ORTEGA-LEON, Guillermina  and  BRAILOVSKY, Harry. Description of the four nymphal stages of Anasa (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Coreidae: Coreini). Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2015, vol.86, n.4, pp.916-925. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2015.09.001.

The nymphal stages of four species of the genus Anasa Amyot and Serville: A. conspersa Stål, A. costalis Stål, A. impictipes Stål and A. maculipes Stål collected on cucurbits and bromeliads, are described and illustrated for the first time. A key for the fifth nymphal stages is given. This study could be of economic importance because some species were found on cucurbits acting as a potential pest.

Keywords : Coreidae; Cucurbitaceae; Bromeliaceae; Key.
