Abstract

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Dellapé, Pablo M., Melo, María C. (2026): Three new species of Dushinckanus Brailovsky (Heteroptera, Rhyparochromidae, Myodochini), description of the male of D. camelopardus Harrington, and new distributional records for known species. Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift 73 (1): 1-11, DOI: 10.3897/dez.73.164078AbstractIn this contribution, the diagnostic characters of the myodochine genus Dushinckanus Brailovsky, 1979 are discussed. The male of D. camelopardus Harrington, 1987 is described for the first time, and its distribution is extended north to French Guiana, as is that of D. ashlocki Harring, 1987. Additionally, three new species from French Guiana are described. Dorsal habitus and male genitalic photographs are provided and an updated key to separate the species in the genus is given.
