Falcon-Brindis A, Villanueva RT (2024). Checklist and key to species of stink bugs (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Pentatomidae) of Kentucky, United States of America. ZooKeys 1213: 75-93.

Abstract

Stink bugs (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) have received a lot of attention as there are many economically important pest species. However, the status of species richness, distribution, and taxonomy remain overlooked and outdated in Kentucky (USA). Having such information at a regional scale is crucial to allow the development of suitable pest management and conservation programs.

For several years past 1 have been making special efforts to increase my collection of Pentatomids from all parts of the world. Of the species thus far recorded from America north of Mexico, I have been able to secure examples of all but a few, and some of those still wanting in my collection may yet prove to be synonyms of other better known forms.

Abstract

The species composition and abundance of stink bugs (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) in corn, Zea mays L., was determined in this on-farm study in Georgia. Seven species of phytophagous stink bugs were found on corn with the predominant species being Nezara viridula (L.) and Euschistus servus (Say). All developmental stages of these two pests were found, indicating they were developing on the corn crop.
