An Asian species of Bruchinae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) developing in the seeds of Gleditsia triacanthos L. (Caesalpiniaceae) in Argentina

Gleditsia triacanthos L. (Caesalpiniaceae), introduced from USA into Argentina in the first half of the twentieth century, is a vigorous invader in lowland areas near water courses. The seeds of this species are predated by Bruchidius endotubercularis Arora, 1980 (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchina...
