    Valdesiana curiosa Carpintero & Dellapé n.sp. (Figs. 1, 3) Description. Female holotype: General colour reddish brown. Head: reddish brown, clypeus darker distally, antennal segment I reddish brown, segments. II, III, and IV dark brown, with short decumbent silver setae and semierect setae on segments III and IV. Rostrum dark brown except segment I reddish brown. Pronotum: reddish brown, darker basally; scutellum reddish brown, darker at apex. Hemelytra dark brown, twice length of scutellum; hind wings present, and subequal in length to hemelytra. Legs reddish brown, tibiae and tarsi darker. Abdomen: reddish brown with irregular darker areas, with short decumbent silver setae. Measurements. Total length: 4.37. Width (maximum across abdomen): 1.97. Head. Length: 0.49 width: 0,75; vertex 0.51 Antennae. Length segment I: 0.30; II: 1.07; III: 0.38; IV: 0.29. Pronotum. Length: 0.76; width at base: 1.23. Etymology. The specific epithet means ‘curious, striking,’ and refers to the particular aspect of this new species. Comments. Despite considerable collection efforts in Península Valdés using pitfall traps, only one female individual of this new taxon was collected. The fact that probably all Clivinematini are predaceous (Ferreira, 1998) and not abundant in collections, the particular head and pronotum morphology, and the micropterous condition of this taxon (possibly adaptations to desertic conditions), as well as the need for greater knowledge of the local fauna, have encouraged us to describe it.

    Lasiocolpus rostralis (Poppius, 1909) (Fig. 267) Whiteiella rostralis Poppius, 1909:14 Lasiocolpus rostralis: Carpintero 2002: 28 Diagnosis: Characterized by the coloration of pronotum and scutellum, slightly reduced and laterally sinuate hemelytra, shape of cuneus and membrana, segment II of labium not extending beyond the centre of mesosternum, and males with midtibiae similar to foretibiae in having a row of teeth. Redescription: Measurements, see Table VII. Male. Dorsal view: Body oval. General coloration dark brown, antennae (excepting darker basal half of segment II), collar, extreme base of pronotum and central spot on pronotum, scutellum (excepting blackish spot on mesoscutellum and in some specimens with another preapical spot), basal half of clavus, basal third of corion, round spot on base of cuneus and tip of cuneus pale. Pilosity short, semierect. Head: Eyes small; anteocular region longer than eye length. Proportion of antennal segments (I:II:III:IV) 1: 3.1: 2.6: 2.7. Labial segment II not surpassing hindcoxae. Thorax: Pronotum with lateral margins slightly sinuate; carinate in apical half; collar narrow; calli large but not very protuberant; posterior lobe very narrow, sparsely punctured and wrinkled (Fig. 283). Hemelytra translucent, almost reaching apex of abdomen, sinuate by reason of broadened exocorion near mid length (Fig. 284); cuneus short and broad; membrana from tip of cuneus not longer than length of cuneus. Ventrally pale with median stripe darker on meso- and metapleura of some specimens. Pilosity decumbent, short, abundant. Midtibiae with row of teeth on ventral surface, similar to foretibiae. Abdomen: Hairs on dorsal surface of abdomen short on outer margins; very sparse, short hairs centrally. Genitalia: Right paramere vestigial; left paramere long and slightly sinuate, distally pointed (Fig. 282). Female: Same coloration as male, more robust. Proportion of antennal segments (I:II:III:IV) 1: 3.3: 2.1: 1.8. Genitalia as in Fig. 285. Distribution: Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay (Fig. 270). Material examined: ARGENTINA: ♀ Misiones, P. N. Iguazu, Misiones, Argentina, XII-79, Carpintero col. MACN; BRAZIL: ♂, Nova Teutonia, 27O 11S, 52 23¨ W, F. Plaumann, VI-1953, ex litter, Brit.Mus. 1959-604.

Discussion: Whiteiella was described by Poppius (1909) who considered it to be systematically very distant from Lasiocolpus due to its lack of a hamus. Carayon (1972a) demonstrated the low systematic value of the presence or absence of this structure, thereby confirming that this species belongs to the genus Lasiocolpus. It differs from L. unicolor (which is closely resembles) by having a shorter labium and different coloration, as well as by characters of the male genitalia.Published as part of Carpintero, Diego Leonardo, 2014, Western Hemisphere Lasiochilinae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Anthocoridae) with comments on some extralimital species and some considerations on suprageneric relationships, pp. 1-87 in Zootaxa 3871 (1) on pages 70-71, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3871.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/494785

It was considered close to <i>Brontostoma discus</i> from which it differed not only for its larger size and distinct coloration, but also by the presence of subbasal processes on femora, protuberances on gula, shape of scutellum and biometry (Carpintero 1980). Taking into account the presence of processes near the base of the femora, it is possible that <i>B. cicheroi</i> might be a junior synonym of <i>B. discus</i> too. Additional specimens fitting the color pattern described by Carpintero (1980) might help to elucidate the genitalic structure, and thus, the placement of this species.Unfortunately, the female holotype of <i>B. cicheroi</i> was not available to be examined in MACN, where it was deposited, when the first author (HRG-S) visited this institution in 2018. Therefore, its taxonomic status is still uncertain.</p>Published as part of <i>Gil-Santana, Hélcio R., Oliveira, Jader & Bérenger, Jean-Michel, 2021, A revalidation and new synonymies among some species of Brontostoma Kirkaldy (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Ectrichodiinae), pp. 388-405 in Zootaxa 4958 (1)</i> on pages 401-402, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4958.1.25, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/4692120">http://zenodo.org/record/4692120</a&gt

    <i>Parapothea</i> <i>jaguaris</i> Carpintero, 1980 <p> <i>Parapothea</i> Carpintero, 1980 is a monotypic genus. <i>P. jaguaris</i> was described from a single female specimen from Bolivia (Carpintero 1980). Forero (2006) recorded another species of <i>Parapothea</i> in Colombia, which will be described formally later. The female examined here (Figs. 2 –3) is very similar to the original description of <i>P. jaguaris</i> (Carpintero, 1980), and must be regarded as the same species.</p> <p> <b>New records</b>.

    Comefulvius Carvalho & Carpintero, 1985 (Figures 1 –13) Comefulvius Carvalho & Carpintero, 1985: 510 (as new genus) [type species: Comefulvius chingonus Carvalho & Carpintero, 1985, by original designation]. Comefulvius: Carvalho & Froeschner, 1990: 319 (catalog of Carvalho’s types); Carvalho & Ferreira, 1994: 328 (key of Neotropical genera of Cylapinae); Schuh, 1995: 21 (catalog), 2002–2013 (online catalog); Gorczyca, 2000: 49 (list of genera of the tribe Fulviini), 2006: 27 (catalog). Diagnosis. Easily distinguished from other Cylapinae by the following set of characters: head strongly elongated and pointed, horizontal (Figs. 1–4); labium very long and thin, with segment I very short, barely reaching buccula medially (Fig. 8); labial segment II longest, reaching metacoxae; scent gland efferent system absent; costal fracture absent (Figs. 1–2); corium and clavus with several rows of black punctures (Fig. 2). Redescription. Male. Structure, texture, and vestiture. Body suboval; dorsal surface matte, covered with dense, scalelike setae. Head. Strongly elongated horizontally, rugose with verrucose areas, also covered with scalelike setae; eye large, contiguous with pronotal collar, occupying practically entire head height in lateral view; antenniferous tubercle separated of anterior margin of eye; clypeus elongate, antenna short; antennal segment I relatively short, not reaching the apex of head, almost cylindrical, slightly thickened toward apex, mixed with sparse, simple, semirecumbent setae and very sparse, scalelike, adpressed setae; segment II cylindrical, covered with dense, semirecumbent setae; segments III and IV somewhat more slender that segment II, mixed with relatively dense, semirecumbent setae and with sparse, erect, relatively long setae; labium very thin, reaching slightly beyond metacoxae; labial segment I somewhat thicker than segments II–IV, very short, barely reaching posterior portion of buccula; remaining segments very thin, with segment II very long, much longer than III and IV combined. Thorax. Pronotum. Rugose, with verrucose areas, trapezoidal; collar distinct, well separated from remainder of pronotum; calli large, occupying 2 / 3 of pronotal disk area, not strongly raised; lateral margin with indistinct carina along entire length; posterior margin slightly arcuate. Scutellum and mesoscutum. Mesoscutum large, uncovered, posterior margin rounded; scutellum pointed, flat, verrucose, covered with relatively sparse setae, except for two characteristic bundles of contrastingly whitish setae, each situated basolaterally. Thoracic pleura. Covered with scalelike setae, being more densely distributed on proepisternum and metepisternum; proepisternum and proepimeron strongly rugose; remaining pleura, except for metepisternum weakly rugose; metepisternum verrucose; scent gland efferent system absent. Hemelytron. Matte, not rugose or verrucose as remainder of dorsum; corium with four rows of punctures: two present along medial fracture and R+M vein and two present along the latter; clavus with row of punctures along claval suture and along claval margin; embolium (exocorium) wide; costal fracture absent; membrane with single cell, reduced. Legs. Tarsus two-segmented; tarsomere II subdivided medially; pretarsal claw strongly toothed subapically. Male genitalia. Aedeagus (Fig. 9). Endosoma strongly elongate, broader toward apex, membranous; ductus seminis long, reaching subapical portion of endosoma, relatively thick, terminating in a small, horseshoe-shaped sclerite. Left paramere (Figs. 10–11). Moderately curved; apical process relatively short, broad and obtuse at apex; paramere body thick, covered with sparse setae. Right paramere (Fig. 12). Apical process strongly reduced; paramere body with rounded dorsal margin and strongly sinuate ventral margin. Female. Unknown. Discussion. Comefulvius is most similar to Incafulvius Carvalho and Xenocylapus Bergroth in sharing the peculiar, very long and thin labium, with the segment I very short, not reaching the middle of the gula and with segment II much longer than segments III and IV (Fig. 8; Carvalho 1976; van Doesburg 1985: Fig. 5). Such distinctive shape of the labium clearly delimits these three genera as a distinct group within Cylapinae. Additionally, Comefulvius shares with Incafulvius and Xenocylapus the lack of the scent gland efferent system of the metepisternum; Carvalho 1976; Wolski pers. obs.) and the absence of costal fracture (Carvalho 1976: Fig. 1; van Doesburg 1985: Fig. 1). Comefulvius is also similar to Xenocylapus in sharing the compact, strongly elongated and apically broad endosoma (Fig. 9; Wolski pers. obs.). Comefulvius is distinguished from Incafulvius and Xenocylapus by the strongly elongated head, the shape of clypeus and the shape of pronotal callosities (Figs. 1 –2, 5– 6; Carvalho 1976: Fig. 1; van Doesburg 1985: Fig. 1). Comefulvius can be also distinguished from both genera in possessing seven rows of punctures on the hemelytron (Figs. 1, 6) whereas Incafulvius has one and Xenocylapus has three to five punctured hemelytral rows (Carvalho 1976; van Doesburg 1985).Published as part of Chérot, Frédéric, Carpintero, Diego L. & Wolski, Andrzej, 2014, New record and redescription of the monotypic genus Comefulvius Carvalho & Carpintero, 1985 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae: Cylapinae), pp. 495-500 in Zootaxa 3765 (5) on pages 496-498, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3765.5.7, http://zenodo.org/record/22659
