Specimens seem to prefer area directly above ligule but can be found anywhere within length of blade. Body oblong elliptical, white to yellow in first-instar nymphs, yellow to mottled with purple in second-instar nymphs and adult females (Figs 2a–b), and purple in gravid adult females (Fig. 2c). Short crystalline wax rods present on dorsum and body margins, curving posteriorly except for those on the head, which are straight. Venter with light dusting of white wax. Mature adult female situated within a long white felted ovisac, with yellow to purple eggs. First ovisac with eggs observed in May (Fig. 2c) and male pupae first observed in March (2024-03057-1, FSCA _0073813).</p><p>Etymology: The specific epithet “ orzo ” is a name for ellipsis-shaped pasta, referring to the shape of the adult female and immature stages, and is used as a noun in apposition.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/CF7187F6FFB76F46FF30FF0CFCA321D8	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
