Abstract

Andaspis dasi Williams, which was described from India, is made a synonym of A. numerata Brimblecombe, which was described from Australia. The species is now known from several localities and host-plants in the Pacific area and is often found on tea. A short account is given of its association with the fungus Septobasidium in Papua New Guinea.
