Abstract
The geocorine (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Lygaeoidea: Geocoridae) true bug genus Umbrageocoris Kóbor, 2019 is redefined based on new morphological information from newly acquired specimens. Two new species are described: U. booneisp. nov. from continental Indomalaya and U. malipatilisp. nov. from Australia; two new combinations are proposed: U. elegantulus (Distant, 1904), comb. nov., and U. woodwardi (Malipatil, 1994), comb. nov. (both transferred from Geocoris Fallén, 1814). Keys, diagnoses, and distribution data to the discussed species are provided. Hypotheses on the origin of Umbrageocoris and its relationship to other geocorine genera in the region are formulated. New country records: U. elegantulus (Papua New Guinea), U. maai maai (Thailand, Laos) and U. woodwardi (Papua New Guinea).
期刊介绍:
Founded in 1857 as Berliner Entomologische Zeitschrift, Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift is one of the World''s oldest international journals of systematic entomology. It publishes original research papers in English on the systematics, taxonomy, phylogeny, comparative morphology, and biogeography of insects. Other arthropods are also considered where of relevance to the biology of insects. The geographical scope of the journal is worldwide.
Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift (DEZ) is dedicated to provide an open access, high-quality forum to contribute to the documentation of insect species, their distribution, their properties, and their phylogenetic relationships. All submitted manuscripts are subject to peer-review by the leading specialists for the respective topic. The journal is published in open access high-resolution PDF, semantically enriched HTML and machine-readable XML versions.
