This paper deals with the Green-Schwarz formulation of heterotic superstrings, propagating in a background superspace, and its characteristic {kappa}-symmetry. The role of {kappa}-symmetry anomalies, in implementing the superspace constraints, is clarified. A cohomological consistency condition for these anomalies, that strongly restricts their structure, is obtained. The superspace constraints, which follow by requiring that BRST {kappa}-symmetry is preserved at the quantum level, agree with these found recently in the framework of a superspace formulation of SUGRA-SYM models.
