First record of the family Piesmatidae Amyot and Serville, 1843 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Lygaeoidea) from Colombia

Piesmatidae Amyot and Serville, are relatively small phytophagous hemipterans (less than 5 mm) with a wide world distribution. We record for the first time the family for Colombia, with the species Parapiesma cinereum (Say). The specimens were collected in Sincelejo – Sucre (Caribbean coast) on plants of the family Amaranthaceae.
