The Pentatomoidea are a superfamily of insects in the Heteroptera suborder of the Hemiptera order. As Hemiptera, they share a common arrangement of sucking mouthparts. The roughly 7000 species under Pentatomoidea are divided into 21 families. Among these are the stink bugs and shield bugs, jewel bugs, giant shield bugs, and burrower bugs.
Stink bug or stinkbug is a common name for several insects and may refer to:
Pentatomidae is a family of insects belonging to the order Hemiptera, generally called shield bugs or stink bugs. Pentatomidae is the largest family in the superfamily Pentatomoidea, and contains around 900 genera and over 4700 species. As hemipterans, the pentatomids have piercing sucking mouthparts, and most are phytophagous, including several species which are severe pests on agricultural crops. However, some species, particularly in the subfamily Asopinae, are predatory and may be considered beneficial.
Acanthosomatidae is a family of Hemiptera, commonly named "shield bugs" or "stink bugs". Kumar in his 1974 world revision recognized 47 genera; now this number is 55 genera, with about 200 species, and it is one of the least diverse families within Pentatomoidea. The Acanthosomatidae species are found throughout the world, being most abundant in high-latitude temperate regions and in subtropical regions at high altitudes.
The green stink bug or green soldier bug is a stink bug of the family Pentatomidae.
Codophila varia is a species of shield bug belonging to the subfamily Pentatominae in the family Pentatomidae.
Carpocoris mediterraneus, the red shield bug, is a species of shield bug in the family Pentatomidae.
Gymnosoma clavatum is a species of tachinid flies in the genus Gymnosoma of the family Tachinidae.
Carpocoris purpureipennis is a species of shield bug of the family Pentatomidae, subfamily Pentatominae.
Stagonomus venustissimus, common name woundwort shieldbug, is a species of shieldbug belonging to the family Pentatomidae, subfamily Pentatominae.
Carpocoris pudicus is a species of shield bug in the family Pentatomidae.
Eysarcoris is a genus of shield bugs belonging to the family Pentatomidae, subfamily Pentatominae, and typical of the tribe Eysarcorini.
Pinthaeus sanguinipes is a species of stink bug.
Cosmopepla is a genus of stink bugs in the family Pentatomidae. Cosmopepla lintneriana is the type species. Cosmopepla lintneriana was first described in 1798 by Johan Christian Fabricius as Cimex carnifex.
Carpocoris fuscispinus is a species of shield bug in the family Pentatomidae.
Piezodorus guildinii, known generally as red-banded stink bug, is a species of stink bug in the family Pentatomidae. Other common names include the small green stink bug and alfalfa bug.
Troilus is a genus of shield bugs in the family Pentatomidae. There are at least two described species in Troilus.
