Abstract

Malaise traps were used to collect 126 specimens of coccinellids from 21 wheat fields in Sonora, Mexico, from January to May 2022. Nine species were identified, and to our knowledge, these are the first records of these coccinellids in wheat throughout the world: Stethorus pinachi Gordon and Chapin, Scymnus (Pullus) loewii Mulsant, Psyllobora renifer Casey, and Delphastus pusillus (LeConte). Coccinella septempunctata L., Cycloneda sanguinea sanguinea (L.), P. renifer, Coleomegilla maculata lengi Timberlake, S. pinachi, S. (P.) loewii, and D. pusillus are first records in Sonora. Images of the species identified, the abundances of those collected, and published information on the wheat pests that they prey on are reported.
