Nematopus is a genus of true bugs belonging to the family Coreidae. [1]
The species of this genus are found in Central and Southern America. [1]
Species: [1]
Blattidae is a cockroach family in the order Blattodea containing several of the most common household cockroaches. Notable species include:
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.
The insect family Nabidae contains the damsel bugs. There are over 500 species in 20 genera. They are soft-bodied, elongate, winged terrestrial predators. Many damsel bugs catch and hold prey with their forelegs, similar to mantids. They are considered helpful species in agriculture because of their predation on many types of crop pests.
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.
Gelonus is a genus of leaf-footed bugs (Coreidae) in Tasmania, one of the few Coreidae that feeds on eucalypts. It is a member of the tribe Amorbini, but has only a single species, Gelonus tasmanicus(Le Guillou, 1841).
The poor man's tropheus is a species of fish in the family Cichlidae. Until 2007 it was the only species in the genus Neetroplus, but at that time it was reclassified into the genus Hypsophrys. In 2016 it was restored to the genus Neetroplus based on genetic research by Říčan, et al.
Hypsophrys is a small genus of cichlid fishes from Central America.
Hypsophrys nicaraguensis, the moga, is a species of cichlid native to the Atlantic slope of Central America, from Nicaragua to Costa Rica. The species is a popular aquarium fish and is traded under a variety of common names that include nickie, parrot cichlid, macaw cichlid, butterfly cichlid and nicaraguense. In Costa Rica it is known as a vieja.
Filatopus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is known from New Zealand and Argentina.
Harpactorini is a tribe of the Harpactorinae. This group is the most diverse of the entire assassin bug family, with 51 genera recognized in the Neotropical Region and 289 genera and 2003 species overall.
Cercopidae are the largest family of Cercopoidea, a xylem-feeding insect group, commonly called froghoppers or spittlebugs. They belong to the hemipteran suborder Auchenorrhyncha.
Spilostethus is a genus of bugs in the family Lygaeidae. Most species in this genus are from the Palearctic and Oriental regions.
Arocatus is a genus of bugs in the family Lygaeidae.
Catorhintha is a genus of leaf-footed bugs in the family Coreidae. There are more than 30 described species in Catorhintha.
Nematopodini is a tribe of leaf-footed bugs in the family Coreidae. There are at least 20 genera and 160 described species in Nematopodini.
The Micrelytrinae are a subfamily of bugs in the family Alydidae, based on the type genus Micrelytra Laporte, 1833. Genera are recorded from the Americas, Europe and Asia.
Dulichius is a genus of bugs in the family Alydidae and tribe Micrelytrini. It is notable for species which are ant mimics.
Pachygrontha is a genus of seed bugs and allies in the family Pachygronthidae. There are more than 30 described species in Pachygrontha.
The Petascelini are a tribe of leaf-footed bugs, in the subfamily Coreinae erected by Carl Stål in 1873. Many genera are from tropical Africa including the type genus Petascelis, but some are from South-East Asia. Ahmad gives key to the tribes of Coreinae including these genera.
