Karyotype diversity among predatory Reduviidae (Heteroptera) [PDF]

open access: yesComparative Cytogenetics, 2014
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.

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Trapping sylvatic Triatominae (Reduviidae) in hollow trees [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1999
This work reports the trial of a very simple trapping system (comprising small plastic bottles (9 X 6 cm) covered with double­ coated adhesive tape and containing a mouse as bait ) to collect all instars of triatomines in hollow trees, a favourable ecotope for many triatomine species including T. sordida, T. guasayana, and T. infestans 'dark morphs'

Full‐length transcriptome profiling of true bug mitochondrial genomes reveals the unique transcriptional regulation during insect evolution

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The mitogenome was transcribed into complete primary polycistrons on both strands. The heteropteran mitochondrial transcription termination factor (HmTTF) functions as a bidirectional attenuator rather than a terminator, and co‐evolution of HmTTF and the binding sites was observed.

Laboratory rearing of Sycanus annulicornis (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) on two species of prey: Differences in its biology and efficiency as a predator of the nettle caterpillar pest Setothosea asigna (Lepidoptera: Limacodidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2018
Setothosea asigna van Eecke is a dominant defoliator pest in oil palm plantations. To control this pest, a generalist predatory bug, Sycanus annulicornis Dohrn, was used as it is easy to rear on several different species of prey.

open access: yes, 2012
The genus Sinnamarynus Maldonado Capriles & Bérenger, 1996 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae), originally placed into the subfamily Reduviinae, is transferred to the subfamily Peiratinae.
