Abstract

The plant bug genus Eurystylus Stål is taxonomically reviewed in Vietnam. Five species are recognized including one new species, Eurystylus yasunagai sp. nov. and a new record for the country, E. sauteri. Detailed morphological descriptions and diagnostic figures are provided for all species. An identification key to the Vietnamese fauna is also presented.
