Rough Stink Bug Order: Hemiptera Family: Pentatomidae Genus/Species: Brochymena species Description: The Rough Stink Bug is a common, broad shield shaped bug with five- segmented solid colored antennae. The scutellum is large. The anterior back is brown to mottled gray with a dull, roughly pebbled surface. The head is elongate and the antennae arise far in front of compound eyes. The mouthpart is sucking, a long beak which is directed on the underside toward the base of the hind legs. The side of the pronotum extends into toothlike projections. The wings are half-leathery and half-membranous, and the underwings are membranous. The Rough Stink Bug emits a foul smelling secretion from its thoracic glands when disturbed. The Rough Stink Bug differs from the exotic Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, Halyomorpha halys in that the Rough’s antennal segment is solid colored, not banded, and it has distinct teeth on the forward edge of the thorax just behind the head. Habitat: Deciduous fruit orchards, woods, isolated trees. They blend in well with the bark. Life Cycle: The female lays clusters of pearl white, barrel-shaped eggs on leaves and twigs in the spring, which she guards until they hatch. The nymphs, resembling tiny stink bugs without wings, grow slowly. The adults overwinter in crevices and under trash on the ground. There is one generation a year. Economic Importance & Management: The Rough Stink Bug is a beneficial insect. It sucks the body fluids from caterpillars and soft-bodied insects. It may be a nuisance in the fall around the home and buildings but does not cause significant problems.

Packauskas1 Abstract Forty eight species of Pentatomidae are listed as occurring in the state of Kansas, nine of these are new state records. A key to all species known from the state of Kansas is given, along with some notes on new state records. ____________________ The family Pentatomidae, comprised of mainly phytophagous and a few predaceous species, is one of the largest families of Heteroptera. Some of the phytophagous species have a wide host range and this ability may make them the most economically important family among the Heteroptera (Panizzi et al. 2000). As a group, they have been found feeding on cotton, nuts, fruits, veg- etables, legumes, and grain crops (McPherson 1982, McPherson and McPherson 2000, Panizzi et al 2000).

Household Insects of the Rocky Mountain States
Household Insects of the Rocky Mountain States Bulletin 557A January 1994 Colorado State University, University of Wyoming, Montana State University Issued in furtherance of Cooperative Extension work, Acts of May 8 and June 30, 1914, in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Milan Rewerts, interim director of Cooperative Extension, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado. Cooperative Extension programs are available to all without discrimination. No endorsement of products named is intended nor is criticism implied of products not mentioned. FOREWORD This publication provides information on the identification, general biology and management of insects associated with homes in the Rocky Mountain/High Plains region. Records from Colorado, Wyoming and Montana were used as primary reference for the species to include. Mention of more specific localities (e.g., extreme southwestern Colorado, Front Range) is provided when the insects show more restricted distribution. Line drawings are provided to assist in identification. In addition, there are several lists based on habits (e.g., flying), size, and distribution in the home. These are found in tables and appendices throughout this manual. Control strategies are the choice of the home dweller. Often simple practices can be effective, once the biology and habits of the insect are understood. Many of the insects found in homes are merely casual invaders that do not reproduce nor pose a threat to humans, stored food or furnishings. These may often originate from conditions that exist outside the dwelling. Other insects found in homes may be controlled by sanitation and household maintenance, such as altering potential breeding areas (e.g., leaky faucets, spilled food, effective screening).

Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve
Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve Arthropods are characterized by having jointed limbs and exoskeletons. They include a diverse assortment of creatures: Insects, spiders, crustaceans (crayfish, crabs, pill bugs), centipedes and millipedes among others. Column Headings Scientific Name: The phenomenal diversity of arthropods, creates numerous difficulties in the determination of species. Positive identification is often achieved only by specialists using obscure monographs to ‘key out’ a species by examining microscopic differences in anatomy. For our purposes in this survey of the fauna, classification at a lower level of resolution still yields valuable information. For instance, knowing that ant lions belong to the Family, Myrmeleontidae, allows us to quickly look them up on the Internet and be confident we are not being fooled by a common name that may also apply to some other, unrelated something. With the Family name firmly in hand, we may explore the natural history of ant lions without needing to know exactly which species we are viewing. In some instances identification is only readily available at an even higher ranking such as Class. Millipedes are in the Class Diplopoda. There are many Orders (O) of millipedes and they are not easily differentiated so this entry is best left at the rank of Class. A great deal of taxonomic reorganization has been occurring lately with advances in DNA analysis pointing out underlying connections and differences that were previously unrealized. For this reason, all other rankings aside from Family, Genus and Species have been omitted from the interior of the tables since many of these ranks are in a state of flux.

Coprophagous Feeding Behaviour by Two Species of Nymphal Pentatomid
BR. J. ENT. NAT. HIST., 26: 2013 145 COPROPHAGOUS FEEDING BEHAVIOUR BY TWO SPECIES OF NYMPHAL PENTATOMID ALEX J. RAMSAY 44 Sun Lane, Burley-in-Wharfedale, Ilkley, West Yorkshire, LS29 7JB, UK [email protected] ABSTRACT Final instar nymphs of the shieldbugs Palomena prasina (L.) and Pentatoma rufipes (L.) were observed feeding in the white part of bird droppings. This part consists mostly of uric acid, an insoluble compound rich in nitrogen, but potentially a rich source of nutrients to the nymphs if they possess the necessary metabolising endosymbiont bacteria found in other hemipteran groups. This is only the second recorded occurrence of coprophagy in nymphal Pentatomidae. A review of coprophagous feeding behaviour in the Pentatomoidea identified six species of Pentatomidae and one species of Scutelleridae. Coprophagous feeding remains unconfirmed in Cydnidae. INTRODUCTION AND OBSERVATIONS On 8th July 2007 final instar nymphs of Palomena prasina (L.) (Pentatomidae; Carpocorini) and Pentatoma rufipes (L.) (Pentatomidae: Pentatomini) were observed feeding on the white part of fresh bird droppings on wooden fence posts along a woodland margin in Wokingham, Berkshire (SU826695). In each case only a single nymph was recorded of each species exhibiting this feeding behaviour. There has been only one previous record of this behaviour recorded in the literature for species of nymphal Pentatomidae (Londt & Reavell, 1982), suggesting that such behaviour is rare or at least rarely recorded. As the white part of bird droppings consists mostly of uric acid, it is suggested that these nymphs were specifically seeking out a source of dietary uric acid in order to supplement their diet.

Since then, many more specimens have become available for study, substantial papers on regional faunas have been published, and many revisions and other taxonomic changes have taken place. As a consequence, 40% of the names from the previous Missouri state list have changed or the taxa have been removed.
