Dalader

Dalader is a genus of coreid bugs from Asia, chiefly Southeast Asia. The genus name is derived from the Sanskrit roots dal meaning leaf and dhru which means bearer.[1] This plant bug genus is distinguished by the which preterminal antennal segment being flattened, pear-shaped, and ridged and the terminal segment being paler. Chalcidoid egg parasites have been recorded from this species.[3] Adults of Dalader acuticosta are fried and eaten in northeastern India.[4][5]
