LASIOCHILINI Carayon, 1972a View in CoL

Type-genus: Lasiochilus Reuter, 1871 View in CoL

DIAGNOSTIC CHARACTERS: The Lasiochilini are characterized by the morphology of left paramere, short to medium-sized and curved but never strongly curved; right paramere vestigial or sometimes present ( Lasiocolpus ) but very short and non-functional. A structure of 8–10 short, thick copulatory teeth present on dorsal and apical left margin of sixth sternite, sometimes also on seventh ( Eusolenophora ), or absent ( Anaelia ). Ostiolar peritreme curved backward; metapleura with mushroom processus elongated and parallel-sided. Sexual dimorphism of legs: males with widened fore-femora, fore-tibiae with a row of teeth or spines on the inner margin and well-developed pads (but not as Xylocoris ). Females (in Lasiochilus and some Lasiocolpus ) sometimes with seventh sternite punctured centrally; these punctures of an unknown function.

DISTRIBUTION: Pantropical.

DISCUSSION: The set of genera that make up this tribe, present a series of characters that differ from those of Plochiocorini n. tr.: Forelegs of males thick and commonly armed with teeth or spines, left paramere not strongly curved, ostiolar peritreme curved backward, without marked sexual dimorphism.
