Eysarcoris is a genus of shield bugs belonging to the family Pentatomidae, subfamily Pentatominae, and typical of the tribe Eysarcorini.

Description

Stink bugs of this genus are relatively small (

Eysarcoris belongs to a group of stink bugs (also including Sepontia, Spermatodes and Stagonomus) which have a broad scutellum and an auriculate/spine-like process anterior to the scent gland opening, and do not have a median sulcus in the thoracic sterna.

Ecology

Eysarcoris are herbivores that live on various plants.

Some Eysarcoris are plant pests: E. guttiger is a pest of soybean and sesame, while E. trimaculatus and E. ventralis are pests of rice.

Research

The mitochondrial genomes of various Eysarcoris species have been sequenced.
