Description of the nymphs of Ectemnostega (Ectemnostegella) stridulata (Hungerford 1948) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Corixidae)
The egg and the five nymphal instars of Ectemnostega (Ectemnostegella) stridulata are described and illustrated for the first time, with emphasis on the morphometry and chaetotaxy of selected structures. Comparison with the eggs of E. (Ectemnostegella) montana and E. (Ectemnostegella) peruana, and t...

The egg and the five nymphal instars of Ectemnostega (Ectemnostegella) stridulata are described and illustrated for the first time, with emphasis on the morphometry and chaetotaxy of selected structures.

The egg of E. stridulata has a very short stalk like those of E. montana and E. peruana, and the three species differ in the chorionic structure. The nymphs of Ectemnostega share the presence of one dorsal abdominal scent gland on each of the segments IV-V.
