Checklist of the New Zealand Heteroptera (Insecta: Hemiptera): an update based on the 2004 to 2013 literature.

ABSTRACT

An updated checklist of the New Zealand Heteroptera (Insecta Hemiptera) is provided as a supplement to the "Heteroptera (Insecta Hemiptera) catalogue" of Larivière and Larochelle (2004 Fauna of New Zealand 50). A total of 142 genera and 319 species belonging to 28 families are recorded for New Zealand. Changes to the 2004 catalogue are documented. The synonymy and primary type information of taxa described between 2004 and July 2013 are also given. The presence of the anthocorid Macrotrachelia nigronitens in New Zealand is confirmed.
