The two closely related and frequently confused genera of the fungal-inhabiting plant bug subfamily Cylapinae, Bothriomiris Kirkaldy, 1902 and Dashymenia Poppius, 1910 are redefined and reviewed. Two new species of Dashymenia, D. artchawakomi, new species and D. gorczycai, new species, are described from Thailand. Bothriomiris capillosus Yasunaga, 2000 and B. yakushima Yasunaga & Miyamoto, 2012 are transferred to the genus Dashymenia Poppius, and a revised key to the two genera is provided. Color habitus images of the adults are given for Dashymenia artchawakomi, D. capillosa, and D. gorczycai. The male genitalic structures of the following species are illustrated: Bothriomiris ernsti Yasunaga & Miyamoto, B. lugubris Poppius, Dashymenia artchawakomi, D. capillosa, and D. gorczycai. Photographic images of live individuals (adults and fourth and final instar immatures) are also provided for D. artchawakomi.
