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.

The family Fulgoridae is a large group of hemipteran insects, especially abundant and diverse in the tropics, containing over 125 genera worldwide.

Various genera and species are sometimes referred to as lanternflies or lanthorn flies, but neither do their heads emit light, nor are they even distantly related to flies.

<i>Poblicia fuliginosa</i> Species of insect

Poblicia fuliginosa is a planthopper native to the United States, described by Guillaume-Antoine Olivier in 1791. The generic placement of the species is disputed. One author in 1954 placed it into the genus Crepusia but this has not generally been accepted; a 2023 review rejected this placement although they note that the genus Poblicia needs further study of its proper constituency.
