Of the 16 nominal species of Miridae described by the Japanese authors in 1906-1917, 13 are represented by type specimens in the collection of S.

Biodiversity Data Journal 9: e62011. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.9.e62011 Abstract Background Dokdo, a group of islands near the East Coast of South Korea, comprises 89 small islands. These volcanic islands were created by an eruption that also led to the formation of the Ulleungdo Islands (located in the East Sea), which are approximately 87.525 km away from Dokdo. Dokdo is important for geopolitical reasons; however, because of certain barriers to investigation, such as weather and time constraints, knowledge of its insect fauna is limited compared to that of Ulleungdo. Until 2017, insect fauna on Dokdo included 10 orders, 74 families, 165 species and 23 undetermined species; subsequently, from 2018 to 2019, we discovered 23 previously unrecorded species and three undetermined species via an insect survey.

Size variation in Mirid bugs is from 1 to 15 mm. In term of food behavior, Plant bugs are Phytophagous, Carnivorous, and Omnivorous. This family comprising eight subfamilies which among them subfamilies Mirinae and Orthotylinae are the most diverse. The Mirinae is the largest subfamily of Miridae with 6 tribe and more than 4000 described species (Cassis & Schuh, 2012). This subfamily is defined by pretarsal and genitalic characters (Schwartz, 2008).

  • The Miridae (Hemiptera : Heteroptera) Associated with Noble
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Michael Cooper for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology presented in January 1981 Title: The Miridae (Hemiptera:Heteroptera) Associated with Noble Fir, Abies procera Rehd. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: /- Dr. John D. Lattin The Miridae, or plant bugs, associated with noble fir, Abies procera Rehd., are discussed. Thirty six species of the Miridae were collected from noble fir. Twenty five of these species are considered only "visitors" to noble fir. The study does not deal with these species. Noble fir is a host of the eleven other species: Deraeocoris incertus Knight, Deraeocoris piceicola Knight, Dichrooscytus sp. A, Orthotylus sp. A, Paradacerla formicina (Parshley), Phytocoris neglectus Knight, Phytocoris sp. A, Pinalitus solivagus (Van Duzee), Plagiognathus sp. A and Psallus spp. A and B. Fifth instar larvae and the adults of these eleven species were examined and described. The plant bugs were collected from the noble fir foliage every seven to fourteen days from early May to mid-October,1979 from Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range and the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. Distributional data were added from collecting trips in Oregon on Grass Mountain and around Mt. Hood and in Washington state at White Pass and Stevens Pass. The larvae and adults of the eleven noble fir mirid species were observed in a growth chamber. Feeding observations were recorded for eight species. The larvae and adults were examined for external signs of insect parasitism. Sticky traps placed on the boles of noble fir trees on Marys Peak collected very few mirids, suggestingthat the mirids remain on the foliage and branches.

  • The Heteroptera Fauna of Korshage, Zealand, 11. a Comparison July-August of the Fauna of the Herb Stratum
    Entomologiske Meddelelser 37 (1969) 289 The Heteroptera fauna of Korshage, Zealand, 11. A comparison July-August of the fauna of the herb stratum. By Jens Bocher I. Introduction. My previous paper described the late summer aspect of the Hete­ ropterous fauna of Korshage (Bocher 1967). In the Addendum of that paper I briefly mentioned the present investigation, which is attempting a comparison, confined to the herb stratum, between the bug faunas of July and August 1966. Concerning situation, physiography and plant communities of the study area, see Bocher 1967. There is, however, a single cor­ rection. In the present paper the term "Carex dune grassland" is restricted to the very uniform, strongly Carex arenaria-dominated vegetation in the north-western part of the area (cf. Bocher 1967, pp. 43, 55, 56). The remainder of what was formerly denoted "Carex dune grassland" is now refered to as "Grey dune grass- . land", as it is always situated at the margins of the typical grey dune. A survey of the division into plant communities is presented in Table 1; the numbering differs a little from that used in 1967. 11. Methods etc. The method of collection was sweeping. The unit sample was 50 strokes, but this is not strictly comparable to the samples from 1963 and 1965 because a somewhat smaller net (28 cm diameter) was used in 1966. Just as in the previous investigation (where this was not pointed out) the main guide for sampling was that every plant community should be equally well represented, relative both to the area it is covering and to its diversity.

    TOMOHIDE YASUNAGA Hokkaido University of Education, Sapporo THE PLANT BUG TRIBE ORTHOTYLINI IN JAPAN (HETEROPTERA: MIRIDAE: ORTHOTYLINAE)* Yasunaga, T., 1999. The plant bug tribe Orthotylini in Japan (Heteroptera: Miridae: Orthotylinae). – Tijdschrift voor Entomologie 142: 143-183, figs. 1-155. [ISSN 0040-7496]. Published 22 September 1999. The plant bug tribe Orthotylini of Japan is revised: 33 species are recognized in 11 genera. Two new genera, Malacocorisella and Pseudoloxopidea, and a new subgenus of the genus Orthotylus, Yamatorthotylus, are described. Thirteen new species are described: Orthotylus (O.) fuscipennis, O. (O.) japonicus, O. (Yamatorthotylus) xanthopoda, Blepharidopterus striatus, Dryophilocoris lu- cidus, D. miyamotoi, Zanchius quercicola, Z. nakatanii, Z. ryukyuensis, Z. takahashii, Z. gigan- toculus, Malacocorisella endoi, and Pseudoloxopidea pinicola. Other known taxa are diagnosed and/or redescribed, and three species, Orthotylus (O.) kurilensis Kerzhner, O. (Melanotrichus) parvulus Reuter and Pseudoloxops imperatorius Distant, are reported from Japan for the first time. The female of Mecomma japonica Miyamoto is also documented. Brief notes on biology are given for 26 species. Photographs of 23 species and a key are also provided.
