Xyonysius is a genus of seed bugs in the family Lygaeidae. There are about eight described species in Xyonysius. [1] [2] [3]
These 10 species belong to the genus Xyonysius:
The Lygaeidae are a family in the Hemiptera, with more than 110 genera in four subfamilies. The family includes the insects commonly known as milkweed bugs, and also some of those known as seed bugs. 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. Many of the species feed on seeds, although some feed on sap (mucivory), and a few, such as the wekiu bug, feed on insects.
