Florida Entomologist, Lutz, Flórida, v. 100, n. 4, p. 823-825, 2017. Disponível em: https://journals.flvc.org/flaent/article/view/93325.

Adults were collected in rice fields in Goianira, Goiás, Brazil. The number of eggs per egg mass ranged from 6 to 20, with a mean of 11.8 ± 0.8. The egg to adult developmental time was 33.2 d. Adult longevity ranged from 16 to 46 d. The pre-oviposition, oviposition, and post-oviposition periods were 7.0, 22.3, and 6.3 d, respectively. Fertility was 82.3%. Cyptocephala alvarengai presents biological similarities to other stink bugs that feed on rice panicles, and has potential as a rice pest.engAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/HeteropteraPentatomidaeHemipteraRice pestArroz pragaArtigo
