New records and update on the geographic distribution of fifteen species of Lincus St?l, 1867 (Insecta: Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) associated with palms and coconut trees in the Neotropics

摘要

The Neotropical genus Lincus St?l, 1867 is frequently associated with the transmission of diseases to palms and coconut trees (Elaeis guineensis and Cocos nucifera) in commercial plantations in South America. Here we update the geographical distribution of 15 species of Lincus collected in E. guineensis and C. nucifera in the Neotropics. The geographical range of five species is expanded with new countries recorded for L. malevolus and L. styliger, and detailed geographic information is given for the first time for L. lobuliger and L. securiger.
