Nabidea coracina Uhler, 1878: 398 [n.sp., syn. by Uhler, 1887: 230] Trachelomiris meilleurii Van Duzee, 1887: 70 [catalog] Diagnosis. Recognized by the dark coloration (Fig. 8), yellow V-shaped spot on head, antenna with semi-erect short spines and the endosoma with long sclerite elongated (Fig. 44), medial left sclerite semicircular covered by short trichia (Fig. 44), and ventral right sclerite fusiform (Fig. 52). Redescription. Male: COLORATION: Black, with gray areas. Head: Black, with transversal pale spot Vshaped posterior to longitudinal sulcus; eye pale brown; mandibular plate, maxillary plate and apex of buccula, black; labium brown with black apex; clypeus black; antennal segments dark brown, segment I pale. Thorax: Pronotum and collar black; longitudinal line in inner region of calli, pale; two rounded black spots on humeral angles; proepisternum black with a yellow pale line on margin; scutellum black. Hemelytra brown with dark spot on clavus, irregular dark patches in median region; embolium and external region of cuneus pale; internal and median margins of cuneus and hemelytral membrane, brown; ostiolar peritreme with pale brown margins; abdomen with yellowish median spots and black spot at apex of pygophore. VESTITURE AND STRUCTURE: Head: Antenna with short semi-erect short spines; segment I slightly thickened, 1.3 times width of head (Table 1), segment II 5 times longer than I (Table 1). Pronotum: Clearly divided in two areas or lobes by a lateral constriction and a dorsal transversal shallow sulcus; with golden sparse and erect pilosity. MEASUREMENTS: Table 1. GENITALIA: Pygophore: Elongated with apex slightly rounded with a left projected lateroposterior margin (Fig. 19). Parameres: Left paramere sickle-shape ending in lateral tip with dorsal margin of basal sensory lobe almost straight and ventral margin of basal sensory lobe clearly convex; hypophysis with a sharp lateral projection (Fig. 31); right paramere as in Fig. 31. Endosoma: With long sclerite strongly tapered towards apex and microtrichia in basal and medial region (Fig. 44); medial left sclerite semicircular with microtrichia on surface (Fig. 44); ribbon like sclerite with short lobe or area beneath secondary gonopore covered with small trichia (Fig. 44), ventral right sclerite fusiform with trichia on surface (Fig. 52). Female: Similar in structure and coloration to male, but larger and slightly robust and abdomen is pale brown. MEASUREMENTS: Table 1. GENITALIA: First gonapophysis: With broad apical grooved region (Fig. 65). Second gonapophysis: As in Fig. 75. Dorsal labiate plate with small sclerite caudal to sclerotized rings (Fig. 87). Posterior wall with rounded interramal lobes (Fig. 99). Dorsal structure small and medial process arrow-like (Fig. 99). Geographic distribution. Nearctic, Canada and United States (Fig. 108) (Schwartz 2008). Plant associations. Poaceae (Calamagostris canadensis) (Carvalho & Fontes 1981, Schuh 2002–2014). New records: Asteraceae (Solidago canadensis), Poaceae (Achnatherum), Rosaceae (Rubus) and Cyperaceae (Carex). Discussion. This species resembles Collaria villiersi by black coloration, but differs by antennal segments with short semi-erect spines, hemelytra brownish with a dark spot, and genitalia of male and female.
