Abstract: The genus Sphaerococcus Maskell has been the "dumping ground" for many rotund scale insects that did not seem to fit elsewhere. Although the genus is a member of the Pseudococcidae as defined by its type species, the family placement of many species is questionable or unknown. The purpose of this paper is to provide evidence for the correct family placement of each species described in Sphaerococcus. Twelve taxa are assigned to families in which they have never been placed previously and there are five new combinations and one new synonymy.

[Sphaerococcus should include only the species S. casuarinae and S. durus]
