The whitefly genus Bemisia was studied from the Punjab, Province of Pakistan. A total of 6 species viz., B. afer, B. elongata,
B. giffardi, B. grossa, B. leakii and B. tabaci were identified from the pupal cases mounted on slides. Of these, one species, B.
elongata, is new to science, two species, viz., B. grossa and B. leakii, are new records for Pakistan. Pupae of B. giffardi and B.
elongata are elongately elliptical, but remaining species are elliptical or oval. The new species is illustrated and described in
detail. This species differs in size, margin is irregularly crenulated, submargin not differentiated from dorsum, transverse
moulting suture is broadly bow-shaped and caudal furrow is equal to vasiform orifice. This genus is severely infesting Acacia
nilotica, Cassia fistula, Dalbergia sissoo, Echinochloa colona, Gossypium hirsutum, Grewia asiatica and Vigna radiate in
Punjab. A key for the identification of Pakistani species of this genus is also given.
