Beharus cylindripes (Fabricius, 1803)
|
Beharus is a monotypic genus of assassin bugs belonging to the family Reduviidae. Its one described species, B. cylindripes, is found in South America, though not restricted to the Amazon basin.[1]
The species seems to be associated with Ponerobia bipustulata and Amauroclopius ornatus as all three were found on the same tree (Prioria copaifera).[1]
