A new minute pirate bug of the genus Scoloposcelis (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Anthocoridae) from West Malaysia.
Scoloposcelis seidaii sp. nov. is described from the Malay Peninsula based on a single specimen collected under the bark of a decaying tree. This discovery represents the first distribution record of the genus Scoloposcelis from Malaysia. Habitus photographs and diagnosis of S. parallela (Motschulsky, 1863) are provided for comparison with S. seidaii.
متن کاملIdentity of Two Sympatric Species of Orius (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Anthocoridae)
The minute pirate bugs, Orius insidiosus (Say) and Orius pumilio (Champion) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Anthocoridae), are closely related species known to be sympatric in north Florida. Here, male and female genitalia, DNA sequences, and the effects of within- and between-species pairings on egg production and egg development were examined to develop a better understanding of the relationship bet...
متن کاملA comparison of external and internal maxilla and mandible morphology of water bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Nepomorpha).
This paper describes the file of the mandible, the apices of the maxillae, the rupturing device on the maxillae, and the internal structures of the mouthparts in sixty representatives of the nepomorphan families (Heteroptera), using scanning electron microscopy. Eight morphologically distinct types of files are identified on the mandibular tip, as well as six distinct types of the maxillary end...
متن کاملMolecular Species Delimitation and Morphology of Aquatic and Sub-Aquatic Bugs (Heteroptera) in Cameroon
Aquatic and semi-aquatic bugs (Heteroptera) represent a remarkable diversity and a resurging interest has been given to documenting at the species level these insects inhabiting Cameroon in Central Africa due to their potential implication in the transmission of the bacterium Mycobacterium ulcerans, the causal agent of Buruli ulcer, an emerging human disease. A survey was carried out over two y...
متن کاملKaryotype diversity among predatory Reduviidae (Heteroptera)
Species of infraorder Cimicomorpha of Heteroptera exhibit holokinetic chromosomes with inverted meiosis for sex chromosomes and high variation in chromosome number. The family Reduviidae, which belongs to this infraorder, is also recognized by high variability of heterochromatic bands and chromosome location of 18S rDNA loci. We studied here five species of Reduviidae (Harpactorinae) with preda...
