The family Lygaeidae in India is represented by nine subfamilies, namely Lygaeinae and Orsillinae (milk-weed bugs), Cyminae and Blissinae (chinch bugs). Geocorinae (big-eyed bugs), Heterogastrinae, Artheneinae and Pachygronthinae (ground bugs) and Rhyparochrominae (seed bugs or milk-weed bugs or chinch bugs). These bugs are small to medium sized, oval or elongated in shape, ranging from 4-20 mm in length, usually brown, red or black in colour, sometimes brightly coloured. This group is recognized by having antennae 4-segmented, a pair of ocelli present between the compound eyes, rostrum four segmented, bucculae well developed, membrane with few irregular veins (4-5 veins) arising from a transverse basal vein and absence of cuneus in hemelytra, front part of their forewings slightly sclerotised and the remaining portion membranous and hind wings always membranous.Full Text

Reuter (1910) first established the Coreoidea as a superfamily of the Heteroptera and Leston et al. (1954) placed the Coreoidea within infraorder Pentatomomorpha. The superfamily includes fi ve families: Alydidae (broad headed bugs), Coreidae (Leaf-footed bugs or Squash bugs), Rhopalidae (Scentless plant bugs), Stenocephalidae (confi ned to Eastern Hemisphere) and Hyocephalidae (endemic to Australia), comprising of 2376 species from the world (Henry 2009). Of these, about 200 species under 60 genera are so far known from India including 78 endemic species.Full Text

The pentatomids are commonly known as “shield bugs” or “stink bugs” as their bodies are usually covered by a shield shaped scutellum covering more than half of the abdomen, tibia with weak or no spine, 5 segmented antennae which gives its family name and most of them emit an unpleasant odour, offensive in nature, produced by a pair of glands in the thorax and is released through openings in the metathorax.Full Text

The family Reduviidae is the largest family of predaceous terrestrial hemiptera and a few are blood suckers. Some of them are pathogenic and transmit various diseases to man and animals. Members of this family are commonly known as “Assassin bugs”. These are small to large, robust or elongated, somewhat flattened, smooth, hairy or spiny bugs, which may vary in size ranging from 2 to 40 mm.Full Text
