Icerya purchasi (common name: cottony cushion scale) is a scale insect that feeds on more than 80 families of woody plants, most notably on Citrus and Pittosporum. I. purchasi insects originated from Australia. They now exist worldwide, wherever citrus crops are grown.
The cottony cushion scale insect was originally described in 1878, from specimens collected in New Zealand as pests of kangaroo acacia; the insect was then named Icerya purchasi by W.M. Maskell, "after the Rev. Dr. Purchas who, [he] believe[d], first found it".
