Coreidae is a family of phytophagous hemipterans known as leaf-footed bugs, which can become important pests for various crops. Information on this family in Colombia is scarce, and it is necessary to address its diversity and distribution for adequate management of potential pest species, as well as for the knowledge and conservation of the whole group. To contribute to the knowledge of the family Coreidae in the country, a catalog was carried out based on a review of the bibliography, eleven national biological collections and the citizen science platform iNaturalist. A total of 300 species were found, 115 of which are new records for the country. A key for the genera of Hypselonotini is included, as well as photographs of the habitus of most of the species and distributional maps. Also, a new species of the genus Sundarellus Brailovsky & Barrera from the departments of Guaviare and Meta is described.
缘蝽科是一类植食性半翅目昆虫，被称为叶足蝽，它们可能会成为多种作物的重要害虫。关于哥伦比亚境内这一科昆虫的信息匮乏，有必要研究其多样性和分布情况，以便对潜在害虫物种进行妥善管理，同时也是为了了解和保护整个类群。为了增进对该国缘蝽科的了解，我们通过查阅文献、研究十一个国家生物标本馆以及公民科学平台iNaturalist开展了一次编目工作。总共发现了300个物种，其中115个是该国的新记录。文中包含了一个关于Hypselonotini属的检索表，以及大多数物种的整体照和分布图。此外，还描述了一种来自瓜维亚雷省和梅塔省的新物种——Sundarellus Brailovsky & Barrera属。
