Published: January 2013

A new species of Dichelops (Diceraeus) Dallas and the so-far unknown male of Dichelops (Prodichelops) divisus (Walker, 1867) are described, based upon morphological characters. D. (Dice.) caatinguensis sp. nov. is compared to the other four species of Diceraeus. Revised keys to separate the subgenera of Dichelops and the species of Diceraeus are also presented. D. (P.) divisus male is described and compared to the type species. Comparative illustrations of external and internal genitalia of the species are provided.

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) from Heterorhabditidae and Steinernematidae families are extensively used to control insect pests. In Brazil, however, relatively few studies have identified and characterized these entomopathogens. The objective of this study was to identify and characterize an EPN isolate obtained from soil samples collected in the state of Paraná, Brazil.

Over the last decades, Argentine and Brazilian farmers have adopted no-tillage cultivation systems and multiple cropping, which have decreased the abundance of traditional pests, such as Nezara viridula, and favored the development of some stink bugs of secondary importance, like Dichelops furcatus, D. melacanthus and Euschistus heros. No-till farming leaves the soil undisturbed, to mitigate erosion, and sufficient crop residue on the field, which is used by D.

Background: Recently, in temperate and neotropical regions of South America the generalist stink bug Dichelops furcatus (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) became a new pest of corn (Zea mays) seedlings. Implementation of no-tillage cultivation system left organic matter covering the soil, which shelters adults of stink bugs during winter. In spring, corn is sowed under soybean stubble and D.

In this paper, we present new cytogenetic data for three species of the family Pentatomidae: (Dallas, 1851), (Palisot de Beauvois, 1805), and (Dallas, 1851). All studied species presented holocentric chromosomes and inverted meiosis for the sex chromosomes. has 2 = 12 (10A + XY); showed 2 = 14 (12A + XY); and showed 2 = 14 (12A + XY).
