Abstract

Two species of lyctocorine flower bug that inhabit subtropical islands of Japan are described as new: Scoloposcelis albodecussata sp. nov., from the Ryukyus, and S.boninensis sp. nov., from the Ogasawaras (Bonin Islands). A key is presented to distinguish the four species of Scoloposcelis known to occur in Japan.
