Número enero-marzoThe genus Anacridium was established by Uvarov in 1923
to include three species and one subspecies. Since then, abundant
material of specimens of this genus became available and a more
comprehensive revision can now be undertaken. Such a revision
is greatly neecled because of considerable confusion with regard
to some previously known and common species, arid in order to
include those recently described and new ones. Another reason
for the revision is the actual, or potential, economic importance
of some of the species. The available information on the ecology,
life-histories and habits of Anacridium species includes some
points of general interest and we thought it worth while to
summarise it.Peer reviewe
