Eriococcus danzigae (Miller & Gimpel)NOMENCLATURE:
Rhizococcus confusus Danzig, 1962a: 854. Type data: RUSSIA: Leningrad Oblast, Priozersk district, on dead needles on soil, 06/08/1956, by E. Danzig. Holotype female, by original designation. Type depository: St. Petersburg: Zoological Museum, Academy of Science, Russia. Described: female. Illust. Notes: There also are 2 paratypes on 1 slide in ZMAS.
Eriococcus confusus; Kawecki, 1985: 29. Change of combination.

Acanthococcus danzigae; Miller & Gimpel, 1996: 605. Change of combination and replacement name for Eriococcus confusus Danzig (1962a). Notes: Though the combination Acanthococcus confusus was never published by Miller & Gimpel (1996) it was this implicit change of combination which made necessary their proposed replacement name Acanthococcus danzigae Miller & Gimpel. Acanthococcus confusus Danzig (1962a) is a junior secondary homonym of Acanthococcus confusus Maskell (1892). Since both A. confusus Maskell and A. confusus Danzig have been transferred to Eriococcus, the homonymy persists and the species epithet danzigae remains valid.
Eriococcus danzigae; Miller & Gimpel, 1999: 213. Change of combination.
