Zelus longipes is an assassin bug (Reduviidae) that is a member of the harpactorinae subfamily. Its distribution ranges include southern North America, Central America, and South America (except Chile),〔Hart, E. R., 1986: Genus ''Zelus'' Fabricius in the United States, Canada, and Northern Mexico (Hemiptera: Reduviidae). Ann. Entomol. Soc. Am. 79, 535–548〕 especially in agroecosystems in Brazil. ''Z. longipes'' has been considered as a potential biocontrol agent, as it prefers caterpillars of ''Spodoptera frugiperda'', which is a moth that is a pest in cornfields.〔Sparks, A. N., 1979: A review of the biology of the fall armyworm. Fla. Entomol. 62, 82–87〕 ''Z. longipes'' prefers smaller caterpillars, probably because there is less risk of injury while subduing smaller prey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 author = R. Cogni, A. V. L. Freitas and B. F.
