There is much information regarding the association of Psocoptera and coffee as stored grain pests and little is known about their presence in coffee plants. We conducted a survey in a coffee plantation of Coffea canephora in the municipality of Candeias do Jamari, Rondônia state, Brazil, where we obtained the first record of a coffee plant as a host of Psocoptera in the Brazilian Amazon region, and the first record of a representative of the family Archipsocidae (Archipsocus lenkoi) for the state of Rondônia. The psocid population was concentrated and not evenly distributed over the survey area, which indicates an irregular distribution pattern. We have not detected damage or injury to the coffee plants and therefore we cannot consider these psocids as a pest in the coffee plantation.(AU)
Há muita informação sobre a associação de Psocoptera e café como peste em grãos armazenados, mas pouco se sabe sobre sua presença nas plantas do café. Nós realizamos uma amostragem em uma plantação de café de Coffea canephora no município de Candeias do Jamari, Rondônia, onde obtivemos o primeiro registro de uma planta de café como hospedeira de Psocoptera na Amazônia brasileira e o primeiro registro de um representante da família Archipsocidae (Archipsocus lenkoi) para o estado de Rondônia. A população de psocídeos estava concentrada e não distribuída uniformemente na área de amostragem, o que indica um padrão de distribuição irregular. Não detectamos danos ou injúrias nas plantas de café e, portanto, não podemos considerar esses psocídeos como uma praga na plantação de café.(AU)

Abstract Here it is shown that Loneura crenataNavás, 1927 and Loneura ocotensis García Aldrete are distinct species, so the previously proposed synonymy of the latter with the first is not valid. Illustrations of the L. crenata holotype, deposited in the Hamburg University Zoological Museum, are here presented for the first time.
