Background

Water bugs in general play an important role in freshwater ecosystems, and knowledge about them is essential for the study of water biology and the proper management of aquatic habitats. The Neotropical fauna is relatively well known, but the existence of large under-collected areas makes taxonomic and faunistic studies concerning the aquatic and semiaquatic bugs from tropical America urgent.

 New information

Distributional information is presented for thirty-eight species of Gerromorpha and five Nepomorpha, including first records from the Brazilian states of Bahia (Mesovelia amoena), Ceará (Limnogonus profugus and Rhagovelia whitei), Espírito Santo (R. lucida), Goiás (Halobatopsis platensis and R. zela), Mato Grosso (Rheumatobates bonariensis), Pará (Nerthra terrestris), Paraná (H. spiniventris, Hydrometra fruhstorferi and R. janeira), Piauí (Microvelia ayacuchana, M. pulchella, Neogerris lubricus and Platyvelia brachialis), Rio de Janeiro (Martarega bentoi) and São Paulo (Rheumatobates minutus flavidus); and the Peruvian region of Madre de Dios (Rhagovelia fontanalis).

 Aquatic insects new records Neotropical Region Brazil Peru. Foundation for the Scientific and Technological Development in Health (FIOTEC) Introduction

Heteroptera (Insecta: Hemiptera), or true bugs, is the most diverse group of insects with incomplete metamorphosis, with about 38,000 described species (Ribeiro et al. 2014). This suborder comprises seven infraorders, of which Gerromorpha, Nepomorpha and Leptopodomorpha are associated with aquatic habitats (Rafael et al. 2012).

Aquatic Heteroptera can be found in all continents, except Antarctica, and are more diverse in tropical climates. The Neotropical region is the richest in terms of described species, with more than 1,200 distributed in 18 families (Polhemus and Polhemus 2008). Six families, 43 genera and 380 species of Gerromorpha, and ten families, 39 genera and 510 species of Nepomorpha are known from South America, according to the latest published information (Mazzucconi et al. 2009).

The current study presents new data concerning the geographical distribution of Gerromorpha and Nepomorpha from South America, including first species records from several Brazilian states and a Peruvian region.

 Materials and methods

The new information provided is based on material desposited in the Coleção Entomológica Professor José Alfredo Pinheiro Dutra, Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (DZRJ) and the Laboratório de Estudos Subterrâneos, Universidade Federal de São Carlos, São Carlos, Brazil (LES). The known geographical distribution of each species is provided according to Moreira (2015). New records are followed by an exclamation mark. Abbreviations of Brazilian states follow the official standard (IBGE 2015).

 Discussion

Some of the records above form the first inventory of aquatic Heteroptera from Pedra Branca State Park, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Cordeiro 2015). No water bugs had been previously recorded from the area, and the following species have been collected in four rivers inside the park: Brachymetra albinervis albinervis, B. furva, Rhagovelia itatiaiana, R. lucida, R. macta, Limnocoris insignis, Enitharoides brasiliensis, and Martarega bentoi. Among the records from this park, the occurrence of two species pairs is very interesting: B. albinervis albinervis / B. furva and R. itatiaiana / R. macta. Each pair of species are morphologically very similar, differing mainly in structures exclusive to males, which may lead to misidentifications (e.g. R. macta in Moreira and Ribeiro 2009), especially because they might co-occur in their geographical ranges.

Additional material collected in other Brazilian national or state parks was also examined and resulted in several first records of aquatic Heteroptera from each park. These include: Halobatopsis platensis, Hydrometra fruhstorferi and Rhagovelia janeira from Iguaçu National Park, Limnogonus profugus and R. whitei from Ubajara National Park, and Neogerris lubricus, Microvelia ayacuchana, M. pulchella and Platyvelia brachialis from Sete Cidades National Park. The exceptions are Rheumatobates minutus flavidus and Microvelia venustatis from Serra do Mar State Park, and Rhagovelia accedens, R. aiuruoca and R. triangula from Caparaó National Park, areas where other species of Gerromorpha and Nepomorpha had already been recorded (e.g. Moreira et al. 2010, Moreira and Barbosa 2011). Such efforts are useful to expand the parks’ lists of species, which is important to reinforce their value as conservation areas.

Some of the records also serve to fill gaps on the known geographical distributions of species that occur throughout wide geographical ranges, but had never been collected in some areas within it. That is the case of Halobatopsis platensis and Martarega bentoi, known from northeastern Brazil to Argentina, but new respectively to Goiás and Rio de Janeiro; Halobatopsis spiniventris, Hydrometra fruhstorferi and Rhagovelia janeira, from southeastern Brazil to Argentina, but new to Paraná; Neogerris lubricus, common throughout South America, new to Piauí; Rheumatobates minutus flavidus, from Costa Rica to Argentina, new to São Paulo; Mesovelia amoena, Microvelia pulchella and Platyvelia brachialis, from North America to Argentina, new to Bahia and Piauí; Rhagovelia whitei, from northern Brazil to Paraguay, new to Ceará; and Nerthra terrestris, from Colombia to southeastern Brazil, new to Pará. Finally, distribution expansions include northernmost records of Limnogonus profugus, Rhagovelia lucida and R. zela (Ceará/ Espírito Santo/ Goiás), the first record of Rheumatobates bonariensis from central-western Brazil (Mato Grosso), and the first record of Microvelia ayacuchana from northeastern Brazil (Piauí).
