Pygoda is a New World genus of stink bugs in the family Pentatomidae.[1] It was formerly considered a subgenus of Edessa but was elevated to genus based on morphological traits: species grouped under Pygoda share a distinctive set of features from body, male external genitalia, and male and female internal genitalia that are very different from any other subgenus of Edessa.[2]
