Genera previously created for species of the genera Leptoglossus Gutrin-Men
eville and Anisoscelis Latreille (Anisoscelini) are given species-group sta
tus. These species groups are keyed, their included species listed with syn
onymies, and their distributions given. Dallacoris Osuna (Leptoscelini) is
a name never published and therefore invalid; its single species is restore
d to the genus Phthia Stal as Phthia picta (Drury). The species groups in L
eptoglosus (and the number of included species) are the dilaticollis specie
s group (3 species), gonagra species group (1), harpagon species group (3),
cinctipes species group (3), lineosus species group (3), and zonatus speci
es group (24).
