First report of Ricollapallidinends and Rocconota tuberculigera (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Harpactorinae) predatory Oebalus insularis (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in natural reserves of Darien, Panama
For the first time, Ricolla pallidinervis (Stål, 1859) and Rocconota tuberculigera (Stål, 1862) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) were registered feeding on adults of Oebalus insularis (Stål, 1872) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in the buffer area of Darien National Park, Darien Province, Panama. Adults and nymphs of O. insularis are considered one of the main pests in rice crops in Panama. This study highlights the role of protected areas as environmental services that serve as natural reservoirs for reported Harpactorinae species.
