A Review of the Genus Tiridates Stal (Heteroptera: Pentatomoidea: Scutelleridae)
Abstract
The genus Tiridates Stal is redescribed and compared to Agonosoma Laporte. The two included species and a new subspecies, T. rubrocinctus schaffneri, are described, figured, and keyed. Tiridates rubrocinctus sexmaculata Kirkaldy, T. rubrocinctus decolor Kirkaldy, T. rubrocinctus decemmaculata Kirkaldy, and T. rubrocinctus magnifica Kirkaldy, names proposed for Stal's (1862) varieties a-d, are placed in the synonymy of T. rubrocinctus rubrocinctus (Herrich-Schaeffer). Lectotypes and paralectotypes are designated for T. rubrocinctus sexmaculata and T. rubrocinctus decolor and a lectotype is designated for T. rubrocinctus decemmaculata.Downloads
