Tribe HALYINI. 



The species of this tribe have the head elongate; rostrum 

 extending beyond hind coxae ; the third segment much longer than 

 the fourth, the second vertically compressed ; antennae inserted at 

 a considerable distance in front of the eyes ; abdomen ventrally 

 sulcate. A single genus, differing from all other Pentatomids in 

 having a jugal tooth, occurs within our limits.
