Harpactor rhombeus ( Erichson, 1848) View in CoL
Wygodzinsky (1947c) gave a synopsis of the genus Harpactor Laporte, 1833 . H. rhombeus often has waxy secretions over the body, a character not mentioned by Wygodzinsky (1947c). An unidentified reduviid mentioned by Espinel (2000) as a predator of nymphs of Rhammatocerus schistocercoides ( Orthoptera : Acrididae ), a serious occasional pest of the area, probably belongs to this species judging from the photograph of the nymph examined. H. rhombeus has been recorded from Mexico, Guyana and Venezuela ( Stål 1872; Wygodzinsky 1947c; Maldonado 1990). The area in which the specimens listed below were collected is an extensive Colombian savanna called the “Llanos Orientales.” The specimens listed below are a new generic record from Colombia ( Fig. 46 View FIGURES 43 – 51 ).
Material examined: COLOMBIA, 2ɗɗ, 1Ψ, Meta, Pto. Gaitán, Río Yucabo, 200 m, I1975, R. Jaramillo [ UNCB]; 1Ψ, Meta, Remolinos, Centro Cafamllanos, 220 m, 23III 1996 [ MUJ].
