Neides Brevipennis
The genus ''Neides'' is a small but common Old World group of stilt bugs; the name has precedence of the junior synonym name ''Berytus'' which Fabricius coined for the same taxon in 1803. It formerly included one North American species (''Neides muticus''), which has been removed to its own genus, ''Neoneides ''Neoneides'' is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae Berytidae is a family of the order Hemiptera ("true bugs"), commonly called stilt bugs or thread bugs (not to be confused with the thread-legged bugs, Emesinae).

Neides Tipularius
''Neides tipularius'' is a Palearctic stilt bug. It occurs from the Northern Mediterranean to Scandinavia and the British Isles. Further east it is found in Asia minor and the Caucasus to Central Asia. In Germany and the Alps it is widespread and not uncommon. In Britain it is locally common in large parts of the South. In Ireland it is rare. Adults are 9.5 to 11.5 mm long. They are drab grey-brown or straw coloured and easily recognizable by their slender elongate bodies and very long legs. The similar representatives of the genus ''Berytinus'' are smaller and have a much shorter second antennal segment. The hemielytra are always fully developed. Nymphs are colored green. ''Neides tipularius'' feeds on various herbaceous plants such as ''Cerastium'', '' Arenaria'', ''Silene'', various Caryophyllaceae, ''Erodium'', Geraniaceae and others. The imagines also feed on grasses (Poaceae such as ''Corynephorus'' and ''Agrostis ''Agrostis'' (bent or bentgrass) is a large and ...

Johan Christian Fabricius
Johann Christian Fabricius (7 January 1745 – 3 March 1808) was a Danish zoologist, specialising in "Insecta", which at that time included all arthropods: insects, arachnids, crustaceans and others. He was a student of Carl Linnaeus, and is considered one of the most important entomologists of the 18th century, having named nearly 10,000 species of animals, and established the basis for the modern insect classification. Biography Johann Christian Fabricius was born on 7 January 1745 at Tønder in the Duchy of Schleswig, where his father was a doctor. He studied at the gymnasium at Altona and entered the University of Copenhagen in 1762. Later the same year he travelled together with his friend and relative Johan Zoëga to Uppsala, where he studied under Carl Linnaeus for two years. On his return, he started work on his , which was finally published in 1775. Throughout this time, he remained dependent on subsidies from his father, who worked as a consultant at Frederiks H ...

Old World
The "Old World" () is a term for Afro-Eurasia coined by Europeans after 1493, when they became aware of the existence of the Americas. It is used to contrast the continents of Africa, Europe, and Asia in the Eastern Hemisphere, previously thought of by the Europeans as comprising the entire world, with the "New World", a term for the newly encountered lands of the Western Hemisphere, particularly the Americas. Etymology In the context of archaeology and world history, the term "Old World" includes those parts of the world which were in (indirect) cultural contact from the Bronze Age onwards, resulting in the parallel development of the early civilizations, mostly in the temperate zone between roughly the 45th and 25th parallels north, in the area of the Mediterranean, including North Africa. It also included Mesopotamia, the Persian plateau, the Indian subcontinent, China, and parts of Sub-Saharan Africa. These regions were connected via the Silk Road trade route, and ...

Stilt Bug
Berytidae is a family of the order Hemiptera ("true bugs"), commonly called stilt bugs or thread bugs (not to be confused with the thread-legged bugs, Emesinae). Most berytids are brown to yellow, with species that are plant sap feeders, a few being predaceous. About 200 species are known from all around the world and they are classified into three subfamilies. Description The Berytidae are extremely gracile insects with legs so long and slender as to suggest common names such as "thread bugs" and "stilt bugs". In this they resemble the Emesinae, with which they are easily confused, though they are in different families. They may be distinguished most readily by the forelegs, that in the Emesinae are raptorial in a way resembling those of the Mantodea, Mantispidae and certain other invertebrate predators. In form and function the forelegs of the Berytidae are roughly similar to those of their other legs. Other differences are subtler and not fully consistent. For one thing, the a ...

North America
North America is a continent in the Northern Hemisphere, Northern and Western Hemisphere, Western hemispheres. North America is bordered to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the east by the Atlantic Ocean, to the southeast by South America and the Caribbean Sea, and to the south and west by the Pacific Ocean. The region includes Middle America (Americas), Middle America (comprising the Caribbean, Central America, and Mexico) and Northern America. North America covers an area of about , representing approximately 16.5% of Earth's land area and 4.8% of its total surface area. It is the third-largest continent by size after Asia and Africa, and the list of continents and continental subregions by population, fourth-largest continent by population after Asia, Africa, and Europe. , North America's population was estimated as over 592 million people in list of sovereign states and dependent territories in North America, 23 independent states, or about 7.5% of the world's popula ...
