Authors: Péter Kóbor

Abstract: The geocorine (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Lygaeoidea: Geocoridae) true bug genus Umbrageocoris Kóbor, 2019 is redefined based on new morphological information from newly acquired specimens. Two new species are described: U. boonei sp. nov. from continental Indomalaya and U. malipatili sp. nov. from Australia; two new combinations are proposed: U. elegantulus (Distant, 1904), comb. nov., and U. woodwardi (Malipatil, 1994), comb. nov. (both transferred from Geocoris Fallén, 1814). Keys, diagnoses, and distribution data to the discussed species are provided. Hypotheses on the origin of Umbrageocoris and its relationship to other geocorine genera in the region are formulated. New country records: U. elegantulus (Papua New Guinea), U. maai maai (Thailand, Laos) and U. woodwardi (Papua New Guinea).
