1) Sex ratio is female:male.2) Offspring of unmated females and mated females,respectively.

P.solenopsis has two reproductive modes:bisexual reproduction and facultative parthenogenesis(Table 1).Its parthenogenetic ability has attracted much research interest because facultative parthenogenesis is an inherent feature of mealybugs(Tabata et al.2016).However,to date,parthenogenesis has been found in only a few geographic populations of P.solenopsis(Table 1).Recently,under laboratory conditions,Zhao et al.(2016)showed that a small proportion of females of a population in central Zhejiang,China,reproduced in the absence of males(facultative deuterotoky),but the proportion of such females reached only 15.7%even after successive screening over four generations.It is unclear whether this phenomenon takes place under natural conditions at this location.In contrast,typical parthenogenetic reproduction is probably present in some regions of India.According to Vennila et al.(2010),most of the female offspring of mealybugs collected from Nagpur,India,produced viable nymphs in absence of males.Thus,the parthenogenetic mode appears to exist only within a limited geographic range and has little importance in relation to the invasion of this mealybug.
