The fifth instar nymphs of this species and of Thaumastocoris petilus Drake and Slater are described and compared with each other and with nymphs of other thaumastocorids. The taxonomic and phylogenetic significance of nymphal and adult characters of Thaumastocorinae and Xylastodorinae are considered. The feeding habits of thaumastocorids are discussed.Read More
