Item Redescription of Beamerella Knight and Hambletoniola Carvalho and included species (Hemiptera, Miridae), with a review of their relationships. American Museum novitates ; no. 2689(New York, N.Y. : American Museum of Natural History, 1979) Henry, Thomas J.; Schuh, Randall T."Larinocerus Froeschner is synonymized with Beamerella Knight. Beamerella and its two included species personatus Knight and balius Froeschner are redescribed as are Hambletoniola Carvalho and its single included species antennata Carvalho. A key to included genera and species as well as illustrations of the male and female genitalia, trichobothria, and pretarsal structures are provided. An asymmetrical 'lateral tube' is newly described for the female ganitalia of Beamerella and Hambletoniola; its occurrence is documented for some other Phylini. The interrelationships of the three taxa and their relationship to other Phylini are discussed"--P. [1].Item Revision of the North American Hallodapini (Insecta: Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae: Phylinae) (American Museum novitates, no. 3994)(American Museum of Natural History., 2023-02-17) Wyniger, Denise; Schuh, Randall T.; Henry, Thomas J.The North American Hallodapini are revised. Cyrtopeltocoris Reuter includes 12 species, five of which (C. brailovskyi, n. sp., C. fractifasciatus, n. sp., C. hallodapoides, n. sp., C. nudipronotum, n. sp., and C. pronotosus, n. sp.) are described as new. Five nominal species of Cyrtopeltocoris and three commingled species of Sericophanes Reuter are placed in synonymy, and a neotype is designated for C. mexicanus Carvalho and Costa. Phoradendrepulus Polhemus and Polhemus, described based on brachypterous males and females, is synonymized under Cyrtopeltocoris, new synonymy, and P. myrmecomorphus Polhemus and Polhemus is synonymized under C. ajo Knight. The new genus Neocyrtopeltocoris, described to include Sericophanes triangularis Knight (with Sericophanes albomaculatus Knight, S. fuscicornis Knight, and S. nevadensis Knight treated as junior synonyms) and N. froeschneri, n. sp., is placed in the Hallodapini. We provide habitus images, illustrations, measurements, and distribution maps for all taxa; genitalic illustrations for most taxa; and a key to the species of Cyrtopeltocoris and Neocyrtopeltocoris to aid in identification.Item Synopsis of the eastern North American species of the plant bug genus Parthenicus, with descriptions of three new species and a revised key (Heteroptera, Miridae, Orthotylinae) ; American Museum novitates, no. 3593(New York, NY : American Museum of Natural History, 2007) Henry, Thomas J.Three new species of the orthotyline genus Parthenicus Reuter are described and the seven previously known species of eastern North America are diagnosed. Parthenicus cruentus, n.sp. is described from Nebraska, P. sedumicola, n.sp. from Arkansas, and P. wheeleri, n.sp. from Oklahoma and Texas. A lectotype from Texas is designated and male genitalia are illustrated for P. psalliodes Reuter, the type species of the genus. Also provided are selected scanning electron photomicrographs and illustrations of the male genitalia for new species, a color habitus illustration for P. sedumicola, and for all species a color dorsal habitus photograph, hosts, and distribution information. A revised identification key to the 10 eastern species is given to help distinguish species.
