    a2 PAN-PACIFIC ENTOMOLOGIST 75(3): 130-146, (1999) AN ANALYSIS OF THE GENUS SALAPIA STAL WITH DESCRIPTION OF SIX NEW SPECIES, AND SOME TAXONOMIC REARRANGEMENTS (HEMIPTERA: HETEROPTERA: COREIDAE: ACANTHOCEPHALINI) Harry BRAILOYSKY AND ERNESTO BARRERA Instituto de Biologfa, UNAM, Depto. de Zoologia, Apdo Postal No. 70-153, México 04510, D.F México Abstract —Six new species of Salapia Stil from Brazil, Ecuador, and Peru are described and illustrated. Salapia humeralis (Burmeister) is redescribed. Salapia guttifera (Stil) is transferred to the genus Stenometapodus, resulting in the new combination Stenometapodus guttifer (Stil), A key to the known species of Salapia is included. Key Words —Insecta, Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Coreidae, Acanthocephalini, Salapia, new species, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru Brailoysky (1992) revised the genus Salapia Stil, described four new spe- cies, and transferred Laminiceps haenschi Breddin (1901) to Salapia. In the same contribution he added new records for some species, and included a key to the known taxa, except S. humeralis (Burmeister) and S. guitifera (Stal) because the types were not located and the original description was too short to find good characters to separate from the other known species. However, the discovery of the types of S. humeralis and S. guitifera in the Museum der Humboldt Universitat zu Berlin, six undescribed species, and some taxonom- ical problems made the present analysis, which includes a key to the known species necessary The genus Salapia is characterized by an elongate body; cylindrical hind tibiae that is not expanded; rostrum never extending to abdomen with segment IV the shortest, segment II the longest, and segment III longer than I; scutellum longer than wide, humeral angles acute, and metathoracic peritreme with two auricles, The closely related genus Laminiceps Costa is similar to Salapia except for the body robust, nearly oval, never parallel-sided, the scutellum wider than long, and the humeral angles obtuse, not acute. Previously, twelve species of Salapia (S. abdominalis (Dallas), S. baraquini (Signoret), S. dimidiata (Dallas), S. guttifera (Stal), S. haenschi (Breddin), S Jumeralis (Burmeister), S. luteola Brailovsky, S. nigra Brailovsky, S. pallida Brai- lovsky, S. pretiosa Blote, S. selecta Brailovsky, and S. signata (Dallas)) were known. In this paper we add six new species collected in Brazil, Ecuador and Peru, and one species, S. guttifera, is transferred to the genus Stenometapodus, forming the new combination Stenometapodus guttifer. With this contribution, the current number of species known in Salapia is 17. SALAPIA CAUCALANDIA BRAILOVSKY AND BARRERA, NEW SPECIES (Figs. 1, 9) Types.—Holotype: female; data: BRAZIL.
