Sulawesifulvius is a genus of true bugs in the family Miridae. The genus was described in 2004 based on a specimen collected by fogging of the forest canopy in Sulawesi. It was found to be unlike any other members in the subfamily Cylapinae. The type species was named in honour of entomologist Randall T. Schuh. Almost nothing is known of the biology of the species. [1]

Contents

Sulawesifulvius looks similar to Peritropis but is more flattened with tubercles on the vertex and frons, a short beak and prominent angles in fronts of the pronotum (top of thorax). The genus was monotypic until a second species was described in 2014 from Yinggeling National Nature Reserve in the Hainan Province of China [2] , a third from southern India in 2015, [3] and a fourth from Thailand in 2017.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Schizopteridae</span> Family of true bugs

Schizopteridae is the largest family in the infraorder Dipsocoromorpha and comprises 56 genera and approximately 255 species. Schizopterids are some of the smallest (0.5–2.0 mm) true bugs. Members of this family can be distinguished by their small size, enlarged forecoxae and varying degree of abdominal and genitalic asymmetry in males. Schizopteridae exhibit a wide range of simple and complex wing venation patterns. The group is currently divided into three subfamilies: Schizopterinae, Ogeriinae and Hypselosomatinae.

<i>Orthotylus</i> Genus of bugs

Orthotylus is a genus of bugs from the family Miridae. There are more than 300 described species worldwide. The sheer number of species has led to the recognition of subgenera and groups, some of which may be promoted to genus level. Yamsunaga recognized the genus as non-monophyletic, and without consistent diagnostic characteristics.
