New genus # 1, species # 1 - 2 - from Tahiti, one was already ID’d by Usinger as "new genus near Mecosoma Dall. see Schouteden". I matched another specimen with it. Smallish, elongate oval, head seems prolonged in front of eyes; anterlolateral margins of pronotum slightly convex; profemora unarmed; very small spine at base of abdomen.

New genus # 1, species # 2 - 2 - my ID, also from Tahiti. Not as elongate, and the anterolateral margins of pronotum are straight.

New genus # 2 - 6 - my ID, from New Guinea. Just would not key out in Thomas. Punctures very large, coarse; anterolateral pronotual margins crenulate; profemora unarmed; very large, bulbous spine at base of abdomen, but it does not surpass middle of hind coxae. Mesosternum undifferentiated; metasternum bicarinate to receive apex of rostrum which only reaches about middle of mid coxae. Humeral angles spinose; juga slightly longer than tylus, but not converging or meeting anteriorly; ostiole attended by short ruga reaching only about a fourth to lateral margin; all beak segments about same length; posterolateral angles of abdominal segments are all prominent and produced, but they are obtuse rather than spinose.

Nice red specimen from Ecuador with spinose humeral angles. Probably a known species, but I don’t have the New World literature.

Edessa spp. - about 100 more specimens representing many species. Need Van Doesburg’s revision to be finished!!

Peromatus sp. - 2 - my ID, from Brazil.
 

Accarana australica Distant - 26 - not my ID.

Accarana spp. - there are maybe 100 specimens and at least 4-5 species (probably more); all of these specimens are from New Guinea.

Note: The character which I used to diagnose this genus is that the metasternum and usually the mesosternum are strongly sulcated with the margins distinctly elevated. There are many specimens that are similar to australica which has the posterolateral pronotal angles moderately produced. There are, however, several species in which the humeral angles are much less produced and a couple species which have them greatly produced. There are a couple specimens of the latter that are labeled "genus nr. Baracellus, so need to check that genus (only 1 described species from Jobie Island). The male genitalia is strikingly similar in all specimens, so I believe that they all belong to Accarana. There are only 3 described species of Accarana including one called metallica; there are three specimens with the scutellum distinctly metallic green?

Acledra albocostata (Spinola) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Acledra dimidiaticollis (Spinola) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Adria parvula (Dallas) - 1 - DAR exchange.

Aednus spp. - 22 representing at least 2 species - my ID. There are 14 from s. China, 1 from w. China, 2 from Philippines, 1 from Malaya, 1 from Vietnam, 1 from Borneo, and 2 from Ceram. All but 2 specimens from China are rather uniform in structure and may all be one species, although the Borneo and Ceram specimens appear to be somewhat larger. Two of the specimens from s. China are smaller, paler in color and have the scutellum longer, reaching the apex of the abdomen (does not reach apex in all other specimens). I believe that these two are close if not the same as that illustrated as ventralis in Hsiao for China.

Aegaleus sp. 1 - One male - Dark brown species with scutellum and anterior two-thirds of pronotum black. White: arcuate transhumeral stripe, calli, extreme edge of anterior and anterolateral pronotal margins, small basal edge of scutellum, submarginal lateral stripes on scutellum straight, at angle to each other, and tip of scutellum. Abdominal venter distinctly spined. Connexiva mostly dark brown with extreme lateral margins and incisures very narrowly pale. South Africa.

Aegaleus sp. 2 - One female - Dorsal surface black with similar color pattern as above, except submarginal lateral scutellar markings are curved, not straight, the pronotal calli are not pale, and the connexiva is pale with black bands along incisures. Abdominal venter not spined, but with prominent hump. South Africa.

Aegaleus sp. 3 - 3 - Two males and 1 female. Dorsal surface nearly completely black, with a slight blue tinge. One specimen has a few pale markings along the anterior margin of the pronotum; another has a very small pale spot on each basal angle of the scutellum. Although the typical pale markings of the above 2 species are lacking, there are smooth calli in the same general areas (eg. transhumeral smooth calli). Connexiva dark with small to medium pale scallops on each segment. Ventrally colored like above species: pale yellowish-brown with dark punctures, & black spots near lateral incisures. Abdominal venter not spined, but with prominent hump. South Africa.

Aelia acuminata (Linnaeus) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Aelia fieberi Scott - 1 - had been previously ID’d as Aelia lewisi which is now a jr. syn. of fieberi.

Aenaria lewisi (Scott) - 9 - my ID, all from Japan.

Aenaria pinchii Yang - 7 - my ID, all from s. China.

Note: Males of the two species are easy to separate (see Hsiao 1977). A. lewisi tends to more elongate and slender while pinchii is shorter and slightly more ovate.

Note: Aenaria and Niphe are somewhat similar, but Aenaria has the juga meeting in front of the tylus and Niphe has the the tylus and juga subequal.

Aeschrocoris ceylonicus Distant - 14 - my ID, from Laos & s. China.

Alcimocoris japonensis Scott - 14 adults - about half my ID, mostly from Ryukyu Islands, 1 from Japan, and 1 from s. China.

Alcimocoris lineolatus (Dallas) - 1 - my ID, from the Philippines, spectacular species, large, with very produced humeral angles, scutellum with margins subparallel, pale, and with two parallel pale longitudinal lines near middle.

Alcimocoris sp. - 3 - my ID, from Laos, larger than japonensis and with a fairly large white spot in each basal angle of the scutellum each followed by a black spot posteriorly.

Alciphron glaucus (Fabricius) - 17 previously ID’d. I ID’d another 50-75 specimens; only 1 species in the genus which is easy to ID. Guam, Australia (NT), Solomons, New Guinea, American Samoa, New Caledonia, New Hebrides, Philippines.

Amphidexius suspensus Bergroth - 12 - not my ID. From Australia (W).

Anaca spp. (3) - 17 - my ID. 3 from Thailand, 5 from Taiwan, and 9 from Laos and Cambodia.

Anaxarchus reyi (Montandon) - 3 - my ID, all from New Caledonia.

Note: Schouteden syn. the above 2 species which was disputed by Distant. They appear to be two good species to me. The pygophore is somewhat different. The posteroventral margin is much more produced in reyi with a much more scooped out area between it and the inferior ridge. Also, the tip of the scutellum is bright white in reyi and not always so in pardalinus. These species are both large brown, with large, black, coarse punctures, the basal angles of the scutellum are black, foveate, the connexivum alternates black and stramineous. A. reyi is more coarsely punctate than pardalinus.

Anaxilaus oliva (Van Duzee) - 4 - my ID, all from New Caledonia which may be a new locality record.

Anaxilaus sp. - 1 - appears similar to oliva - from New Guinea.

Anchises parvulus (Westwood) - 3 - Gross ID’d 2 as A. sulcicornis which Leston 1957 placed as a junior synonym of parvulus. All 3 from New Guinea.

Note: Generic characters: Juga shorter than tylus; ocelli behind line connecting hind margins of eyes; femora unarmed; anterior margin of pronotum completely lacking collar; humeral angles not spinose; 2nd antennal segment weakly sulcated, 3rd depressed.

"Antestia degenera" - Bishop contains 38 specimens that would fall under this name. I can, however, detect at least 6 (based on male genitalia; female genital plates look good, too) species in this group of specimens, and I do not believe that the genus is either Antestia or Plautia; it probably needs a new genus. There are two specific junior synonyms that would have to be checked as well as the possibility of other "Antestia" species possibly refering to one of these. This would make a nice project.

Antestiella sp. - 2 - my ID. From South Africa.

Antestiopsis anchora (Thunberg) - 30 - all but 3 are my ID. China, British North Borneo, Macao, n. India, Laos, Malaya (Perak), Vietnam.

Antestiopsis cederwaldi (Bergroth) - 6 - Gross ID - smaller greenish species with markings more less faded. Australia (Queensland).

Antestiopsis cruciata (Fabricius) - 18 - my ID. Philippines, Vietnam, India, Java.

Antestiopsis orbona Kirkaldy - 6 - Gross ID as pallipes (preocc.) - very dark sp. with very few markings. Australia (NSW).

Antestiopsis spp. - 3 - Gross ID. Australia (Queensland).

Note: There are two drawers full of unidentified "Antestiopsis" species. At least most of these would key to Antestiopsis in some of Linnavuorie’s works, but that was for Africa. There appears to be incredible diversity, especially from New Guinea including probably a number of new genera and species.

Antheminia lunulata (Goeze) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Antheminia pusio (Kolenati) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Aplerotus maculatus (Dallas) - 1 - not my ID. From Australia.

Arniscus humeralis Dallas - 5 - Gross ID. From Australia (W).

Araducta spp. - 52 specimens representing 6 species - my ID. There is currently only one described species: Walker type should be easy to get hold of. Actually 2 of the species are nearly different enough to be in a new genus, but for time being I would place them here. There are good male genitalia characters, the female plates are different for some, and it appears that the color patterns hold up. Good project for near future! All from New Guinea.

Arocera apta (Walker) - 3 - 1 my ID, from Colombia, 2 DAR exchange.

Arocera placens (Walker) - 1 - DAR exchange.

Arvelius albopunctata (DeGeer) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Aspavia sp. - 3 - my ID - Could be pallidaspina. From South Africa.

Aspavia sp. - 6 - my ID - From Tanzania (4) and South Africa (2).

Aspideurus spp. - There is about two-thirds of a drawer of semi-sorted, unidentified species. Lots of different color patterns, some of which seem very constant, others exhibit much variation. There are a number of species though as the abdominal spine varies and the shape of the anterolateral pronotal margin. Some may not belong to this genus, especially those from s. China and mainland Southeast Asia. Once again , this would make a great, but difficult project.

Atelias variegatus (Westwood) - 2 - Gross ID; small, humeral angles cornutely produced forward; both from w. Australia.

Atelocera serrata (Fabricius) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Austromalaya aculeata (Bergroth) - 1 - Gross ID, from Queensland.

Austromalaya lata (Walker) - 12 adults - not my ID, all from Queensland.

Austromalaya reticulata (Westwood) - 2 - not my ID, from Northern Territories, Australia; the membrane does appear to be reticulate.

Austromalaya sp. - 2 - my ID, from New Guinea.

Note: Generic characters: tylus longer than juga, head very long and slender, rather abruptly narrowing near insertion of antennae; humeral angles spinose; dorsal surface of pronotum rather flat, lacking gibbosities, etc.

Auxentius spp. - 100-150 specimens - my ID. There are only 2 described species; I has able to separate the males into at least 6 species. There appeared to be about that many different females also, but I did not separate them. These species are somewhat dimorphic as the males have the pronotum somewhat swollen (appearing fat); the females do not (they are flatter); they are not as long and slender as Coctoteris or Bromocoris but are more slender than Babylas or Neoptolemus. They are not pruinose as in the latter 2 genera. The males have the lateral margins of the pygophore expanded into long projections (the most common species has theses rather robust, the others they are more fingerlike); there are also some differences on the posteroventral surface of the pygophore (prominence, projections, etc.). The females usually have a distinct emargination in the last abdominal venter just behind the basal plates (one species was without this emargination, but the last abdominal segment was broadly and shallowly v-shaped). The size and shape of this emargination varies according to species.

Avicenna auricornis (Walker) - 2 - McDonald ID. We have auricornis catalogued as a Vitellus. It has never been in Avicenna. I need to check and see if Gross or McDonald have mentioned anything about moving this species to Avicenna. These two specimens are definitely not Vitellus as they do not have the apex of the scutellum modified as members of that genus. Australia (NT, NSW).

Axiagastus mitescens - 1 - my ID, from Laos. In my opinion this is not a Hoplistoderine. Gross says it belongs in the Antestiini which might be ok. It does have the ostiolar rugae elongate. It has the general appearance of a menidine or even more so an eurysaspine, but it does not have any ventral armature either on the base of the abdomen or on the thoracic sterna.

Axiagastus sp. 1 - lots - I had placed these under Hyrmine last trip. They have the same general facies as Hyrmine, but this is where they belong. This species is darker with the anterior margin of scutellum white, more less of the lateral margins pale, and a kidney shaped white spot on the apex. There is some small pale spots on coria and on pronotum. Solomon Islands, New Britain, New Ireland, Woodlark Island, Admiralty Island, New Hebrides.

Axiagastus sp. 2 - lots - Same as above on prior placement. These are much paler. At the very least anterior half of pronotum is pale with dark punctures; white spot on apex of scutellum much larger. Much less dark pattern on ventral surface. Male genitalia different also. Indonesia (Ambon), New Guinea, Taiwan.

Axiagastus sp. 3 - 1 - from India. Much paler still. Pale with dark punctures, two black spots on basal disk of scutellum, white spot on apex of scutellum not kidney shaped, more arrow shaped.

Axiagastus sp. 4 - 4 - from s. China. This may not be an Axiagastus as the scutellum is somewhat more narrow, and the apices of the bucculae are not greatly produced, and the male genitalia is quite different, but otherwise it appears to be close. The basal portion of the scutellum has a very striking white zig zag pattern, as well as similar markings on anterior half of pronotum. Once again there is a larg chordate spot on the apex of the scutellum.

Baracellus sp. 1 - lots - one of these was labeled nr. Baracellus. There is only one described species of Baracellus; it is from Jobie Island. I have looked over the description and believe this and the next two species also belong in this genus. This is a very interesting genus. The lateral angles of the pygophore are extremely long and spinose and converge together; the female genitalia has either an excavation or is bulging out at the base of the basal plates, this is obviously where the spinose lateral angles of the pygophore insert. The humeral angles are long and spinose in all 3 species, and the anterolateral margins are distinctly dentate. This species is dull olive green (not shiny as in Accarana), with dark punctures. There is sometimes a pale streak at the base of each corium and a small pale discal spot on each coria. The male genitalia has a small medially oriented hook on the inside of each big spinose production of pygophore; the female has a small round notch in the last abdominal sternite just in front of basal plates.

Baracellus sp. 2 - 13 - a little larger than species 1; also dull olive green turning somewhat yellowish on the scutellum, and has some pale markings on the coria. The male genitalia now has a much larger and turned production on the inside of each lateral spinose pygophoral production; the female have a larger excavated area in front of the basal plates.

Baracellus sp. 3 - 5 - is black with 2 relatively large white spots on each corium. The male genitalia is similar, but different from species # 1; the female genitalia has a moderate excavation, but the exposed parts of the basal plates are very small, fingerlike.

New Genus nr. Baracellus - 3 - Large, olive green with large white longitudinal stripe on each corium; humeral angles are still quite large, spinose, with large sawlike teeth on each margin. Male pygophore greatly and robustly produced on each side, but not spinose as in above genus.

Bromocoris souefi (Distant) - 8 - my ID (only known species from Australia); very similar to one of the Bromocoris spp. from New Guinea; may be a little smaller and broader.

Bromocoris sp. 1 - 2 - my ID, 2 males whose genitalia look similar to subsimilis, but they are much longer and slender (general facies more like Coctoteris). One of the two specimens has very extensive black markings on the abdominal venter (subsimilis usually at most has some signs of lateral black bands near spiracles).

Bromocoris sp. 2 - 2 - my ID, male and female from the Philippines. Once again the male genitalia is nearly identical to subsimilis, but the female genitalia is different (not squared off, but more like that seen in foetidus). The two specimens once again are long and slender and appear similar to Coctoteris species; they are more brownish mottled.

Bromocoris sp. 3 - 14 - my ID, these probably belong to another genus or their own new genus. They are quite large, and solid brown with black punctures. The female basal plates are shaped like foetidus with a notch on each side, the 8th paratergites are expanded apically and are bent such that they hang slightly over the edge of the basal plates. The lateral angles of the pygophore are greatly lengthened (somewhat like in foetidus), but they do not become spinose but rather are concave internally covering the greatly lengthened parameres which do become spinose apically.

Capivaccius bufo Distant - 1 - DAR exchange.

Cappaea taprobanensis - 13 - my ID - posterior margin of pygophore looks like what is drawn in Hsiao 1977; all from s. China.

Cappaea sp. 1 - 11, all from s. China.

Cappaea sp. 2 - 20, all from s. China

Note: There are only two described species of Cappaea, so there is apparently at least one undescribed species. In my opinion, neither of these species matched very well with the 2nd known species, tibialis. The pygophore is quite different from each other and also from the picture drawn in Hsiao 1977. Both species have the posterior margin much excavated without the lateral tooth like projections seen in taprobanensis . Species 2 does have a small black tooth on each side of the central excavation, and the tibiae are not distinctly banded with white in the middle. Species 1 lacks all teeth on pygophore and has a distinct white band on middle of each tibia. The basal plates are quite large in both species, but the posterior margin tucks back into the body much more in species 1.

Carbula sp. nr. scutellata - 28 mostly from Thailand, 2 from Vietnam - actually may be scutellata: general appearance is similar by distinct from scutellata; male genitalia is quite similar.

Carbula spp. (12) - some of these are probably undescribed. There is an interesting species from Taiwan (15 specimens) that have the anterior angles of the pronotum produced into spines laterad of eyes.

Carpocoris spp. - 5 - Yugoslavia, Japan, Germany

Catacanthus taiti - 20 - not my ID; all of their specimens are from the type locality (Henderson Island); one of the irridescent green species, very similar to viridicatus. In fact, I could see no real difference in the male or female genitalia between the 2 species, but there does seem to be a color difference. Taiti is more of bronzy green color with the lateral edge of the corium pale and the veins on the coria are extensively pale; the legs are light brown in color.

Catacanthus viridicatus - 84 - all but 17 my ID, from the Society Islands. Overall color more pure greenish irridescent than taiti and the corium has much less extensive pale along outer margin and on veins; the legs are black to reddish brown.

Catacanthus sp. 1 - 2 - from Samoa, similar to taiti except the tip of the scutellum is pale.

Catacanthus sp. 2 - 2 - from Guam, another irridescent green species, but has a pale transverse band across anterior pronotal disc, and the connexivum is nearly entirely green.

Catacanthus sp. 3 - 5 - from New Hebrides, much like viridicatus except dorsum is chocolate brown instead of irridescent green; male pygophore slightly different.

Catacanthus sp. 4 - whole drawer - Most specimens are from New Guinea; this may be carenoi. It is three toned, overall color is orange to red, the corium pale, almost white, the head and membranes are black, there is a black spot covering the base of the pronotum and the base of the scutellum and there is a black spot on middle of each corium.

Catacanthus sp. 5 - whole drawer - Most specimens are from Laos, with a few from Java, and 2 from the Philippines. This is an orange species with reduced black markings; there is no black markings on the base of the pronotum, the two black spots in the basal angles of the scutellum are small or wanting, and the black spots on the middle of each corium are reduced to small transverse bars. The spots are a little bigger on the Philippine specimens.

Catacanthus sp. 6 - 19 - all from New Guinea. Markings similar to sp. no. 4, except corial ground color same as rest of body - orange with black markings as described above; connexivum alternating orange and black. Male and female genitalia distinctive.

Catacanthus sp. 7 - 11 - all from New Guinea; marked as above except the black on the base of the pronotum is now connected to anterior pronotal black with a broad band of black; abdomenal spine stout as in typical Catacanthus sp. Connexivum uniformly orange.

Catacanthus sp. 8 - 9 - all from New Guinea. This species is somewhat of an enigma. It is colored nearly identical wi.th sp. no. 7. Its male and female genitalia seems to be nearly identical to sp. no. 7. The only real difference is that the abdominal spine is reduced to a very small spine which just barely protrudes between the hind coxae. They have a different gestalt also - I could usually pick them out from above.

Caura bipartita (Signoret) - 1 - DAR exchange.

Caura pugillator (Fabricius) - 2 - DAR exchange.

Caystrus quadrimaculatus Linnavuori - 1 - DAR exchange.

Caystrus spp. - lots - I separated the remaining specimens first into two groups: 1) smaller specimens which lacked the tooth in front of each eye, and 2) larger specimens which had a distinct tooth in front of each eye. The smaller specimens could be further divided into 5 species. The male genitalia was fairly distinct for all five. One matches the specimen above determined as pallipes. One is from s. India. Another is dark in color as pallipes lacking the pale margins of the abdominal venter and having the anterolateral pronotal margins straight to slightly sinuously concave. The remaining two species are pale in color, have a distinct pale lateral band on the abdominal venter, and have the anterolateral pronotal margins slightly convex. One of these two has only a thin pale stripe down the middle of the scutellum, while the other has this stripe plus a sublateral thin pale stripe on each side of the scutellum. The remaining large specimens with a tooth in front of each eye were left as one big group. I feel certain that these represent at least a couple species, but I was not for the time being able to put a finger on the differences. Most of these may actually match up with the specimen ID’d above as pallidolimbatus.
