Pyrrhocoridae is a family of insects with more than 300 species world-wide. Many are red coloured and are known as red bugs and some species are called cotton stainers because their feeding activities leave an indelible yellow-brownish stain on cotton crops. A common species in parts of Europe is the firebug, and its genus name Pyrrhocoris and the family name are derived from the Greek roots for fire "pyrrho-" and bug "coris". Members of this family are often confused with, but can be quickly separated from, Lygaeidae by the lack of ocelli on the top of the head.
Daniel Alberto Brailovsky Poliak is an Argentine-born Israeli former professional footballer and manager.
Petr Stehlík is a Czech shot putter. His personal best throw is 20.96 metres, achieved in May 2004 in Turnov. The Czech record is currently held by Remigius Machura with 21.93 metres.
Dindymus is Old World genus of true bugs in the family Pyrrhocoridae. They are often confused with bugs in the family Lygaeidae, but can be distinguished by the lack of ocelli on the head.
Dr Victor Brailovsky is a computer scientist, mathematician, aliyah activist and a former Israeli politician. He served as Minister of Science and Technology for six days in 2004. In May 1986 Brailovsky was awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree from the Open University in England.
Leptoglossus is a genus of true bugs in the leaf-footed bug family and the tribe Anisoscelini. Species are distributed throughout the Americas, with some records in eastern & southern Asia and Europe. Several species are economic pests of agricultural crops. Like members of some other genera in the family, these bugs have leaflike dilations of the hind tibia. Several species are of economic importance, and one species, L. chilensis, has been reported to bite humans.
Anisoscelini is a tribe of leaf-footed bugs in the family Coreidae. It was formerly spelled Anisoscelidini, but the tribal name spelling was incorrectly formed.
Pselliopus is a common genus of assassin bugs (Reduviidae), in the subfamily Harpactorinae. The genus is restricted to the New World, with 27 species described. Some species, such as Pselliopus barberi, are conspicuous because of their bright coloring and relatively large size. Some species of the genus are of interest as potential biological pest control agents.
Henrik Stehlik is a German trampoline gymnast and three-time Olympic athlete. He competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, where he received a bronze medal in the men's trampoline event. Since then he has also competed in the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympics. Stehlik was also an active member of German Olympic Sports Federation.
Hygia is a large genus of Asian seed bugs in the tribe Colpurini, erected by Philip Reese Uhler in 1861.
Josef Stehlík was a Czech fighter ace. In World War II he served in the French Air Force and then the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve. In 1944 he transferred to the Eastern Front, where he commanded the 1st Czechoslovak Independent Fighter Air Regiment.
The Blissidae are a family in the Hemiptera, comprising nearly 50 genera and 400 species. The group has often been treated as a subfamily of the Lygaeidae but was resurrected as a full family by Thomas Henry (1997).
The Daladerini are a tribe of leaf-footed bugs, in the subfamily Coreinae erected by Carl Stål in 1873. Genera are distributed from Africa to South-East Asia.
Lygaeinae is a subfamily of ground bugs in the insect family Lygaeidae.
Myodochini is a tribe of dirt-colored seed bugs in the family Rhyparochromidae. There are more than 80 genera and 370 described species in Myodochini.
Ozophorini is a tribe of dirt-colored seed bugs in the family Rhyparochromidae. There are more than 30 genera and 220 described species in Ozophorini.
Piezogaster is a genus of leaf-footed bugs in the family Coreidae. There are at least 30 described species in Piezogaster.
Arhaphe cicindeloides is a species of bordered plant bug in the family Largidae. It is found in Central America but all records of this species from the United States are misidentifications of the related Arhaphe arguta.
Arhaphe is a genus of bordered plant bugs in the family Largidae. There are 26 described species in Arhaphe. The genus is one of a small number of hemipterans known to possess a sound-producing stridulitrum, in which the hind femur is rubbed against the costal margin of the forewings.
The Colpurini are a tribe of leaf-footed bugs, in the subfamily Coreinae erected by Gustav Breddin in 1900. Genera are distributed from India, South-East Asia through to Australia and New Zealand. The tribe name (type) is based on Colpura Bergroth: now a subgenus of Hygia.
