Naibiidae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are at least three genera and four described species in Naibiidae. [1] [2] [3]
These three genera belong to the family Naibiidae:
Hoverflies, also called flower flies or syrphid flies, make up the insect family Syrphidae. As their common name suggests, they are often seen hovering or nectaring at flowers; the adults of many species feed mainly on nectar and pollen, while the larvae (maggots) eat a wide range of foods. In some species, the larvae are saprotrophs, eating decaying plant and animal matter in the soil or in ponds and streams. In other species, the larvae are insectivores and prey on aphids, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects.
Mantidae is one of the largest families in the order of praying mantises, based on the type species Mantis religiosa; however, most genera are tropical or subtropical. Historically, this was the only family in the order, and many references still use the term "mantid" to refer to any mantis. Technically, however, "mantid" refers only to members of the family Mantidae, and not the 14 remaining families of mantises. Some of the most recent classifications have promoted a number of the mantid subfamilies to the rank of family, e.g. Iridopterygidae, Sibyllidae, Tarachodidae, Thespidae, and Toxoderidae, while other classifications have reduced the number of subfamilies without elevating to higher rank.
Potyviridae is a family of positive-strand RNA viruses that encompasses more than 30% of known plant viruses, many of which are of great agricultural significance. Currently, 228 species are placed in this family, divided among 12 genera with three unassigned species.
Anoeciinae is a subfamily of the family Aphididae. Anoeciines live underground and feed on the roots of plants.
Hymenopodidae is a family of the order Mantodea (mantises), which contains six subfamilies. Some of the species in this family mimic flowers and are found camouflaged among them; these are called flower mantises. Their coloration is aggressive mimicry, luring prey to approach close enough to be seized and eaten.
The Adelgidae are a small family of the Hemiptera closely related to the aphids, and often included in the Aphidoidea with the Phylloxeridae or placed within the superfamily Phylloxeroidea as a sister of the Aphidoidea within the infraorder Aphidomorpha. The family is composed of species associated with pine, spruce, or other conifers, known respectively as "pine aphids" or "spruce aphids". This family includes the former family Chermesidae, or "Chermidae", the name of which was declared invalid by the ICZN in 1955. There is still considerable debate as to the number of genera within the family, and the classification is still unstable and inconsistent among competing authors.
Dictyopharidae is a family of bugs in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha belonging to the infraorder Fulgoromorpha. The family comprises nearly 760 species in more than 150 genera.
Phylloxeridae is a small family of plant-parasitic hemipterans closely related to aphids with only 75 described species. This group comprises two subfamilies and 11 genera with one that is fossil. The genus type is Phylloxera. The Phylloxeridae species are usually called Phylloxerans or Phylloxerids.
Drepanosiphinae is a subfamily of aphids in the family Aphididae. There are about 13 genera, 8 of which are extinct, and more than 60 described species in Drepanosiphinae.
Calaphidinae is a subfamily of aphids in the family Aphididae. There are more than 60 genera and 360 described species in Calaphidinae.
Chaitophorinae is a subfamily of aphids in the family Aphididae. There are about 12 genera and more than 180 described species in Chaitophorinae.
Tropiduchinae is a subfamily of tropiduchid planthoppers in the family Tropiduchidae.
Ellinaphididae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are about 13 genera and more than 40 described species in Ellinaphididae.
Isolitaphididae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are at least three genera in Isolitaphididae.
Juraphididae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are at least three genera and about five described species in Juraphididae. The most recent discovery in Juraphididae family was the Prolavexillapis munditia in 2018 and Isolitaphidae are synonymy with the Juraphididae
Lebanaphididae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are at least two genera in Lebanaphididae.
Liviidae is a family of plant-parasitic hemipterans in the order Hemiptera. There are more than 20 genera and 370 described species in Liviidae.
Mesozoicaphididae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are at least four genera and about seven described species in Mesozoicaphididae.
Szelegiewicziidae is an extinct family of aphids in the order Hemiptera. There are about 6 genera and 10 described species in Szelegiewicziidae.
The Hierodulinae are a subfamily of praying mantids, originally used by Brunner von Wattenwyl. It was restored as part of a major revision of mantid taxonomy, and now contains genera previously placed elsewhere in the family Mantidae.
