Hemiptera lace bug taxonomy new record identification key distribution eastern Asia

Abstract

Species of four lace bug genera of the subfamily Tinginae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Tingidae), namely Cysteochila Stål, 1873, Hurdchila Drake, 1953, Physatocheila Fieber, 1844, and Xynotingis Drake, 1948, occurring in Japan, are revised. A total of 13 species are identified and diagnosed. Previous records of Cysteochila consueta Drake, 1948 from Japan are considered to be the misidentification of C. chiniana Drake, 1942. Limnostatua gen. nov. is described to accommodate Leptodictya (currently Hurdchila) lewisi Scott, 1880 (type species of the new genus). A new synonymy is proposed: Limnostatua lewisi (Scott, 1880), comb. nov. = Cysteochila vota Drake, 1948 syn. nov. Three new combinations, namely Physatocheila chiniana (Drake, 1942) comb. nov., P. consueta (Drake, 1948) comb. nov., and P. euthenia (Drake & Ruhoff, 1965) comb. nov., all of which were transferred from Cysteochila, are proposed. Three species, namely C. abundantis Drake & Poor, 1937, P. consueta comb. nov. (previous records all pertaining to misidentifications) and P. euthenia comb. nov., are newly recorded from Japan. Finally, identification keys for Japanese tingid genera and subgenera as well as for species of Cysteochila and Physatocheila are provided.
