INTRODUCTION Laboratorio de Entomología, Museo de Historia Natural, Pontificia Universidad The Heteroptera, or “true bugs”, are among Javeriana, Bogotá, Colombia (MUJ); the most diverse groups within the Hemiptera, Instituto Alexander Von Humboldt, Villa and are usually identified by the strong odor de Leyva, Colombia (IAVH); and National produced by the metathoracic scent glands History Museum, Smithsonian Institution, (Schuh & Slater 1995). The Hemiptera is Washington D.C., USA (USNM). the fifth largest group of insects with at least 80.000 described species (Gaston 1991), Vilga Stål (Coreidae: Pseudophloeinae) with the Heteroptera being the largest group The Pseudophloeinae can be distinguished with more than 35.000 species (Slater 1982). from other Coreidae subfamilies by having The true bugs that occur in Colombia are the tibiae terate, without a dorsal sulcus; lack poorly known. The data for many groups of a median dorsal impression on the head; is sparse and no comprehensive account or enlarged posterior abdominal angles of the checklist exists for the country. Here, two seventh segment; eighth female paratergite species of the genus Vilga Stål and the genus without a functional spiracle; particular Dicysta Champion are recorded for the first genitalic characters; and by the structure of time from Colombia. The specimens were the scent-gland auricle, in which the peritreme examined during curatorial activities at the has a dorsal ridge entire or shortly bilobed, not MUJ and IAVH collections.

RIBES ** ABSTRACT: The present paper is a first addition to tbe preliminary cataloguo Jf the Heteropteru-fauna of the Canary Islands (HEISS & BAEZ.1990) and includes corrections, new taxonomic assignmcnts and further citations from literature and several new records. 29 species are reported as new to the Canarian fauna, but one species is a synonym (Geocoris pvbescens Jak. = G.timidus Put.) and 8 spccies are regarded as doubtíidspccies inquirenda which should be deleted from the list. This brings the total number of species known to date from Canary Islands to 333. Key words: Heteropteru, catalogue, new additions, Canary Islands RESUMEN: La presente aportación es una primera addenda al catálogo preliminar de los Heterópferos des las islas Canarias (HEISS & BAEZ, 1990). Incluye enmiendas, nuevos cambios taxonómicos, datos complementarios y numerosas citas inéditas. Todo ello se desglosa en cuatro secciones distintas dentro del segundo capítulo: referencias adicionales y cambios en la literatura, citas canarias nuevas, citas isleñas nuevas y specics inquirenda. De este acervo hay que entresacar 29 especies para incorporar a la fauna canaria, con relación a lar 3 13 inventariadas, pero una es una sinonimia (Geocoris pvbescem lak. = G.rimidus Put.) y 8 especies más se consideran dudosas, por lo que se eliminan de la lista, quedando pues un total de 333 especies que se estiman válidas. Toda la bibliografía es nueva. 1.1 N TRO D UC TI ON The publication of “A preliminary catalogue of the Heíeropíera of the Canary Islands” by HEISS & BAEZ (1990) as a compilation of the then available data from literature was an attempt to provide a kind of practica1 “check-list” without pretension of completeness.

  • Introduction to True Bugs (Heteroptera) of the Neotropics
    Chapter 1 Introduction to True Bugs (Heteroptera) of the Neotropics Antônio R. Panizzi and Jocêlia Grazia Abstract True bugs (Heteroptera) are a diverse and complex group of insects, particularly in the neotropics. The fauna ofthese bugs has been investigated through time, but our knowledge of the species living in the Neotropical Region is lirnited. ln this introductory chapter, we give a general view on true bugs c1assification and biogeography, with concise comments on their general characteristics and bioecology of each major taxon that comprise each of the seven infraorders of Heteroptera. 1.1 Introduction The true bugs (Heteroptera) constitute a very interesting widely distributed group of insects, which is greatly diversified in tropical zones. Considered the largest group of insects with incomplete metamorphosis, heteropterans have been studied on both basic and applied aspects worldwide. Along the years, several books have been published on Heteroptera, the majority on specific aspects, such as certain groups (taxa) of particular areas, and others on more general comprehensive issues. Of more broad interest, two books about the latter were published relatively recently. The first was dedicated to the c1assification and natural history of true bugs in particular, with insights on the history of the study of Heteroptera, how to collect and preserve true bugs, historical biogeogra- A.R.

Abstract In the competition for the opposite sex, sexual selection can favor production of exaggerated features, but the high cost of such features in terms of energy consumption and enemy avoidance makes them go to extinction under the influence of natural selection. However, to our knowledge, fossil on exaggerated traits that are conducive to attracting opposite sex are very rare. Here, we report the exaggerated leaf- like expansion antennae of Magnusantenna wuae Du & Chen gen. et sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Coreidae) with more abundant sensory hairs from a new nymph coreid preserved in a Cretaceous Myanmar amber.
