Abstract: The present study demonstrates 30 plant bugs species associated with 50 records of prey and six records of mycophagy for Brazil. The data were compiled from Schuh's Catalog, the literature, specimens deposited in entomology museums and exemplars from different regions of Brazil sent for identification. Some of the data from the literature used did not presented complete information. This study aims to increase the knowledge of the relationships among plant bugs, prey and fungi and emphasize those species with … Show more

“…Miridae is the most numerous family among Heteroptera, with 11,139 species described (Schuh, 2013), from which about 1,087 occur in Brazil (Ferreira et al, 2020). Amongst these plant bugs, there are also described phytophagous, fungivorous, saprophagous and predators species (Henry and Wheeler 1988;Wheeler, 2001;Nogueira et al, 2019a). Therefore, this group is particularly important to agriculture, acting as insect-pests to cultivated plants (Carvalho and Afonso, 1977) or as biological control agent in crops (Nogueira et al, 2019a).…”
