A redescription of Myzocallis (Lineomyzocallis) melanocera Boudreaux & Tissot is given, and Myzocallis (Lineomyzocallis) neoborealis sp.nov. and Myzocallis (Lineomyzocallis) atropunctatus sp.nov. are described. Lectotypes for M. (L.) melanocera and Myzocallis (Lineomyzocallis) walshii (Monell) were designated. Myzocallis (Lineomyzocallis) occultas Richards is declared a new synonym of M. (L.) walshii. The taxonomic affinities of these aphids are discussed.
