Caenocoris is a genus of ground bugs in the insect family Lygaeidae.
Species within this genus include: [1]
Pyrophorus is a genus of click beetle. They are one of several genera in the tribe Pyrophorini, all of which are bioluminescent. Their bioluminescence is similar to that of another group of beetles, the fireflies, although click beetles do not flash, but remain constantly glowing. They have two luminescent spots at the posterior corners of the pronotum, and another brighter light organ on the most-anterior surface of the ventral abdomen. This light organ is even brighter and can only be seen when in flight. Bioluminescent click beetles are found throughout tropical, subtropical and temperate America. Species from Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico, and Cuba are now in different genera in the tribe Pyrophorini, such as Deilelater and Ignelater.
The Lygaeidae are a family in the Hemiptera, with more than 110 genera in four subfamilies. The family is commonly referred to as seed bugs, and less commonly, milkweed bugs, or ground bugs. However, while many of the species feed on seeds, some feed on sap (mucivory) or seed pods, others are omnivores and a few, such as the wekiu bug, are carnivores that feed exclusively on insects. Insects in this family are distributed across the world. The family was vastly larger, but numerous former subfamilies have been removed and given independent family status, including the Artheneidae, Blissidae, Cryptorhamphidae, Cymidae, Geocoridae, Heterogastridae, Ninidae, Oxycarenidae and Rhyparochromidae, which together constituted well over half of the former family.
Arilus, or wheel bugs, is a genus of true bugs in the family Reduviidae, subfamily Harpactorinae and tribe Harpactorini. Most species are found in the Americas.
Platymeris is a genus of assassin bug (Reduviidae). Platymeris species are often used in laboratories and as pets.
Spilostethus is a genus of bugs in the family Lygaeidae. Most species in this genus are from the Palearctic and Oriental regions.
Ceutorhynchus is a genus of true weevils in the tribe Ceutorhynchini. There are at least 400 described species in Ceutorhynchus.
Caenocoris nerii, common name oleander seedbug, is a species of ground bugs in the insect family Lygaeidae.
Clastopteridae is a family of spittlebugs in the order Hemiptera. There are at least 10 genera and 100 described species in Clastopteridae.
Alydus is the type genus of broad-headed bugs in the family Alydidae. There are about 11 described species in Alydus, including 2 extinct species. Species are recorded from North America and Europe through to temperate Asia.
Camirus is a genus of shield-backed bugs in the family Scutelleridae. There are at least four described species in Camirus.
Ceratocanthus is a genus of pill scarab beetles in the family Hybosoridae. There are more than 50 described species in Ceratocanthus.
Tetyra is a genus of shield-backed bugs in the family Scutelleridae. There are about seven described species in Tetyra.
Stiretrus is a genus of predatory stink bugs in the family Pentatomidae. There are about six described species in Stiretrus.
Exoplectra is a genus of lady beetles in the family Coccinellidae. There are about nine described species in Exoplectra.
Vesperelater is a genus of click beetle. They are one of several genera in the tribe Pyrophorini, all of which are bioluminescent. Most of the species were formerly in the genus Pyrophorus.
Canopus is a genus of Neotropical bugs with about six species that form the family Canopidae. Bugs in the family Canopidae are small and have a convex lady-bird beetle like shape and are thought to be fungus feeders. The scutellum completely covers the abdomen and wings. The antennae are five segmented.
Eupelix is a genus of true bug belonging to the family Cicadellidae.
Aphanus is a genus of dirt-colored seed bugs in the family Rhyparochromidae. There are more than 20 described species in Aphanus.
Conomelus is a genus of true bugs belonging to the family Delphacidae.
Typhlocyba is a genus of true bugs belonging to the family Cicadellidae.
