03C7663D385EFFDE4D87F946FC4FFE90.taxon	discussion	Remarks: Despite being a very colorful shield bug, there is little or no information on its distribution, biology, ecology, hosts and natural enemies. As for its habits, it is only known to be attracted to lights (Torre-Bueno 1914; Eger et al. 2015 a; present study). In Mexico it has been recorded in the states of Chiapas, Nayarit and Veracruz (Rodríguez 1992). Here we record for the first time its presence in Oaxaca.	en	Guzmán-Vásquez, Héctor M., Martínez-Martínez, Laura (2025): Checklist and bilingual key to the genera of Scutelleridae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) from Mexico, with new distribution records for the state of Oaxaca.

Little is known about its geographic distribution and hosts. This species is widely distributed in Mexico (Table 1). Cervantes-Peredo (2002) provided records from localities in Oaxaca (Chiltepec, Huajuapan de León, Pluma Hidalgo, Miahuatlán, Portillo del Rayo, Puente Nacional, Oaxaca, Tlacolula, Hierve El Agua, and Tultepec).

03C7663D385CFFD04D87FBB5FADCFF74.taxon	discussion	Remarks: Eger (2012) and Eger et al. (2015 a) mentioned S. obliquus for Mexico without giving precise localities. Rodriguez (1992) provided records of S. punctellus (synonymy of S. obliquus) for several states in Mexico, and mentioned the localities of Huajuapan de León, Panatepec and Pinotepa Nacional in Oaxaca. Therefore, here we add the new localities of Macuilxóchilt de Artigas Carranza, Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán, San Andrés Huayapam, and Villa de Zaachila. Also, the association of S. obliquus with Rubus fruticosus (Rosaceae), and Zinnia elegans (Asteraceae) is reported for the first time. In addition, three specimens were attracted to beetle traps (Scarabaeinae) baited with human excrement, so it is inferred that S. obliquus could be a generalist species with both phytophagous and coprophagous habits and possibly even necrophagous since it has also been collected on wilted flowers of Z. elegans with some initial degree of decomposition. However, observations are needed to corroborate its coprophagy and possible necrophagy. These preferences are quite rare in Scutelleridae, since coprophagy has only been reported for the species Solenosthedium liligerum (Thunberg) (Londt & Reavell 1982). Regarding necrophagy, Chérot et al. (1998), reported Chrysocoris fascialis (White) feeding on a decomposing snake. Eger et al. (2015 b) mentioned that they have collected several New World scutellerids with butterfly traps baited with carrion (decomposing fish).	en	Guzmán-Vásquez, Héctor M., Martínez-Martínez, Laura (2025): Checklist and bilingual key to the genera of Scutelleridae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) from Mexico, with new distribution records for the state of Oaxaca.
