Abstract

The Tingidae Laporte, 1832 is a family of small Hemiptera that are commonly referred to as lacebugs because the pronotum and fore wings of the adult have a delicate and intricate network of divided areas that resemble lace; they are considered as the sister group of Miridae (Schuh & Stys, 1991; Schuh et al., 2009). Tingidae are distributed worldwide with about 2,500 described species (Guilbert et al., 2014). They live on plants and are strictly phytophagous (sap-suckers).
