Details of the egg, larval, and pupal morphology of Adeloneivaia fallax (Boisduval) (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) are described and illustrated and compared with other species of Saturniidae, more specifically with other Ceratocampinae. Egg ultrastructure is described for the first time in Ceratocampinae; larval chaetotaxy is documented for the first time in Adeloneivaia; and few pupal chara…
Despite the vast richness of species, there is an inherent difficulty in obtaining good local inventories for the family Lycaenidae due to the rarity of most of its species, which results both in a slow increase of species richness inventories and in low representation in collections. There are no foreign and national collections with representation of all species expected for the remnant…
The predatory stink bugs from the subfamily Asopinae are among the insects with potential use for the biological control of agricultural pests. Its species are distributed in a cosmopolitan way, and currently, are known 64 genera and about 300 species to the group. Despite their potential use in the integrated management of insect pests, the asopines have been little studied systematical…
Theages Walker, 1855 comprises eight species with a neotropical distribution, and is considered the only genus of Arctiinae with androconial organs on its abdomen's dorsal surface. These organs have a taxonomic importance that is acknowledged in many groups within Lepidoptera, yet the contributions with species of Arctiinae in the neotropical region are still lacking. The present work pro…
The genus Phoenicoprocta Druce, 1898 was established to accommodate P. metachrysea Druce, 1898, junior subjective synonym of P vacillans (Walker, 1856). It currently comprises 20 species, with distributions varying from endemic (to Caribbean, Mexico and moist forests from Central America) to widespread (from Mexico to Northern Argentina). This genus is known for presenting one of the most…

Theages Walker, 1855 is a Neotropical genus comprising eight species, of which four arerecorded in Brazil. The group is characterized by the presence of androconial organs in the dorsalabdominal surface of males. Despite the taxonomic relevance of the structures, they are yet to bethoroughly and systematically examined for subfamily Arctiinae. Similar to several genera ofArctiinae, Theage…
Limnocoris is a Neotropical genus of the aquatic bugs that includes 72 described species and living predominantly in benthos of the aquatic environments. This is the only valid genus within the subfamily Limnocorinae. The identity of several species is unclear due to very brief original descriptions, very small type-series, and lack of illustrations of the diagnostic characters. In recent…
Dargida Walker, 1856 (Noctuidae: Hadeninae) is an American genus, currently represented by 57 valid species. Although the existing records show that Dargida present continuous distribution from Canada to Chile and that have a preference for altitudes over 1400 meters above sea level, there are several gaps about the distribution of these moths in neotropic and nearctic regions, besides ta…
