Abstract
Four new species of armored scale insect, Clavaspis selvaticasp. nov., Clavaspis virolaesp. nov., Davidsonaspis tovomitaesp. nov., and Rungaspis neotropicalissp. nov., are described and illustrated from Panama. We also transfer two previously described species of Panamanian Aspidiotini to new genera, Hemiberlesia crescentiae (Ferris) comb. nov. and Rungaspis rigida (Ferris) comb. nov., and report the first record of Selenaspidopsis browni Nakahara in Panama. A key to the species of Aspidiotini occurring in Panama is provided.
