Heteroptera (Hemiptera) from the Chaco National Park (Argentina)

Abstract

An inventory of aquatic and terrestrial Heteroptera (excluding Aradidae, Coreidae and Pentatomoidea), comprising 101 species in 23 families, collected in the Chaco National Park (NE Argentina) is presented. . Fifty species are new records to the Argentinean Chaco province, and six species represent new records to Argentina: Cryphula affinis (Distant), Valtissius distinctus (Distant) (Rhyparochromidae), Stenopoda subinermis Stål, Diaditus pilosicornis Bergroth (Reduviidae), Buenoa uhleri Truxal (Notonectidae), and Paravelia splendoris (Drake & Harris) (Veliidae).

New record and redescription of the monotypic genus Comefulvius Carvalho & Carpintero, 1985 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae: Cylapinae)

“…Similar distribution has been already noted for several New World cylapine. Fulvius bisbistillatus Stål, 1860, widely distributed from Argentina to Mexico (Gorczyca 2006;Carpintero & Chérot, under press), is recorded from dry ecosystems such as Chaco National Park in Argentina (Melo et al 2011) or Chiquitano forest in Bolivia (Wolski, unpublished) as well as tropical rainforest in Panama (Carvalho & Costa 1994). Peritropis amphicyrta Wolski & Henry is known from Argentina (Misiones Province) and Ecuador (Orellana Province) (Wolski & Henry 2012).…”
