Seventy-two species of Blennocampinae in 21 genera and six tribes
are known from the Nearctic region. The adults and known larvae of
all species and genera are keyed, described and illistrated. A
definition of the subfamily, a review of previous work, a table of
host-plant associations, and a discussion of...
The black grass bug genus Irbisia Reuter was revised. Over 18,000
specimens were examined and information concerning the biology, host
plant and distributional relationships of the species was compiled.
In addition to external characters, the male claspers and vesica, and
the female dorsal libiate plate of the bursa copulatrix and...
The genus Lopidea Uhler is revised for America north of
Mexico. The relationship of Lopidea to other orthotyline
genera is discussed and it is proposed that the genus
Ilnacora Reuter is the sister group of Lopidea.
Forty-eight species of Lopidea are recognized in North
America, one of which is described...
Leptarctia californiae (Walker) was studied on clear and semi-forested southern slopes in the Coast Range Mountains of Benton County, Oregon. The spring of 1965 had an unusually long warm period (21 days) resulting in adult emergence approximately 25 days earlier than in the cooler spring of 1966. Peak flight activity...
The western Nearctic species of the genus Phytocoris Fallen were
taxonomically revised. Over 15,000 specimens were examined.
Information concerning host plant associations and distributions was
compiled and summarized for use by future researchers. External
morphological features and characters of the male genitalia were used
to distinguish species. The genital tubercles...
