Department of Entomology, Faculty of Biology and Soil Sciences, St. Petersburg State University, Universitetskaya nab 7/9, St. Petersburg 199034, Russia
Heteroptera taxonomy key synonym revised combination

Abstract

Leucodellus is redefined to include six species and an updated diagnosis is given for this phyline genus. Illustrated keyand diagnoses for all species are provided. The genus Leucophylus Duwal, Yasunaga & Lee is synonymized with Leucodellus Reuter, 1906. L. nathaliae Josifov, 1974 is transferred to the genus Compsidolon Reuter, 1899.
