Abstract
- Ecological niche modelling and first records from Namibia and Zimbabwe validate the amphi-equatorial distribution of Byrsinus pseudosyriacus (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Cydnidae) The genus I Byrsinus i Fieber, 1860 belongs to the tribe Geotomini in the subfamily Cydninae of the family Cydnidae (sensu Pluot-Sigwalt & Lis, 2008; and Lis et al., 2017). Moreover, the distance of the new localities in Namibia and Zimbabwe to the Equator is almost the same as the Equator's distance to the species northernmost site. At present, 26 species are classified within Byrsinus (Dusoulier & Lupoli, 2015; Lis, 1999, 2001, 2003) including a single Oriental species, four representatives in the Australian Region, 17 species in the Palearctic and four Afrotropical species, namely I B i .
