Rhopalidae
Rhopalidae, or scentless plant bugs, are a family (biology), family of true bugs. In older literature, the family is sometimes called "Corizidae". They differ from the related Coreidae, coreids in lacking well-developed scent glands. They are usually light-colored and smaller than the coreids. Some are very similar to the Orsillinae, orsilline Lygaeidae, lygaeids, but can be distinguished by the numerous veins in the membrane of the Insect wing, hemelytra. They live principally on weeds, but a few (including the Boisea trivittata, boxelder bug) are Arboreal locomotion, arboreal. All are plant feeders. The type genus for the family is: ''Rhopalus''. Currently 30 genera and over 240 species of rhopalids are known. The oldest fossil rhopalids described are from the Middle Jurassic of Inner Mongolia, discovered from the Haifanggou Formation. They are not considered economically important with a few species being pests of ornamental trees. References External links Rhopalidae of ...

Boisea Trivittata
''Boisea trivittata'', also called the eastern boxelder bug, box bug, or maple bug, is a species of true bug native to eastern North America. The western boxelder bug '' Boisea rubrolineata'' is a relative of this species and is native to western North America. Eastern boxelder bugs are found primarily on boxelder, other maples, and ash trees.Boxelder Bugs University of Minnesota Extension Etymology Trivittata is from the Latin ''tri'' (three) + ''vittata'' (banded).Biology and description The adults are about long with a dark brown or black coloration, relieved by red wing veins and markings on the abdomen, with dark red eyes; are bright ...[...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rhopalus Subrufus
''Rhopalus subrufus'' is a species of ''scentless plant bugs'' belonging to the family Rhopalidae, subfamily Rhopalinae. It is found in most of Europe, but not Ireland and northern Scandinavia. Description The total length of ''R. subrufus'' is about . It can be distinguished for its membranous forewings and the connexivum with dark and light stripes. It mainly feeds on ''Hypericum ''Hypericum'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family (biology), family Hypericaceae (formerly considered a subfamily of Clusiaceae).

Coreoidea
Coreoidea is a superfamily of true bugs in the infraorder Pentatomomorpha which includes leaf-footed bugs and allies. There are more than 3,300 described species in Coreoidea. There are five extant families presently recognized, but the Coreoidea as a whole are part of a close-knit group with the Lygaeoidea and Pyrrhocoroidea and it is likely that these three superfamilies are paraphyletic to a significant extent; they are therefore in need of revision and redelimitation. The families are: * Alydidae Amyot & Serville, 1843 – broad-headed bugs * Coreidae Coreidae is a large family (biology), family of predominantly sap-sucking insects in the Hemipteran suborder Heteroptera. The name "Coreidae" derives from the genus ''Coreus'', which derives from the Ancient Greek () meaning bedbug. As a fam ...

Coreidae
Coreidae is a large family (biology), family of predominantly sap-sucking insects in the Hemipteran suborder Heteroptera. The name "Coreidae" derives from the genus ''Coreus'', which derives from the Ancient Greek () meaning bedbug. As a family, the Coreidae are Cosmopolitan distribution, cosmopolitan, but most of the species are tropical or subtropical. Common names and significance The common names of the Coreidae vary regionally. Leaf-footed bug refers to leaf-like expansions on the Insect morphology#Legs, legs of some species, generally on the hind tibiae. In North America, the pest status of species such as ''Anasa tristis'' on squash (plant), squash plants and other Cucurbitaceae, cucurbits gave rise to the name squash bugs. The Coreidae are called twig-wilters or tip-wilters in parts of Africa and Australia because many species feed on young twigs, injecting enzymes that wikt:macerate, macerate the tissues of the growing tips and cause them to wilt abruptly.

True Bug
Hemiptera (; ) is an order of insects, commonly called true bugs, comprising more than 80,000 species within groups such as the cicadas, aphids, planthoppers, leafhoppers, assassin bugs, bed bugs, and shield bugs. They range in size from to around , and share a common arrangement of piercing-sucking mouthparts. The name "true bugs" is sometimes limited to the suborder Heteroptera. Entomologists reserve the term ''bug'' for Hemiptera or Heteroptera,Gilbert Waldbauer. ''The Handy Bug Answer Book.'' Visible Ink, 1998p. 1. which does not include other arthropods or insects of other orders such as ants, bees, beetles, or butterflies. In some varieties of English, all terrestrial arthropods (including non-insect arachnids and myriapods) also fall under the colloquial understanding of ''bug''. Many insects with "bug" in their common name, especially in American English, belong to other orders; for example, the lovebug is a fly and the Maybug and ladybug are beetles. The term is o ...

Scent Gland
Scent gland are exocrine glands found in most mammals. They produce semi-viscous secretions which contain pheromones and other semiochemical compounds. These odor-messengers indicate information such as status, territorial marking, mood, and sexual behaviour. The odor may be subliminal—not consciously detectable. Though it is not their primary function, the salivary glands may also function as scent glands in some animals. In even-toed ungulates The even-toed ungulates (Artiodactyla) have many specialized skin glands, the secretions of which are involved in semiochemical communication. These glands include the sudoriferous glands (located on the forehead, between the antlers and eyes), the preorbital glands (extending from the medial canthus of each eye), the nasal glands (located inside the nostrils), the interdigital glands (located between the toes), the preputial gland (located inside the foreskin of the penis), the metatarsal glands (located outside of the hind legs ...
