Mesovelia amoena (Uhler, 1894) View in CoL
This mesoveliid water strider is reported from Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and some of the Lesser Antilles, as well as being widespread through the Americas ( de Kort-Gommer and Nieser 1969; Naranjo et al. 2010; Lanigan and Hyslop 2011). We present the first records of this species from the Virgin Islands; it was found on St. Thomas in ghuts, ponds, and mangrove brackish pools and streams, although not as abundant as the following species.
