Molipteryx fuliginosa (Uhler, 1860) | |
Molipteryx fuliginosa is a species of squash bugs belonging to the subfamily Coreinae.
This species is present in Japan and Southeastern Russia. [1] [2]
After overwintering, female adults copulate multiple times from May thru August, laying between 21 and 36 eggs over multiple oviposition events. Eggs are laid both on host plants in the families Rosaceae and Asteraceae (on which nymphs can feed) and on other substrates, such as the ground. [3] Eggs develop into adults over a timespan of 80 to 117 days depending on air temperature, passing through five instars. [4]
In Southeast Russia, M. fuliginosa can damage red raspberry crops through feeding on the sap and fruit of these plants. [2]
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 western conifer seed bug, sometimes abbreviated as WCSB, is a species of true bug (Hemiptera) in the family Coreidae. It is native to North America west of the Rocky Mountains but has in recent times expanded its range to eastern North America, to include Ontario, Québec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Michigan, Maine, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin, and has become an accidental introduced species in parts of Europe and Argentina.
Coreidae is a large family of predominantly sap-sucking insects in the Hemipteran suborder Heteroptera. The name "Coreidae" derives from the genus Coreus, which derives from the Ancient Greek κόρις (kóris) meaning bedbug.
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 brown marmorated stink bug is an insect in the family Pentatomidae, native to China, Japan, Korea, and other Asian regions. In September 1998, it was collected in Allentown, Pennsylvania, where it is believed to have been accidentally introduced. The nymphs and adults of the brown marmorated stink bug feed on over 100 species of plants, including many agricultural crops, and by 2010–11 had become a season-long pest in orchards in the Eastern United States. In 2010, in the Mid-Atlantic United States, $37 million in apple crops were lost, and some stone fruit growers lost more than 90% of their crops. Since the 2010s, the bug has spread to countries such as Georgia and Turkey and caused extensive damage to hazelnut production. It is now established in many parts of North America, and has recently become established in Europe and South America.
The Tingidae are a family of very small insects in the order Hemiptera that are commonly referred to as lace bugs. This group is distributed worldwide with about 2,000 described species.
Coreus marginatus is a herbivorous species of true bug in the family Coreidae. It is commonly known as the dock bug as it feeds on the leaves and seeds of docks and sorrels. It is a medium-sized speckled brown insect, between 13 and 15 mm long as an adult, with a broad abdomen. It occurs throughout Europe, Asia and northern Africa. It is often found in dense vegetation, such as hedgerows and wasteland.
Stenoptilia aktashiensis is a moth of the family Pterophoridae found in Central Asia.
Stenoptilia alaii is a moth of the family Pterophoridae.
Stenoptilia caradjai is a moth of the family Pterophoridae.
Stenoptilia inexpectata is a moth of the family Pterophoridae.
Stenoptilia murzini is a moth of the family Pterophoridae.
Stenoptilia transversata is a moth of the family Pterophoridae.
Clytiomya continua is a European species of fly in the family Tachinidae. Hosts for the parasitoid larvae include Coreus marginatus orientalis, Eurygaster testudinaria, Eurydema gebleri, Eurydema dominulus, Graphosoma rubrolineatum, Homalogonia confusa, and Dolycoris baccarum. Larval development takes six to eleven days.
Cydninae is a subfamily of burrowing bugs in the family Cydnidae. There are about 11 genera and at least 40 described species in Cydninae.
Acanthocheila is a genus of lace bugs in the family Tingidae. There are about 17 described species in Acanthocheila.
Acanthocephala terminalis is a species of leaf-footed bug in the family Coreidae. It is found in North America.
Corythaica is a genus of eggplant tingids in the family Tingidae. There are more than 20 described species in Corythaica.
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.
The giant mesquite bug is an insect of the order Hemiptera, or the "true bugs". As a member of the family Coreidae, it is a leaf-footed bug. As the common name implies, it is a large bug that feeds on mesquite trees of the American Southwest and Northwestern Mexico.
