(the hemiptera or s are an ‘order’ of ‘insects’ comprising some 50,000 to 80,000 species of groups such as the…)

‘cicadas’

‘aphids’

‘plant-hoppers’

‘leaf-hoppers’

‘shield bugs’

.

(they range in size from 1 mm (0.04 in) to around 15 cm (6 in), and share a common arrangement of ‘sucking mouthparts’)

(the name “true bugs” is sometimes limited to the suborder ‘heteroptera’)

(many insects commonly known as “bugs” belong to other orders; for example, the lovebug is a fly, while the ‘may bug’ and ‘ladybug’ are ‘beetles’)

(most hemipterans feed on plants, using their sucking and piercing mouthparts to extract ‘plant sap’)

(some are ‘parasitic’ while others are ‘predators’ that feed on other insects or ‘small invertebrates’)

(they live in a wide variety of ‘habitats’, generally ‘terrestrial’, though some species are adapted to life in or on the surface of ‘fresh water’)

(‘hemipterans’ are ‘hemimetabolous’, with ‘young nymphs’ that somewhat resemble ‘adults’)

(many ‘aphids’ are capable of ‘parthenogenesis’, producing young from ‘unfertilized eggs’; this helps them to reproduce extremely rapidly in ‘favorable conditions’)

(‘humans’ have interacted with the ‘hemiptera’ for ‘millennia’)

(some species (including many ‘aphids’) are important ‘agricultural pests’, damaging crops by the direct action of ‘sucking sap’, but also harming them indirectly by being the ‘vectors’ of ‘serious viral diseases’)

(other species have been used for ‘biological control’ of ‘insect pests’)

(‘hemipterans’ have been cultivated for the ‘extraction’ of the dyestuff ‘cochineal’ (also known as ‘carmine’) and for ‘shellac’)

(the ‘bed bug’ is a ‘persistent parasite’ of ‘humans’)

.

(‘cicadas’ have been used as ‘food’, and have appeared in ‘literature’ from the iliad in ‘ancient greece’)
