Hermanlentia n. gen. of Tribe Triatomini, with a List of Species
of Triatominae (Hemiptera, Reduviidae) - Hermanlentia n. gen. was
established in the tribe Triatomini, based on differences of external
morphology, phallic structures and chromatic characters of Triatoma
matsunoi Fernandez-Loayza 1989, in relation to other species of
Triatoma. The head is long with disproportionally small eyes 1:0,16;
the relation of the head and the pronotum is 1: 0,4; and the coloration of
the hemelytron is whitish. Characters of the male genitalia that
distinguish the new genus are the articulatory apparatus with twice the
size of the aedeagus, phallosoma with fingerlike apex, 1 + 1 dorsal
conjuntive processes with the inner edge toothed, and absence of endosoma
process and vesica.
