Deskripsi
Three new species of Asian Aleiodes are described and illustrated: A.spurivena sp. n. from Vietnam, Thailand, Nepal and India; A. spurivenaduplus sp. n. from Vietnam; A. spurivenatriplus from Western Malaysia. The first two of these are differentiated based on the bar-coding, 5’ region of the cytochrome oxidase 1 gene. All three are morphologically extremely uniform and can be recognised from other Aleiodes species by the presence of a reclivous spur arising from fore wing vein 1–1A.
