“…Hasta el presente, la fauna de Hemiptera en la provincia de Jujuy fue explorada principalmente en cultivos agrícolas y plantas ornamentales, y por su interés en medicina (Agostini de Manero and Muruaga De L'Argentier 1987;Muruaga De L'Argentier and Agostini 1995;Morrone and Coscarón 1998;Linares and Neder 1999;Claps et al 2008;Linares et al 2010;Contreras and Coscarón 2012;Catalano et al 2013a, b y c;Melo and Dellapé 2013;Roig-Juñent et al 2014;Dellapé 2015;Dellapé et al 2015;Dellapé et al 2016;Hamity et al 2016;Coscarón 2017).

A��. Hemiptera diversity associated with trees from urban environments in the province of Jujuy, Argentina. The Hemiptera of urban environments in Jujuy are li�le known and quite unexplored. The objective of this work was to analyze and characterize the Hemiptera diversity in trees of public roads in Jujuy, and to provide data about their bioecology. The study was conducted in three locations during a dry and a wet season; two environments were considered for each location: urban and suburban. In each site, three trees of Handroantus impetiginosus, Enterolobium contortisiliquum and Citrus aurantium were sampled. The foliage was aspirated and 10 branches/tree were randomly extracted. We identified the hemipterans and compared the abundance, richness, diversity, composition and dominance of each suborder according to the tree species, localities, seasonality and degree of urbanization. We collected 4339 individuals belonging to the suborders Auchenorrhyncha (8 families, 30 morphospecies, 1044 individuals), Heteroptera (8 families, 20 morphospecies, 196 individuals) and Sternorrhyncha (9 families, 33 morphospecies, 3099 individuals). For the first time in Jujuy, Rhabdotalebra albinoi and Rhabdotalebra flava were recorded on E. contortisiliquum, and Rhabdotalebra flava and the genus Tingis on H. impetiginosus. San Salvador de Jujuy was the location with the highest richness (56 morphospecies, 28 exclusive), in contrast to El Carmen (39 morphospecies, 13 exclusive) and San Pedro (34 morphospecies, 11 exclusive). We recorded Heteroptera phytophages, predators and species with mixed diet. Considering locality and tree species, Sternorrhyncha was the suborder with highest richness and abundance, whereas seasonality did not affect it. The other two suborders were not affected by seasonality. Hemiptera species shared by the three tree species were Dikrella sp.,

“…Among these, the subfamily Peiratinae is known from 30 described genera (Putshkov & Putshkov, 1986–1989; Maldonado Capriles, 1990; Coscarón, 1995, 1996, 1997a, 2002; Coscarón & Linnavuori, 2007; Coscarón & Morrone, 1995; Gil-Santana & Costa, 2003; Cai & Taylor, 2006). The distribution of Peiratinae has been the subject of many studies (Morrone & Coscarón, 1996, 1998; Coscarón, 2017; Coscarón & Carpintero, 1994; Coscarón & Morrone, 1995, 1997; Coscarón, 1983a, 1983b, 1984, 1986, 1994, 1996, 1997b, 2002), and it has recently been comprehensively revised (Chłond & Bugaj-Nawrocka, 2015). In addition, the above-mentioned studies show that we can clearly distinguish groups of genera with a distribution limited to specific zoogeographical regions.…”

Among the 30 known genera within subfamily Peiratinae, only the genusSirtheneahas a cosmopolitan distribution. The results of our studies are the first comprehensive analysis concerning one of the representatives of mentioned subfamily based on joint phylogenetic analyses of molecular and morphological data as well as molecular dating. A total of 32 species were included into the dataset with all known species of the genusSirthenea. Material of over 400 dry specimens was examined for the morphological part of this study. The cosmopolitan distribution ofSirtheneaand the inaccessibility of specimens preserved in alcohol required the extraction of DNA from the dried skeletal muscles of specimens deposited in 24 entomological collections. The oldest specimens used for the successful extraction and sequencing were collected more than 120 years ago in India. We performed Bayesian Inference analyses of molecular and morphological data separately, as well as combined analysis. The molecular and morphological data obtained during our research verify the correlation of the divergence dates of all knownSirtheneaspecies. Results of the relaxed molecular clock analysis of the molecular data show that, the genusSirtheneastarted diverging in the Late Cretaceous into two clades, which subsequently began to branch off in the Paleocene. Our results of phylogenetic analyses suggest that thefossula spongiosaand its development could be one of the most important morphological characters in the evolution of the genus, most likely associated with the ecological niche inhabited bySirthenearepresentatives. Confirmation of the results obtained in our studies is the reconciliation of the evolutionary history ofSirtheneawith the biogeographical processes that have shaped current global distribution of the genus.

“…location); however besides its description, no additional information was provided. Subsequently, it has been recorded from Panamá, Dominican Republic, British Guyana, Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina (Froeschner, 1960;Schwertner & Nardi, 2015;Coscarón, 2017). While M. spinolae is a widespread species, nothing is known about its biology or economic importance, as for many other South American Cydnidae (Schwertner & Nardi, 2015).…”
