“…However, neither Neotibilis nor Serdia share these characteristics. More recently, Roell & Campos (2019) also supported the close relationship between these two tribes, although the monophyly of the subfamily was blurred with the inclusion of Janeirona Distant, a genus currently included in the Pentatomini that is a nonmonophyletic taxon (see the discussion in the following). The preliminary results obtained from distinct analyses (i.e., Schwertner et al, 2017;Genevcius et al, 2021;Schwertner et al, unpublished) found similar results regarding the monophyly and relationships of the Discocephalinae.…”

Pentatomidae is one of the largest families within the Heteroptera and contains many species of economic importance, either by being plant pests or by their usefulness as biological control agents. The family is subdivided into as many as ten subfamilies; however, the monophyly of this taxon and phylogenetic relationships within the family have remained unstudied. In this paper, molecular data from mitochondrial [COI (564 bp), 16S RNA (592 bp)] and nuclear genes [28S RNA (646 bp), 18S RNA (1759 bp)] concatenated into a single matrix of 3589 bp, with a sampling of 160 taxa, were used to test the monophyly of the family and relationships based on Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI) analyses. Both approaches yielded very similar topologies. The most striking result recovered in both analyses is the rejection of the monophyly of Pentatomidae as currently recognized, since Cyrtocorinae do not show a sister relationship with the clade composed of (Serbana + Pentatomidae sensu stricto) in any of the analyses. We corroborate Serbaninae as the sister lineage to all remaining Pentatomidae sensu stricto, and not as a member of Phloeidae as previously hypothesized. The monophyly of Podopinae and Pentatominae, and some of their respective tribes, is rejected. We discuss the current classification of this family and highlight the necessity of a reinterpretation based on the results herein obtained pointing out some of their morphological features. Additionally, cyrtocorids are defined as an independent lineage and upgraded to Cyrtocoridae stat. rev.

“…But in this case it could be argued that it is the spiracles rather than the trichobothria that are displaced from the typical position. Recently, Roell & Campos (2019) reassigned the genus Janeirona Distant from the Pentatominae to the Discocephalinae: Ochlerini because of the trichobothria being lateral to the spiracles and in spite of the rostral insertion anterior to the antennal base.…”

“…Placocoris differs from Adoxoplatys and Neoadoxoplatys primarily by the condition of the labium which is short, the first segment shorter than the bucculae (surpassing the bucculae in all other ochlerines) and without an intercalary segment (a defining characteristic of Adoxoplatys and Neoadoxoplatys, but absent also in Pseudadoxoplatys); and in the shape of the mesosternum, which is flat in Placocoris but carinate in the latter two. Similarly, Roell & Campos (2019) placed Janeirona with the Adoxoplatys clade sharing the abdominal tubercle in apposition to the elevated metasternum. Janeirona, like Placocoris, has a short labium and bucculae confluent behind.…”

The pentatomid genus Placocoris Mayr is removed from Pentatominae and placed in Discocephalinae: Ochlerini based on the trichobothrial arrangement. Within the Ochlerini Placocoris shares characteristics with a clade composed of Adoxoplatys and allies including the rostrum arising anteriorad, abdomen with tubercle at middle base received by a notch in the metasternum, bucculae confluent posteriorly, pronotum flat, and a double row of spines on the femora. It appears to share the same host plants with Neoadoxoplatys, species of bamboo. It is further concluded that the genus Chrysodarecus Breddin is a junior synonym of Placocoris Mayr.

“…The Discocephalinae Fieber, 1860 (Pentatomidae) are distributed mainly in the Neotropical Region with a few species recorded in the southern Nearctic (Grazia & Schwertner 2011, Grazia et al 2015, Garbelotto et al 2018. The species in the subfamily are small to medium sized, brown to black (Schuh & Slater 1995, Grazia et al 1999, and classified in two tribes, Discocephalini Fieber, 1860 with 46 genera (Rider et al 2018), and Ochlerini Rolston, 1981 with 37 genera (Roell & Campos 2019). The species in the nominal subfamily are recognized by the labium usually inserted on or posterior to an imaginary transversal line drawn at the anterior limit of the eyes, and by the abdominal trichobothria lateral to an imaginary line connecting the spiracles (Rolston & McDonald 1979, Rolston 1981, Roell & Campos 2015, Garbelotto 2015.…”

Ischnopelta Stål, 1868 is a Discocephalini genus with three known species, I. scutellata (Signoret, 1851), I. oblonga (Fieber, 1851), and I. luteicornis (Walker, 1867), and distribution restricted to South America. The examination of 284 specimens from several localities in Venezuela, Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, and Paraguay, revealed the existence of new species. Measurements of 24 morphometric parameters were taken using stereomicroscope and tpsDig2 version 2.16 from images captured with an MShot MD50 camera coupled to a Techno RZ stereomicroscope and edited in MShot DIS version 1.1. The genitalia of both sexes was dissected upon specimen availability, digested in KOH 10%, dehydrated in ethanol 70%, stained in Congo red (when needed), and preserved in liquid glycerin. Photographs were made in a Nikon AZ100M stereomicroscope, and a focus stacking procedure was done with Nikon NIS-Elements Ar Microscope Imaging Software. Drawings were produced over the images with a vectorial image processor. In this work Ischnopelta is revised, I. scutellata and I. luteicornis are redescribed, and keys to males and females of the species are proposed. We describe 20 new species: I. alalonga sp. n., I. anangulata sp. n., I. bechyneorum sp. n., I. confusa sp. n., I. coralinae sp. n., I. cordiformis sp. n., I. crassula sp. n., I. cristulata sp. n., I. cylindrata sp. n., I. guarani sp. n., I. impunctata sp. n., I. magna sp. n., I. marginella sp. n., I. montana sp. n., I. paiagua sp. n., I. parvula sp. n., I. pellucidula sp. n., I. ruckesi sp. n., I. vellozia sp. n., and I. wigodzinskyi sp. n.. We were unable to locate the syntypes of I. oblonga (Fieber, 1851) and the species is treated here as incertae sedis.
