Bactrodes multiannulatus Berg, 1884 View in CoL , p. 112

Material studied: Typus. ARGENTINA: Buenos Aires, Ramos Mejía (34°36’S 58°23’W), Aguirre col. ( MACN).

Distribution: ARGENTINA.

Observations: This specimen is much destroyed and the abdomen is collapsed. The presence of long hairs all over the body, the absence of ocelli, and the short hemelytra make us think that it could be a nymph, although according to Berg's description it has ocelli. The legs show a different color pattern from the rest of the species; they are light brown with dark brown stripes. The legs of the B. spinulosus nymph are light brown, as well as the adult.
