This paper presents a taxonomic revision of 28 described species of the genus Sirthenea Spinola, 1837 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae: Peiratinae) distributed in the Afrotropical, Oriental, Palearctic, Oceanian and Australian zoogeographical regions. The following new synonymies are proposed: Sirthenea africana Distant, 1903 = S. rapax Horváth, 1909, syn. nov. = S. leonina Horváth, 1909, syn. nov. = S. bequaerti Schouteden, 1913, syn. nov. = S. leontovitchi Schouteden, 1931, syn. nov.; Sirthenea picescens Reuter, 1887 = S. atrocyanea Horváth, 1909, syn. nov.; S. rodhaini Schouteden, 1913 = S. collarti Schouteden, 1931, syn. nov. = S. angolana Villiers, 1958, syn. nov.; S. flavipes (Stål, 1855) = S. clavata Miller, 1948, syn. nov. = S. bharati Sucheta Chopra, 1988, syn. nov. = S. koreana Kerzhner Lee, 1996 syn. nov. = S. melanota Cai Lu, 1990, syn. nov. = S. nigripes Murugan Livingstone, 1990, syn. nov.; S. obscura (Stål, 1866) = S. glabra (Walker, 1873), syn. nov. A neotype is designated for S. picescens Reuter, 1887. Three species, S. erythromelas (Walker 1873), S. fulvipennis (Walker, 1873) and S. sobria (Walker, 1873), are excluded from the genus Sirthenea. Two new species from the Oriental Region, S. kali sp. nov. (India) and S. setosa sp. nov. (Malaysia) are described. Identification keys are provided for the subgenera and species from each zoogeographical region treated. Drawings of dorsal habitus and genitalic structures, drawings and images of selected morphological characters, and distribution maps of all valid species are presented.
本文对分布于非洲热带、东洋、古北、大洋洲和澳大利亚动物地理区域的28种已描述的斯氏猎蝽属（Sirthenea Spinola，1837）（半翅目：异翅亚目：猎蝽科：佩拉猎蝽亚科）物种进行了分类修订。提出了以下新的同物异名：非洲斯氏猎蝽（Sirthenea africana Distant，1903）= 掠食斯氏猎蝽（S. rapax Horváth，1909），新同物异名 = 狮形斯氏猎蝽（S. leonina Horváth，1909），新同物异名 = 贝氏斯氏猎蝽（S. bequaerti Schouteden，1913），新同物异名 = 列昂托维奇斯氏猎蝽（S. leontovitchi Schouteden，1931），新同物异名；黑褐斯氏猎蝽（Sirthenea picescens Reuter，1887）= 深蓝斯氏猎蝽（S. atrocyanea Horváth，1909），新同物异名；罗德汉斯氏猎蝽（S. rodhaini Schouteden，1913）= 科拉尔氏猎蝽（S. collarti Schouteden，1931），新同物异名 = 安哥拉猎蝽（S. angolana Villiers，1958），新同物异名；黄足斯氏猎蝽（S. flavipes (Stål，1855)）= 棒状斯氏猎蝽（S. clavata Miller，1948），新同物异名 = 巴拉蒂氏猎蝽（S. bharati Sucheta Chopra，1988），新同物异名 = 韩国斯氏猎蝽（S. koreana Kerzhner Lee，1996）新同物异名 = 黑腹黑足斯氏猎蝽（S. melanota Cai Lu，1990），新同物异名 = 黑足斯氏猎蝽（S. nigripes Murugan Livingstone，1990），新同物异名；暗黑斯氏猎蝽（S. obscura (Stål，1866)）= 光滑斯氏猎蝽（S. glabra (Walker，1873)），新同物异名。为黑褐斯氏猎蝽（Sirthenea picescens Reuter，1887）指定了新模。三种物种，红黑斯氏猎蝽（S. erythromelas (Walker 1873)）、黄翅斯氏猎蝽（S. fulvipennis (Walker，1873)）和温和斯氏猎蝽（S. sobria (Walker，1873)），被排除出斯氏猎蝽属。描述了东洋区的两个新物种，卡利斯氏猎蝽（S. kali sp. nov.）（印度）和刚毛斯氏猎蝽（S. setosa sp. nov.）（马来西亚）。提供了各动物地理区域的亚属和物种的检索表。给出了背观成虫形态和生殖器结构的绘图、选定形态特征的绘图和图像，以及所有有效物种的分布图。
