Host‐Symbiont Interactions for Potentially Managing Heteropteran Pests
Insects in the suborder Heteroptera, the so‐called true bugs, include over 40,000 species worldwide. This insect group includes many important agricultural pests and disease vectors, which often have bacterial symbionts associated with them. Some symbionts have coevolved with their hosts to the extent that host fitness is compromised with the removal ...

Dinidor mactabilis (Perty, 1833): first record of Dinidoridae (Hemiptera: Pentatomoidea) in the state of São Paulo, Brazil [PDF]
Species of Dinidoridae in Brazil are currently known only from five localities, which has been attributed in the literature to the lack of field collections. We report the first record of Dinidor mactabilis (Perty, 1833) in the state of São Paulo, Brazil,

Farmland ecotones support high parasitoid diversity, despite lower arthropod richness compared to semi‐natural habitats. Farmland ecotones support high pentatomoid bug abundance, while pentatomoid parasitoids were equally abundant and diverse in both ecotones.

Diverse strategies for vertical symbiont transmission among subsocial stinkbugs. [PDF]
Sociality may affect symbiosis and vice versa. Many plant-sucking stinkbugs harbor mutualistic bacterial symbionts in the midgut. In the superfamily Pentatomoidea, adult females excrete symbiont-containing materials from the anus, which their offspring ...

Why so many Hemiptera invasions?
Abstract Aim The Hemiptera is the fifth‐largest insect order but among non‐native insect species is approximately tied with the Coleoptera as the most species‐rich insect order (Hemiptera comprise 20% more species than in world fauna). This over‐representation may result from high propagule pressure or from high species invasiveness.
