Synopsis and keys to the tribes, genera, and species of Miridae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) of Minas Gerais, Brazil Part I: Bryocorinae Author Ferreira, Paulo Sergio Fiuza Author Henry, Thomas J. text Zootaxa 2011 2920 1 41 journal article 46643 10.5281/zenodo.277915 92ace763-4bc6-4137-8373-7a543e718335 1175-5326 277915 Sysinas pallidipes (Stål) Eccritotarus pallidipes Stål, 1860 : 57 (orig. descrip.). Capsus tibialis Walker, 1873 : 109 (orig. descrip.). Synonymized by Bergroth, 1922 : 16 . Sysinas pallidipes : Reuter, 1907 : 37 (n. comb.); Carvalho, 1955b : 226 (syn. note); Ferreira et al. , 2006 : 10 (distr.). Diagnosis. General color black. Head, scutellum, and hemelytra uniformly black; pronotum uniformly reddish except for black calli; membrane fuscous, with apex translucent or clear. Legs largely yellow, with the tibiae fuscous to black, except at bases. Length 4.70–5.90 mm . Host. Unknown. Distribution. Brazil (Espirito Santo, Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Sul) and Paraguay (Carvalho, 1957; Schuh, 1995; Ferreira et al. , 2006 ). Ferreira et al. (2006) listed S. fulvicollis from Minas Gerais in error. Discussion. Sysinas pallidipes is very similar to S. fulvicollis Fabricius, 1803 , and, at one point, was considered a junior synonym of it ( Carvalho, 1951d ), but later was resurrected as a valid species ( Carvalho, 1955b ). Ferreira et al. (2006) presented the distribution of this species under the name S. fulvipes . Sysinas fulvipes is best distinguished from S. pallidipes by the yellowish pro- and mesotibiae and pale yellow lateral margins of the hemelytra.
