Abstract The subfamily ofthe stinkbug family Pentatomidae is revised for the Old World with a key to the genera and a review ofthe with nomenclatural changes. The genus Tahitoc01is is removed from the Asopinae and placedtentativelywith the Podopinae. The genus Breddiniellais reducedto a synonym ofCazira. The genus Indtatus is reduced to a synonym oU,,{artinina. The genus Platynopus is divided into three genera by the restriction of Platynopus to include only five Indo- Pacific species; the elevation of the subgenus A/entre ~ieFiellustethe leveleffullgenus, andthe el'eetieneranewgenus Platynepiellusfol' the Afl'iean speeies formerly placedin Platynopus. AnewgenusAustralojallaiserectedfor Jalla versicolor. ThegeneraCantheconidea and &oontheeona aPe defined and their Pespecti'le species aligned in oonoordance with theil' definitiens. Fourteen species are thus transferred from Cantheconidea to Eocanthecona creating the following new combinations' Eooonth€Conajapanicola, Kooonthewna binotata, Eooonthecona latipes, &canthecona mitis, Eocanthecona neotibialis, Eocanthecona ornatula, Eocanthecona parva, Eocanthecona plebeja, Eocanthecona robusta, Eacanthecona ru!escens, Eacanthecona shikoklumsis, Eacanthecona thomsoni, Eacanthewna tibialis, and Eocanthecona vollenhoveni. Eocanthecona migratoriais transferred to the genus Alriuscreating the new combInatIOn A/nus m!gratonus. Also, Canthecona populus! IS transferred to EOcanthecona gIVIng the new combination Eocantheconapopulusi Ana.qida ikramiis transferred to the genus Eseudanasidagiving the new combInation Pseudanasida!kram!. A/nusdlScolOrglypso!des IS placed In synonymyunder Cantlieconad!scolOr. Asopu.q rulu.q is synonymized under Amyot-ea malabarica Arma neocu.qta and Arma neoinsperata are synony- mized under Armacustos.
