The Pentatomoidea are a superfamily of insects in the suborder Heteroptera of the order Hemiptera. As hemipterans, they possess 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.
The Gerromorpha comprise an infraorder of insects in the "true bug" order Hemiptera. These "typical" bugs are commonly called semiaquatic bugs or shore-inhabiting bugs. The Ochteroidea (infraorder Nepomorpha are also found in shore habitat, while the Gerromorpha are actually most often encountered running around on the water surface, being kept from sinking by surface tension and their water-repellent legs. Well-known members of the Gerromorpha are the namesake Gerridae.
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.
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.
Hydrometridae is a family of semiaquatic insects, known as marsh treaders or water measurers. They have a characteristic elongated head and body which makes them resemble a yardstick for measuring the water surface.
Pleidae, the pygmy backswimmers, is a family of aquatic insects in the order Hemiptera. There are 37 species in three genera, distributed across most of the world, except the polar regions and remote oceanic islands.
Hydrometra stagnorum, the common water-measurer, is a species of aquatic bugs in the family Hydrometridae, the water measurers.
Rhagovelia magdalena is a species of aquatic bug first found in Vereda La Vega, Río Magdalena, Oporapa, Huila, Colombia.
Polymerus is a genus of plant bugs in the family Miridae. There are at least 100 described species in Polymerus.
Pelocoris is a genus of creeping water bugs in the family Naucoridae. There are about 15 described species in Pelocoris.
Kalama tricornis, the gorse lacebug, is a species of lace bug in the family Tingidae.
Gargaphia iridescens is a species of lace bug in the family Tingidae. It is found in Central America, North America, and South America.
Hydrometra australis is a species of water measurer in the family Hydrometridae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea, Central America, and North America.
Hydrometra is a genus of water measurers in the family Hydrometridae. There are more than 120 described species in Hydrometra.
Acanthocephala terminalis is a species of leaf-footed bug in the family Coreidae. It is found in North America.
Acanthocephala thomasi, the giant agave bug, is a species of leaf-footed bug in the family Coreidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Pelocoris balius is a species of creeping water bug in the family Naucoridae. It is found in Florida. In the Everglades, P. balius is locally common in shorter hydroperiod sites.
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.
Meschiidae is a family of true bugs in the order Hemiptera. It comprises at least three genera and about five described species within the Meschiidae family.
Hydrometra gracilenta, the lesser water-measurer, is a species of aquatic bugs in the family Hydrometridae.
