Rhyparochromidae
The Rhyparochromidae are a large family of true bugs (order Hemiptera), many of which are commonly referred to as seed bugs. The family includes two subfamilies, more than 420 genera, and over 2,100 described species. Rhyparochromidae are small and generally brown or mottled. The fore femora are often enlarged. The name Rhyparochromidae comes from the Greek words ''rhyparos'', meaning "dirt", and ''chromus'', meaning "color". The Rhyparochromidae were previously classified as a subfamily of Lygaeidae. Subfamilies and Tribes The family Rhyparochromidae has two subfamilies, Plinthisinae with only 2 genera, and Rhyparochrominae with more than 400 genera in 14 tribes: : Antillocorini : Cleradini : Drymini : Gonianotini : Lethaeini : Lilliputocorini : Megalonotini : Myodochini : Ozophorini : Phasmosomini : Rhyparochromini : Stygnocorini : Targaremini : Udeocorini See also * List of Rhyparochrominae genera These 434 genera belong to Rhyparochrominae, a subfamily of dirt-col ...

Prytanes Globosus
The ''prytaneis'' (πρυτάνεις; sing.: πρύτανις ''prytanis'') were the executives of the '' boule'' of ancient Athens.

When Cleisthenes reorganized the Athenian government in 508/7 BCE, he replaced the old Solonian boule, or council, of 400 with a new boule of 500. The old boule consisted of 100 members of each of the four ancestral tribes. Cleisthenes created ten new tribes and made the boule consist of 50 men from each of these tribes. Each tribe's delegation would be an executive of the boule for one-tenth of the year, so that ten groups of prytaneis served each year, a position granted by sortition. The executive officers were known as prytaneis and their term of office as a prytany (πρυτανία). Duties The ''prytaneis'' served every day during their prytany. They formally called to meeting the ful ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
