Resumen
La familia Naucoridae posee a nivel mundial cerca de 392 especies distribuidas en 37 géneros y es una de las 15 familias de chinches acuáticas y semiacuáticas que ocurren en Costa Rica. En el continente americano se registran cuatro subfamilias: Limnocorinae, Laccocorinae, Cryphocricinae y Naucorinae. En Costa Rica así como en los demás países centroamericanos casi no se han hecho estudios taxonómicos ni biológicos de esta familia. Lo que este estudio pretende es determinar la diversidad y distribución de los chinches naucóridos en Costa Rica.

In Costa Rica, as well as in other Central American countries, almost no taxonomic or biological studies have been done on this family. What this study aims to determine is the diversity and distribution of naucorid bugs in Costa Rica.
