Abstract

CHAVERRA-RODRIGUEZ, DUVERNEY; FORERO, DIMITRI; JARAMILLO O, NICOLÁS  and  TRIANA CH, OMAR. New record and ecological notes of Phimophorus spissicornis (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Phimophorinae) in Colombia. Rev. Colomb. Entomol. [online]. 2010, vol.36, n.1, pp.176-178. ISSN 0120-0488.

Phimophorus spissicornis, the enigmatic and exclusively Neotropical representative of the Phimophorinae (Heteroptera: Reduviidae), is recorded for the first time from Colombia. Six adult specimens and one nymph were collected in the municipalities of Vegachí and San Carlos, department of Antioquia. In both localities P. spissicornis was collected from palms (Arecaceae) in associatión with Rhodnius pallescens (Reduviidae: Triatominae). Phimophorus spissicornis was found on the axils of palm fronds of Attalea butyracea and Oenocarpus bataua. Dorsal habitus illustrations of the male, female, and late instar nymph of P. spissicornis are provided.

Keywords : Attalea; Rhodnius pallescens; Arecaceae.
