Today We Go To School About Bugs

Posted by admin under: Main Feb 09

Since Teresa Boardman is addicted to our Saturday Bugs Undressed feature she proposed months and months ago, I thought I would get serious and educate you this week.

This page displays the twelve Hemiptera records currently available within the Entophiles database. Although the name bug has become loosley applied to most small insect-like creatures, Hemipterans are the only insects correctly identified as bugs. Members of the Order Hemiptera are characterized by sucking mouthparts that originate from the tips of their head. Their forewings are also differentiated with a thickened base and membranous tip.

Aren’t you smart now.
