An Insight into the Sialomes of Bloodsucking Heteroptera
Saliva of bloodsucking arthropods contains dozens or hundreds of proteins that affect their hosts′ mechanisms against blood loss (hemostasis) and inflammation. Because acquisition of the hematophagous habit evolved independently in several arthropod orders and at least twice within the true bugs, there is a convergent evolutionary scenario that creates

New records of two species of Pyrrhocoroidea from Vietnam (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Largidae and Pyrrhocoridae) [PDF]
This study reports one genus and two species of the superfamily Pyrrhocoroidea Amyot & Serville, 1843 (Hemiptera, Heteroptera, Pentatomomorpha) from Vietnam for the first time: Delacampius Distant, 1903 (Largidae, Physopeltinae, Physopeltini), D.

Sequences from a region of the nuclear ribosomal 18S rDNA gene of approximately 1 912 base pairs (bp) were used to generate a molecular phylogeny for the Pentatomomorpha based on 53 species representing 21 putative families.

On the Origin of the Tingidae (Insecta, Heteroptera)
ABSTRACT The hypothesis of a Gondwanian origin of the family Tingidae (Insecta, Heteroptera) has been promoted and seems to be generally accepted by specialists. However, the area of emergence and diversification of the clade, South American or Australian, is still debated and cannot be solved without integrating Vianaidinae, a subfamily considered as ...

Insects are generally associated with gut bacterial communities that benefit the hosts with respect to diet digestion, limiting resource supplementation, pathogen defense, and ecological niche expansion.

New data on karyotype, spermatogenesis and ovarian trophocyte ploidy in three aquatic bug species of the families Naucoridae, Notonectidae, and Belostomatidae (Nepomorpha, Heteroptera) [PDF]
We report the karyotype, some aspects of spermatogenesis, and ovarian trophocytes ploidy in three aquatic bug species: Ilyocoris cimicoides (Linnaeus, 1758), Notonecta glauca Linnaeus, 1758, and Diplonychus rusticus Fabricius, 1871 from previously ...

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach
Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce

Clave ilustrada para la identificación de las familias de Pentatomomorpha (hemiptera-heteroptera) de distribución neotropical. [PDF]
A key for identification of 28 Pentatomomorpha in Neotropical distribution families is presented. Figures in dorsal view of some specimens for each family and the different features mentioned are shown. A synopsis of the main references for ...

We challenged the assumption that overwintering significantly alters host microbiota composition, finding no differences between Halyomorpha halys populations sampled before and after overwintering. This microbiota stability underscores its role in the invasive pest's resilience and provides insights for ecological management strategies.
