Holhymenia is a genus in the "true bug" family Coreidae, order Hemiptera. The genus was erected by Amédée Louis Michel Lepeletier and Jean Guillaume Audinet-Serville in 1825. The name is frequently misspelled as "Holymenia", due to an unjustified emendation by Hermann Burmeister ten years after the name was originally published.[1]
Many species of Holhymenia feed on the fruits of Passiflora spp, and several are considered pests of commercial passion fruit production.
