Forda is a genus of aphids belonging to the family Aphididae. [1] The genus was first described by Carl von Heyden in 1837. [1] The species of this genus are found in Eurasia and North America. [2]
The following species are recognised in the genus Forda:
Trama is a genus of aphids, in the order Hemiptera. They are noted for their lack of sexual reproduction.
Meloe is a genus of blister beetles commonly referred to as oil beetles. The name derives from their defensive strategy: when threatened by collectors or predators they release oily droplets of hemolymph from their joints. This fluid is bright orange and contains cantharidin, a poisonous chemical compound. Wiping the chemical on skin can cause blistering and painful swelling of the skin. This defensive strategy is not exclusive to this genus; all meloids possess and exude cantharidin upon threat.
