Two oriine flower bug (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Anthocoridae) genera, Bilia Distant, 1904 and Wollastoniella Reuter, 1884 are reported from Myanmar for the first time, diagnosed, and discussed. A new species, Bilia burma Yasunaga & Yamada sp. nov., is described, with information on the immature form, habitat and assumed prey; its closest sister species, B. castanea (Carvalho, 1951), is also re-diagnosed. Wollastoniella rotunda Yasunaga & Miyamoto, 1993 originally described from northern Thailand, is also documented along with its immature form and new host association. Both of the anthocorids found in Myanmar co-occurred with lace bugs (Tingidae). A checklist of all current members of Bilia and Wollastoniella is provided. The phylogenic positions of Bilia and Wollastoniella in the tribe Oriini is discussed.
首次报道、诊断并讨论了来自缅甸的两个原花蝽属(半翅目:异翅亚目:花蝽科),即1904年的Bilia Distant属和1884年的Wollastoniella Reuter属。描述了一个新物种,即缅甸Bilia burma Yasunaga & Yamada新种,并提供了其未成熟形态、栖息地和假定猎物的信息;还对其最亲近的姊妹物种,即栗色Bilia(Carvalho,1951)进行了重新诊断。1993年最初描述于泰国北部的圆形Wollastoniella Yasunaga & Miyamoto,也记录了其未成熟形态和新的寄主关联。在缅甸发现的这两种花蝽均与网蝽(网蝽科)共生。提供了Bilia属和Wollastoniella属所有现有成员的名录。讨论了Bilia属和Wollastoniella属在原花蝽族中的系统发育位置。
