We follow this criterion and use the terminologyused by Estévez and Polhemus for species descriptions. The Belostoma plebejum group includes seven smallspecies with the ventral diverticulum of male genitalia recurved ventrad: Belostoma lariversi De Carlo, 1969;B. micantulum (Stål, 1858); B. plebejum (Stål, 1858); B. pygmeum (Dufour, 1863); B. minusculum (Uhler, 1884).B. parvum sp. nov. from Venezuela, Colombia, Guyana, Suriname and Brazil, and B. nicaeum sp. nov. fromManaus, Brazil.
