Putoidae is a family of scale insects commonly known as giant mealybugs or putoids [1] The genus name Macrocerococcus has also been used but it is now considered to be a synonym of Puto. [2] The genus Puto was formerly classified as a member of the Pseudococcidae; [3] however, it so significantly differed from the rest of the Pseudococcidae that it was accorded its own family Putoidae.
