Gelonus is a genus of leaf-footed bug (Coreidae) in Tasmania, one of the few Coreidae that feeds on eucalypts. It is a member of the Amorbini tribe, but has only a single genus, Gelonus tasmanicus (Le Guillou, 1841).Although this Tasmanian leaf-footed bug was first described in 1841 by Élie Jean François Le Guillou as Syromastes tasmanicus, it wasn't until 1873 that Carl Stål placed it in his newly formed genus Gelonus, as Gelonus tasmanicus.
