Most of the associations reported involve Proteobacteria. Despite the fact that Actinobacteria associated with insects were shown to produce antibiotic barriers against pathogens to the hosts or to their food and nutrients, there are few studies focusing on their association with insects. Thus, we surveyed the Actinobacteria diversity on a specific region of the midgut of seven species of stinkbugs (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) known to carry a diversity of symbiotically-associated Proteobacteria.  aActinobacteria  aBiodiversity  aPentatomidae  aSymbiosis  aBactéria  aPercevejo  aSiombiose1 aPRADO, S. de S.1 aCÔNSOLI, F.
