Zeluroides americanus is a species of assassin bug in the family Reduviidae. It is found in Central America and North America. [1] [2] [3]
These three subspecies belong to the species Zeluroides americanus:
Triatoma is a genus of assassin bug in the subfamily Triatominae. The members of Triatoma are blood-sucking insects that can transmit serious diseases, such as Chagas disease. Their saliva may also trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, up to and including severe anaphylactic shock.
Microtriatoma is a genus of bugs that belongs to the subfamily Triatominae.
Parabelminus is a genus of bugs in the subfamily Triatominae. The species of this genus could be found in Brazil, specially in Rio de Janeiro and Bahia. It is a vector of Chagas disease.
Aenictopecheidae is a rare family of insects occurring worldwide but containing only a few species, including a single American species, Boreostolus americanus. This species lives under large, flat stones and sandy substrates along mountain streams in Oregon, Washington, and Colorado. It is 5 mm long and occurs in both the macropterous and brachypterous condition. It is assumed to be predaceous.
The Reduviinae are a subfamily of the reduviid assassin bugs. Many members of the subfamily are nocturnal and their lifecycles are generally poorly known. This subfamily is suspected not to be monophyletic.
Triatoma lecticularia is a species of kissing bug in the family Reduviidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Nallachius americanus is a species of pleasing lacewing in the family Dilaridae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea, North America, and South America.
Triatoma recurva is a species of kissing bug in the family Reduviidae. It is found in Central America and North America. Like all of the kissing bugs in the genus Triatoma, it is an obligate blood feeder that primarily targets vertebrates. However, individuals can consume the hemolymph of arthropods, and can develop to maturity on a diet consisting entirely of cockroaches.
Zeluroides is a genus of assassin bugs in the family Reduviidae. There are at least two described species in Zeluroides.
Leptocerus americanus is a species of long-horned caddisfly in the family Leptoceridae. It is found in North America.
Dryophthorus americanus is a species of beetle in the family Dryophthoridae. It is found in North America.
Sphindus americanus is a species of cryptic slime mold beetle in the family Sphindidae. It is found in North America.
Triatoma rubida is a species of kissing bug in the family Reduviidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Catops americanus is a species of small carrion beetle in the family Leiodidae. It is found in North America.
Triatoma neotomae is a species of kissing bug in the family Reduviidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Byrrhus americanus is a species of pill beetle in the family Byrrhidae. It is found in North America.
Scymnus americanus, the American scymnus lady beetle, is a species of dusky lady beetle in the family Coccinellidae. It is found in North America.
Stenolemoides is a genus of thread-legged bugs in the family Reduviidae. There are at least three described species in Stenolemoides.
Ceraleptus americanus is a species of leaf-footed bug in the family Coreidae. It is found in North America.
Monalocoris americanus is a species of plant bug in the family Miridae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea and North America.
