (Fig. 66). Measurements (n = 4; in mm). BL 0.72–0.90, BW 0.53–0.59, AL 0.15–0.19, FL 0.28–0.31, TL 0.22–0.25, CPL 0.31–0.41, CPW 0.34–0.45, CRW 0.10–0.11. Ratios: BL/BW 1.31–1.53, AL/FL 0.50–0.61, CL/CW 0.86–0.91, CRW/CPW 0.22–0.29. Differential diagnosis. The fifth instar immature of P. verrucifrons resembles immatures of P. marmoratum Malenovský & Burckhardt, 2009 (sympatric with P. verrucifrons on Commiphora africana in Kenya) and P. stigmatum Malenovský & Burckhardt, 2009 (associated with Aucoumea klaineana in tropical West Africa and South Africa) in the relatively robust body (ratio BL/BW ≤ 1.50), ventral anus, and short, obliquely forwards directed antenna. Lanceolate setae in both these similar species are, however, confined only to the body margin (in P. marmoratum only to the apex of the caudal plate) and are completely missing on the body dorsum, in contrast to P. verrucifrons. The fifth instar immature of P. marmoratum is also larger than P. verrucifrons (BL> 1.0) (MALENOVSKÝ & BURCKHARDT 2009). Host plants. Found on Commiphora africana (A.Rich.) Endl. in Kenya (BURCKHARDT & HARTEN 2006, MALENOVSKÝ & BURCKHARDT 2009); in Socotra associated with Commiphora parvifolia (Balf.f.) Engl. and C. planifrons (Balf.f.) Engl. (Burseraceae) (Fig. 70). Biology. Immatures were found free-living on lower surface of leaves of Commiphora parvifolia and C. planifrons which are quite small in size (only one immature individual of P. verrucifrons per leaf was observed each time). No deformations were observed on the hosts which could be associated with the development or feeding activity of P. verrucifrons. Occurrence in Socotra. Probably widespread, although quite local on Commiphora parvifolia in open dry woodland on limestone plateaus in central and eastern Socotra and on C. planifrons in montane shrubland on southern slopes of the Hagher Mts. (Fig. 70). Distribution. Kenya, mainland Yemen (BURCKHARDT & HARTEN 2006, MALENOVSKÝ & BURCKHARDT 2009); Oman (unpublished record; A. Al-Wahaibi, pers. comm.), Socotra (new record). One of the known host plants, Commiphora africana, is widely distributed in the Afrotropical Region and the Arabian Peninsula (HASSLER 2014) while C. parvifolia and C. planifrons are endemics of Socotra (MILLER & MORRIS 2004, BROWN & MIES 2012).Published as part of Malenovský, Igor & Burckhardt, Daniel, 2014, Jumping plant-lice of Socotra Island (Hemiptera: Psylloidea), pp. 23-61 in Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 54 on pages 45-48, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.531435

Pronotum with two pronounced lateral and one relatively shallow sublateral tubercles on either side. Forewing rhomboidal; vein C+Sc strongly, unevenly curved, pterostigma long, vein Rs almost straight, strongly curved to fore margin apically; vein M about as long as either of veins M1+2 and M3+4; surface spinules large, very dense, present in all cells, leaving narrow spinule-free stripes along the veins, forming hexagons, less developed on unpigmented areas; radular spinules not pronounced. Metatibia with 5–7 apical spurs.</p> <p>Terminalia. Male. Proctiger tubular; sparsely covered with moderately long setae in apical half. Subgenital plate elongate; with sparsely spaced moderately long setae in apical half. Paramere narrowly lamellar; with recurved apico-anterior process on pedicel and long apico-posterior lobe with inwards directed sclerotised anterior tooth situated at base of the lobe; lobe about twice longer than process; outer face sparsely covered with moderately long setae mostly in apical half, inner face densely covered with long thick bristles apically. Distal segment of aedeagus massive, broadly evenly expanding towards apex; with one small apico-posterior tubercle; lateral lobes moderately long, dilated towards apex which is irregularly rounded and with frayed margin.—Female. Proctiger subglobular, pointed apically; dorsal margin, in profile, strongly bent downwards; densely covered with moderately long setae. Subgenital plate subglobular, rounded apically, with tiny apical process; densely covered with long setae in apical half.</p> <p> <b>Host-plant.</b> <i>Capsicum annuum</i> L.

It differs from <i>R. dimorpha</i> in shorter setae on the female subgenital plate, and from <i>R. lycii</i> in a recurved apico-anterior process of the paramere and a female subgenital plate bearing an apical process.</p>Published as part of <i>Serbina, Liliya & Burckhardt, Daniel, 2017, Systematics, biogeography and host-plant relationships of the Neotropical jumping plant-louse genus Russelliana (Hemiptera: Psylloidea), pp. 1-114 in Zootaxa 4266 (1)</i> on pages 19-21, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/575325">10.5281/zenodo.575325</a&gt
