Diagnosis.

Omoplax desecta is recognized among the other Omoplax species based on a combination of the following characteristics: rostrum reaching posterior margin of metasternum (Fig. 11 B ); pronotal disc pale brown (Figs 3 B , 4 B , 5 B , 6 B ); hood more than 0.5 times as wide as maximum width of head across compound eyes, not reaching apex of clypeus (Fig. 14 B ); paranotum without areolae in middle part, with areolae in remaining parts; anterior margin of hemelytron weakly curved downward in apical half (Figs 7 B , 8 B , 9 B , 10 B ); subcostal and discoidal areas of hemelytron not united; costal area narrower than combined width of subcostal and discoidal areas; Sc (subcosta) vein of hemelytron distinct in apical part of dorsal view; R + M (fused radius and media) vein of hemelytron indistinct, not carinate; and ventral surface of body in various shades of brown (Figs 12 B , 13 B ).

Remarks.

In general appearance, Omoplax desecta is very similar to O. majorcarinae , whose distribution range is consistent with that of O. desecta in Chichijima Group ( Guilbert 2001; Souma and Kamitani 2021; Souma 2022 a); however, the former can be distinguished from the latter based on the following five main characters (Figs 3 B, G , 4 B, G , 5 B, G , 6 B, G , 7 B, G , 8 B, G , 9 B, G , 10 B, G , 11 B, G , 14 B, G ): rostrum reaching posterior margin of metasternum (reaching middle part of mesosternum in O. majorcarinae ); anterior margin of hemelytron weakly curved downward in apical half (strongly curved downward in apical half in O. majorcarinae ); subcostal and discoidal areas of hemelytron not united (united in O. majorcarinae ); Sc (subcosta) vein of hemelytron distinct in apical part of dorsal view (indistinct in apical part of dorsal view in O. majorcarinae ); and R + M (fused radius and media) vein of hemelytron distinct, carinate (indistinct, not carinate in O. majorcarinae ). Morphological differences between O. desecta and the five other Omoplax species are presented in the identification key below.

Distribution.

Japan: Ogasawara Islands: Chichijima Group (Anijima Island, Chichijima Island, Nishijima Island, Ototojima Island), Hahajima Group (Hahajima Island, Meijima Island, Mukohjima Island), Mukojima Group (Nakodojima Island) (Fig. 18 ) ( Government of Japan 2010; Souma and Kamitani 2021; Souma 2022 a; Shimamoto and Ishikawa 2023). Omoplax desecta is endemic to the Ogasawara Islands.

Host plant.

Rhaphiolepis indica var. tashiroi ( Rosaceae ) (Fig. 17 C ) and Calophyllum inophyllum ( Clusiaceae ) (Fig. 17 D ), also known as “ Shimasharinbai ” and “ Terihaboku ”, respectively, were confirmed as host plants for Omoplax desecta by the field and captive observations of adults and nymphs, suggesting the possibility of polyphagy for this lace bug species. However, no feeding behavior of O. desecta was observed on Ardisia sp. ( Primulaceae ), Bischofia javanica Blume ( Phyllanthaceae ), Cinnamomum sp. ( Lauraceae ), Ligustrum sp. ( Oleaceae ), and Terminalia sp. ( Combretaceae ), from which only a few adults were collected in previous studies (cf. Yasunaga et al. 1993; Guilbert 2001; Yamada and Tomokuni 2012). Therefore, these five tree species do not appear to be host plants for this lace bug species.

Bionomics.

Omoplax desecta inhabits an evergreen broad-leaved forest with a subtropical climate in the Ogasawara Islands ( Souma and Kamitani 2021), and sucks sap on the abaxial side of the leaves of Rhaphiolepis indica var. tashiroi and Calophyllum inophyllum , causing irregular yellowing on the adaxial side (Fig. 17 C, D ). Adults were collected in all seasons ( Drake 1956; Nishimura and Arai 1989; Yasunaga et al. 1993; Tomokuni 1994; Miyano 1998; Guilbert 2001; Souma and Kamitani 2021; Souma 2022 a); nymphs were collected in March, April, and October. In Anijima Island, O. desecta has been confirmed in the stomach contents of the invasive green anole, Anolis carolinensis ( Squamata, Dactyloidae ) ( Takahashi et al. 2014).
