  1. HEMIPTEROIDS

  2. Hemiptera Suborder Heteroptera: Belostomatidae Coreidae Corixidae Gerridae Largidae Lygaeidae Miridae Naucoridae Nepidae Notonectidae Pentatomidae Reduviidae Suborder Auchenorrhyncha: Cercopidae Cicadidae Cicadellidae Fulgoridae Membracidae Suborder Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae Superfamily Coccoidea Thysanoptera Psocoptera Phthiraptera Suborder Anoplura (sucking lice) chewing lice (formerly Mallophaga) HEMIPTEROIDS

  4. HEMIPTERA Derived characteristics: piercing, sucking mouthparts (mandibulary and maxillary stylets coadapted, containing alimentary and salivary canals, enclosed in segmented labium)

  5. HEMIPTERA http://www.ento.csiro.au/education/insects/hemiptera.html

  6. Family Rhopalidae (Scentless plant bugs) • some are similar to lygaeids, but can be distinguished through multiple veins in hemielytra • box elder bus (see picture) is a common southern species, feeding on… http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/pictures/Hemiptera.html

  7. Family Coreidae (leaf-footed bugs) • Scent glands on side of thorax (scents released can be pleasant or not) • some have expanded leaf like hind tibia (hence the name)

  8. Family Cimidae (bed bugs) • ~ 6mm long • Wingless adults; adapted to ectoparasitic life • irritating bites, but unimportant as disease vectors http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/pictures/Hemiptera.html

  9. Hemiptera with raptorial forelegs - 1 prosternal groove • Family Reduviidae (assassin bugs) • prosternal groove • abdomen widened, exposing lateral margins beyond wings

  10. Family Naucoridae (creeping waterbugs) - hemelytron membrane without venation Hemiptera with raptorial forelegs - 2 • Family Corixidae (water boatmen) • front tarsus scoop-shaped • dark dorsum, light venter

  11. Hemiptera with raptorial forelegs - 3 • Family Belostomatidae (giant waterbugs) • largest hemipterans in US • hemelytron membrane with venation • an easy catch at stadium light in warm nights to which they are attracted An urban legend?

  12. Family Gerridae (waterstriders) • long legged • skate on water surface with middle and hind legs • front legs for food capturing • tarsi clothed with hairs http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/pictures/Hemiptera.html

  13. HEMIPTERA http://www.ento.csiro.au/education/insects/hemiptera.html

  14. 3 ocelli Family Cicadidae

  15. Superfamily Fulgoroidea antennae below eyes no small spines on hind tibia small spines on hind tibia Family Cicadellidae Family Cercopidae

  16. pronotum over abdomen Family Membracidae

  17. HEMIPTERA http://www.ento.csiro.au/education/insects/hemiptera.html

  18. Family Aleyrodidae (whiteflies) • similar to small moths • common pests in greenhouses and • Citrus plants cornicle • Family Aphididae (aphids) • easily recognized by cornicles at the • end of abdomen http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/pictures/Hemiptera.html

  19. http://www.samford.edu/schools/artsci/biology/invert-03f/pages/101.htmhttp://www.samford.edu/schools/artsci/biology/invert-03f/pages/101.htm • Suborder Coccoidea (scale insects) • females often wing- and legless • males with single wing pair • Family Dactylopiidae - Cochineal Insects • waxy white insects on cacti, exude red dye when squished • economically important before chemical dyes were introduced

  20. THYSANOPTERA • Derived characteristics: • asymmetrical mouthparts with right mandible lost • pretarsus with protrusible "bladder", which balloons out as leg makes contact with the ground. • wing linear with long marginal setae • two or three quiescent, pre-imaginal instars

  21. PSOCOPTERA • Derived characteristics: • large, mobile head, with bulbous postclypeus • membranous wings held roof-like over abdomen

  22. PHTHIRAPTERA • Wingless (apterous) ectoparasites • Three nymphal instars • Hemimetabolous (having a simple metamorphosis, i.e. no pupa) • Mouthparts - mandibles for chewing lice, stylets for sucking lice • Tarsi 1 or 2 segmented (1 in Anoplurans) • Dorsoventally flattened head • Development of operculum in egg • Reduced labial palps • Reduced compound eyes and no ocelli • Antennae are 3 to 5 segmented and capitate • Recessed into the head in the Amblycera • Filiform in the Ischnocera (May be modified as clasping organs in the male) • Typically short in Anoplura

  24. Preservation Hemiptera: Pin adults through scutellum Immatures in ethanol Thysanoptera: Slide mount Psocoptera: Slide mount small specimens Point mound large ones Phthiraptera: Slide mount Hemiptera Suborder Heteroptera: Belostomatidae Coreidae Corixidae Gerridae Largidae Lygaeidae Miridae Naucoridae Nepidae Notonectidae Pentatomidae Reduviidae Suborder Auchenorrhyncha: Cercopidae Cicadidae Cicadellidae Fulgoridae Membracidae Suborder Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae Superfamily Coccoidea Thysanoptera Psocoptera Phthiraptera Suborder Anoplura (sucking lice) chewing lice (formerly Mallophaga)
