The Lygaeoidea are a sizeable superfamily of true bugs, containing seed bugs and allies, in the order Hemiptera. There are about 16 families and more than 4,600 described species in Lygaeoidea, found worldwide. Most feed on seeds or sap, but a few are predators.
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.
Berytidae is a family of the order Hemiptera, commonly called stilt bugs or thread bugs. 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.
Heterogastridae is a family of lygaeoid bugs consisting of about 20 genera and more than 100 species.
Cydninae is a subfamily of burrowing bugs in the family Cydnidae. There are about 11 genera and at least 40 described species in Cydninae.
Rhyparochrominae is a subfamily of dirt-colored seed bugs in the family Rhyparochromidae. There are more than 410 genera and 2,000 described species in Rhyparochrominae.
Berytinus is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There are about 12 described species in Berytinus.
Jalysus is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There are about 12 described species in Jalysus.
Geocoridae is a family of big-eyed bugs in the order Hemiptera. There are more than 290 described species in Geocoridae.
Metacanthinae is a subfamily of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There are about 12 genera and 80 described species in Metacanthinae.
Neoneides is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There is one described species in Neoneides, N. muticus.
Pseudophloeinae is a subfamily of leaf-footed bugs in the family Coreidae. There are at least 100 described species in Pseudophloeinae, distributed worldwide.
Hoplinus echinatus is a species of stilt bug in the family Berytidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Hoplinus is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There are about six described species in Hoplinus.
Pronotacantha annulata is a species of stilt bug in the family Berytidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Pronotacantha is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There are about seven described species in Pronotacantha.
Metacanthus is a genus of stilt bugs in the family Berytidae. There are more than 20 described species in Metacanthus.
Colobathristidae is a family of true bugs in the order Hemiptera. There are more than 20 genera and 90 described species in Colobathristidae.
Malcidae is a family of true bugs in the order Hemiptera. There are at least 4 genera and more than 40 described species in Malcidae.
Ischnorhynchinae is a subfamily of seed bugs in the family Lygaeidae. There are about 16 genera and more than 70 described species in Ischnorhynchinae. The members of this subfamily are small, terrestrial insects that typically translucent or transparent plate-like structures covering the thorax (pronota) and tend to live in plant flowers.
