Notes on synonymy, nomenclature, and distribution of some Palaearctic Coreoidea and Pentatomoidea (Heteroptera)

I.M. Kerzhner

Abstract. The paper includes designations of type species for two nominal genera, lectotype designations for 7 nominal species, new records, new synonymy, and some other notes on nomenclature and distribution. The following new synonymies are established: RHOPALIDAE: Leptocoris rufus Hahn, 1833, sp. dist. (not syn. of L. abdominalis (Fabricius, 1803)) = L. isolatus (Distant, 1914); Rhopalus distinctus (Signoret, 1859) = Rh. albicarinus Liu & Nonnaizab, 1988; ACANTHOSOMATIDAE: Cyphostethus tristriatus (Fabricius, 1787) = C. minitristriatus Ahmad & Önder, 1993 = C. pallidus Ahmad & Önder, 1993; Acanthosoma denticaudum Jakovlev, 1880 = A. d. japonica Jensen-Haarup, 1931; SCUTELLERIDAE: Odontoscelis hispanica Göllner-Scheiding, 1987 = ? O. fuliginosa var. dorsata Kirkaldy, 1909; Phimodera humeralis (Dalman, 1823) = Ph. hispanica Fuente, 1971; Eurygaster integriceps Puton, 1881, nomen protectum = E. cognatus Westwood, 1837 = E. orientalis Westwood, 1837; E. testudinaria testudinaria (Geoffroy, 1785) = E. sodalis Horváth, 1895.
