Resumen

The flat bug family Aradidae is represented in Costa Rica by 12 genera and 22 species. Of these only one species Neoproxius costariquensis (Kormilev, 1982) belongs to the subfamily Carventinae. A curious single specimen from Esquinas Rainforest, Piedras Blancas National Park could not be assigned to any Neotropical genus and species and is here described as Esquinacoris brailovskyi gen.nov., sp.nov
