摘要

This is the eleventh part in a series of papers constituting a Guide to the Aquatic Heteroptera of Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia, and treats the families Naucoridae and Aphelocheirdae in the infraorder Nepomorpha. Keys are provided to the subfamilies and genera of Naucoridae occurring in the region, and to the regional species in the genera Naucoris, Ctenipocoris, Heleocoris, and Aphelocheirus; new distributional records are also provided for many of these species. In the naucorid subfamily Naucorinae, the new species Naucoris minutus is described from Singapore, and Naucoris rhizomatus J. Polhemus is placed in synonymy under Naucoris scutellaris Stal. In the naucorid subfamily Laccocorinae, new distributional records are provided for Ctenipocoris asiaticus; the new species Heleocoris malayensis is described from Peninsular Malaysia; and Laccocoris nervicus and Heleocoris ovatus are found to have been incorrectly recorded from Peninsular Malaysia in previous publications. Colour habitus photos are provided for the two new species described, and line drawings of male and female genitalic structures are provided for all species in these two families known to occur in Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia.
