Abstract

Abstract. The bow-legged bug genus Hyalymenus Amyot & Serville, 1843 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Coreoidea: Alydidae) includes 20 New World species. Of these, nymphs of only one species, H. tarsatus (Fabricius, 1803), have been described, and the description was restricted to the fifth instar. Nine specimens of H. subinermis Van Duzee, 1923, representing the first through the fifth instars, were collected on two Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi (Anacardiaceae) shrubs from a residential neighborhood (approximately 177,828 m2 surveyed) in Long Beach, California, U.S.A. in June 2021. Several other locations within the city were surveyed (i.e., parks, residential areas, and riparian habitats; approximately 109,177 m2 surveyed, collectively), but this species was not observed on other S. terebinthifolia plants or other plant species in these areas. Here, we give the first California record for H. subinermis, describe the five nymphal instars, provide habitus images of each instar, and discuss the distribution of the species in California, known host plants, and putative ant models that nymphs may mimic.
关于弓腿虫的第一个记录,Hyalymenus subinermis Van Duzee,1923年(半翅目:异翅目:Alydidae),在加利福尼亚州,描述了模拟未成熟阶段
摘要弓腿虫属Hyalymenus Amyot&Serville,1843(半翅目:异翅目:总科:蚁科)包括20个新世界物种。其中,只有一个物种的若虫,H.tarsatus(Fabricius,1803),已经被描述过,并且描述仅限于五龄。2021年6月,在美国加利福尼亚州长滩的一个住宅区(调查面积约177828平方米)的两个Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi(Anacardiaceae)灌木上采集了9个H.subinermis Van Duzee标本,1923年,代表了第一龄至第五龄。对城市内的其他几个地点进行了调查(即公园、住宅区和河岸栖息地;总共调查了约109177平方米),但在这些地区的其他terebinthifolia植物或其他植物物种上没有观察到该物种。在这里,我们给出了加州首次记录的H.subinermis,描述了五个若虫龄,提供了每个若虫龄的习性图像,并讨论了该物种在加州的分布、已知的寄主植物以及若虫可能模仿的假定蚂蚁模型。

期刊介绍: The Pan-Pacific Entomologist (ISSN 0031-0603) is published quarterly (January, April, July and October) by the Pacific Coast Entomological Society, in cooperation with the California Academy of Sciences. The journal serves as a refereed publication outlet and accepts manuscripts on all aspects of the biosystematics of insects and closely related arthropods, especially articles dealing with their taxonomy, biology, behavior, ecology, life history, biogeography and distribution. Membership in the Pacific Coast Entomological Society includes subscription to The Pan-Pacific Entomologist, and Society Proceedings typically appear in the October issue of each volume.
