New records of Reduviidae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) from Colombia and other Neotropical countries Author Forero, Dimitri text Zootaxa 2006 1107 1 47 journal article 50829 10.5281/zenodo.171458 06ab81eb-f8e8-4b77-ad90-758c5ff37337 1175­5326 171458 Pessoaia limai Usinger, 1942 The genus Pessoaia Costa Lima, 1940 , has five described species ( Maldonado 1990 ). Wygodzinsky (1943) mention this species from Cuba citing Usinger (1942) , but the original description only mention specimens from “ Costa Rica .” Alayo (1967) also did not mention Pessoaia from Cuba . Therefore, without voucher specimens, the Cuban record must be considered an error. P. l i m a i is here recorded for the first time from Guyana and Trinidad . Drake & Harris (1945) recorded P. limai from “Bonda” in Colombia . This locality is in the Magdalena Department, 75 km east of Santa Marta city by road ( IGAC 1996 ). P. l i m a i was previously recorded from Costa Rica and Colombia (Maldonado 1995). Additional localities in the Colombian Caribbean coast are given here. Some of the Colombian specimens were found in a tropical dry forest. Since this species has never been figured, an illustration is given now ( Fig. 64 ). With these additional distributional data at hand, P. l i m a i seems to be restricted to the northern coast of South America and part of Central America .
