Abstract. Numerous generic level nomenclatural problems in the Pentatomoidea (Het-
eroptera) are discussed and corrected. These corrections have necessitated twelve generic
replacement names: Cachanocoris for Sambirania Cachan 1952; Grassatoraina for Gras-
sator Ruckes 1965;Jaynia for Mehmociyptus Linnavuori 1982; Kitsoniocoris forKitsonia
Gross 1975; Nkolbissonicoris for Nkolbissonia Linnavuori 1982; Platistocoris for Platis-
tiis Herrich-Schiiffer 1853; Qadrianocoris for Qadricma Ahmad and Rana 1987; Rucke-
siocoris for Seleuochilus Ruckes 1964; Schraderiellus for Schraderia Ruckes 1959; Sean-
sonius for Kuightiella Ahmad and Khan 1980; Stevesonius for Phyllocoris Jeannel 1913;
and Zhengius for Tibetocoris Zheng and Liu 1987. Nineteen new combinations are
recognized: Cachanocoris obsciiriis (Cachan), Grassatorama ni,i>roveiitris (Ruckes), G.
reticidatus (Ruckes), G. sinuatus (Ruckes), Jayma ajfinis (Schouteden), J. fimebris
(Schouteden), J. porosa (Stal), Kitsoniocoris rubrocoriosa (Gross), Nkolbissonicoris ru-
bescens (Linnavuori), Platistocoris spiniceps (Herrich-Schiiffer), Qadrianocoris pishee-
nensis (Ahmad and Rana), Ruckesiocoris nitidiis (Ruckes), Schraderiellus cinctiis (Ruck-
es), 5. hiighesae (Ruckes), Seansoniiisjiavifrons (Distant), Stevesonius acutus (Jeannel),
S. jeanneli (Schouteden), Zhengius spiniferus (Zheng and Liu), and Z. zhangmuensis
(Zhang and Lin). Three new generic synonyms also are proposed: Dichelops (Neodi-
chelops) Grazia 1978 as a junior synonym of D. (Diceraeus) Dallas 1851; Keriahana
Distant 1918 as a junior synonym of Neostrachia Saunders 1877; and Acanthidiellum
Kirkaldy 1904 as a junior synonym of Polycarmes Stal 1867.
