Description:	Among the sap-sucking insects that infest sugarcane [Saccharum spp. (Poaceae)] around the world, scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha) stand out with 103 recorded species. Most of them are frequently regarded as secondary or occasional pests (Garcia Morales et al., 2016). In Brazil, eighteen species of scale insects have already been reported on sugarcane. Of these, Aclerda takahashii (Kuwana, 1932) (Aclerdidae), Margarodes sp., (Margarodidae) and Saccharicoccus sacchari (Cockerell, 1895) (Pseudococcidae) are known to the state of Rio Grande do Sul (Garcia Morales et al., 2016; Borges Filho et al., 2019; Monteiro et al., 2019).
