Descripción
Sumario:[EN] The presence of Aphelocheirus aestivalis (Fabricius, 1794) (Hemiptera: Aphelocheiridae) in the Iberian Peninsula has been on the spot in the last decades. New records collected in northern inner plateau (Riaza River, Duero Basin) provide new insights about the presence of this species in the Iberian Peninsula. Morphological and molecular analyses confirmed the presence of A. aestivalis. Moreover, male and female genital structures and habitus illustrations are provided. As a whole, our results highlight the complex scenario of Aphelocheirus species in the Iberian Peninsula, involving three currently valid species (two of them very similar based on morphological studies) plus a cryptic undescribed lineage
