Description

Stilbocoris sp. nov.

Studied material. S. Madagascar 2013/14. i.; Mahafaly Plateau/Antanambao near Bezaha/ M. Trýzna leg. (2 ♀♀, MMBC)

The two female specimens represent an additional undescribed species of Stilbocoris. This species is characterized by a short but dense pilosity on the pronotum, a sparsely pilose scutellum, and scattered short setae on the hemelytra. In many respects it is transitional between genera Parastilbocoris and Stilbocoris, making the limits of the two genera somewhat blurred. We refrain from formal description of this species at the present in the hope that males can be acquired later.
