A revision of the genus Hemitrochostoma (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Plataspidae)

Abstract

The genus Hemitrochostoma Bergroth, 1913 (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Plataspidae) is redescribed and reviewed. Two species are recognized: the type species H. altilabris Bergroth, 1913 (Malaysia: Sarawak), and H. rutabulum sp. n. (Malaysia: Perak). The following new subjective synonymies are proposed: Hemitrochostoma Bergroth, 1913 = Inflatilabrum Tomokuni, 2012, syn. n.; H. altilabris Bergroth, 1913 = I. lambirense Tomokuni, 2012, syn. n.
