The genus Stenometapodus Breddin, 1903 (Coreidae: Coreinae: Acanthocephalini) is redescribed and one new species, Stenometapodus aurantiacus sp. nov., is described from Brazil. The new species is distinguished by a combination of color patterns and morphological characters, such as the shape of pronotum. A key to the known species of Stenometapodus is included. A new genus, Zygometapodus gen. nov., is proposed for Stenometapodus castaneus Blöte, 1938. New distribution records for Zygometapodus castaneus (Blöte, 1938) comb. nov. from Bolivia and Peru are provided. Dorsal photos of each species of Stenometapodus and Zygometapodus are also provided.

Accepted: 12th April 2018 Published online: 29th May 2018 Introduction BREDDIN (1903) described the genus Stenometapodus based on a male collected in Bolivia, which became the type species with the binomial combination S. v-luteum Breddin, 1903. In the same paper he described a variety based on a female also collected in Bolivia, which he named S. v-luteum var. impictus Breddin, 1903. Subsequently, BLÖTE (1938) added a new species, S. castaneus Blöte, 1938, from Peru, raised S. v-luteum var. impictus to species rank with the binomen S. impictus, recording distribution of S. v-luteum and S. impictus in Peru. BRAILOVSKY (1984) recognized four species, including one new: S. ambiguus Brailovsky, 1984, S. castaneus, S. impictus, and S. v-luteum. Later BRAILOVSKY & BARRERA (1999), analyzed the genus Salapia Stål, 1860 and transferred Salapia guttifer Stål, 1860 (see STÅL 1860) to the genus Stenometapodus. Upon examination of all the known species in the genus and comparing their morphologies it became obvious that one of them, S. castaneus differed signifi cantly from the rest; therefore, a new genus is proposed and described for it here, indicating the characters that defi ne it. In addition, a new species of Stenometapodus is described from Brazil. Material and methods Pictures were taken with a Nikon D200 camera.

Prosternum deeply concave; meso-, and metasternum not sulcate; metapleural supracoxal spine diffi cult to see in males, absent in females; metathoracic scent gland peritreme with a single auricle. Legs. Male hind trochanter with or without two ventral tubercles near apex; in females always smooth; fore and middle femora slender, ventrally armed with two rows of spines, and dorsally smooth; hind femur strongly incrassate in males, less so in females, slightly surpassing the apex of abdomen, ventrally with two rows of spines, and dorsally with one to three rows of stout to acute spines; in each sex the inner and outer surface of hind femora are longitudinally sulcate, more deeply in males; fore and middle tibiae cylindrical, unarmed, sulcate; hind tibiae longer than abdomen, inner and outer surface slightly expanded; inner expansion strongly spinose and outer expansion smooth in both sexes; outer expansion narrow, armed with short spines or denticles. Scutellum longer than wide, apically subacute; disk fl at, triangular, coarsely and transversely striated, and clothed with erect setae. Hemelytra. Macropterous, extending beyond the apex of the last abdominal segment; clavus and corium fi nely and densely punctate; veins prominent. Abdomen. Connexivum raised above terga; upper surface of whole body of males densely covered with short to long spines; in females always smooth; abdominal terga without medial furrow; abdominal spiracles closer to anterior border of each sternite. Male genitalia. Genital capsule. Posteroventral edge with lateral angles rounded, and area between them with small sized concavity, extending dorsally into a shallow, medially fl attened tongue. Female genitalia. Abdominal sternite VII with fi ssure scarcely visible; plica quadrate, broad, reaching apical third of sternite VII; gonocoxae I triangular, in caudal view close to each other; paratergite VIII subtriangular with spiracle visible; paratergite IX quadrate, longer than VIII. Differential diagnosis. The genus Stenometapodus is similar to Meluchopetalops Breddin, 1903, Cervantistellus Brailovsky & Barrera, 2005, Empedocles Stål, 1867 and Ichilocoris Brailovsky & Barrera, 2001 by having the hind tibiae expanded, antennal segment I internally ridged, and posterior angles of male connexival segments V and VI spinose. In Empedocles the pronotal disk is clearly tuberculate and impunctate; the collar indistinct; and the outer expansion of hind tibiae in both sexes with one or two deep shallow emarginations. In the other genera the pronotal disk lacks tubercles, and is clearly punctate; the collar well demarcated; and the outer expansion of hind tibia in both sexes is lanceolate or narrowed. Stenometapodus is clearly distinguished from all the genera by having the hind tibiae longer than abdomen; the humeral angles of pronotum exposed and acute; the antennal segment IV is shorter than segments II and III combined; and scutellar disk with erect setae. In Meluchopetalops the hind tibiae are shorter than the abdomen; the humeral angles of pronotum are obtuse; the antennal segment IV is longer than segments II and III combined; and the scutellum lacks erect setae. In Cervantistellus the upper margin of male connexival segments VI and VII has one robust spine apically truncated and located near the anterior margin, and eventually with a few tubercles along the entire edge; and the humeral angles are produced into broad sharp spines, turning backwards. In comparison, the Stenometapodus has the upper margin of male connexival segments VI to VII remarkably spined and denticulate; and the humeral angles are clearly acute. Ichilocoris can be defi ned by having the apex of the scutellum globose, with a creamy yellow callosity. In the other genera, the apex is fl at and subacute. Stenometapodus aurantiacus sp. nov.
