Anisoscelini
Anisoscelini is a tribe of leaf-footed bugs in the family Coreidae. It was formerly spelled Anisoscelidini, but the tribal name spelling was incorrectly formed. Description Anisoscelini species are elongated with flattened tibia of the legs in the shape of a leaf. The antennae have the 2 and 3 segments flattened (''Chondrocera'' sp.) or some species having the 2 and 3 segments terete, or cylindrical, slightly tapering at both ends, circular in cross section, and smooth-surfaced. The length of the first segment of the antennae is as long as the length of the anterior margin of the eye to the tarsus (''Narnia'' sp.). Distribution The tribe consists of species found mostly in the Americas and especially neotropical environments; however, genera such as ''Leptoglossus'' may also be represented in Europe (mostly introductions) and eastern Asia. Genera The ''Coreoidea Species File'' includes: # ''Anisoscelis'' Latreille, 1829 # '' Baldus'' Stål, 1868 # '' Bellamynacoris'' Brai ...

Leptoglossus Occidentalis MHNT Profil
''Leptoglossus'' is a genus of true bugs in the leaf-footed bug family and the tribe Anisoscelini. Species are distributed throughout the Americas, with some records in eastern & southern Asia and Europe (mostly introductions). Several species are economic pests of agricultural crops. Like members of some other genera in the family, these bugs have leaflike dilations of the hind tibia. Several species are of economic importance, and one species, ''L. chilensis'', has been reported to bite humans. Species The current list of described species and subspecies includes:Schaefer, C. W., R. J. Packauskas, and K. Bu. 2008. A new species of ''Leptoglossus'' (Hemiptera: Coreidae: Coreinae: Anisoscelini) from Brazil.

Anisoscelis Affinis
''Anisoscelis affinis'', the flag-footed bug, is a species of leaf-footed bug in the family Coreidae. It is found in Central America and Mexico. It was first described by English entomologist John O. Westwood John Obadiah Westwood (22 December 1805 – 2 January 1893) was an English entomologist and archaeologist also noted for his artistic talents. He published several illustrated works on insects and antiquities. He was among the first entomologist ... in 1840 as an insect found in Mexico, with no additional location information.' In '' Introduction to Entomology'', part of ''The Naturalist's Library'' by James Duncan, the species is described as similar, but distinct from, '' Anisoscelis hymenipherus,'' and native to Mexico: "A third species, undescribed, closely allied to the latter, but smaller, with the thorax and hemelytra entirely fulvous red, and the legs entirely pale ochreous, is contained in the collection of the Jardin des Plantes, and to which the specific name ...

Coreidae
Coreidae is a large family of predominantly sap-sucking insects in the Hemipteran suborder Heteroptera. The name "Coreidae" derives from the genus ''Coreus'', which derives from the Ancient Greek () meaning bedbug. As a family, the Coreidae are cosmopolitan, but most of the species are tropical or subtropical. Common names and significance The common names of the Coreidae vary regionally. Leaf-footed bug refers to leaf-like expansions on the legs of some species, generally on the hind tibiae. In North America, the pest status of species such as ''Anasa tristis'' on squash plants and other cucurbits gave rise to the name squash bugs. The Coreidae are called twig-wilters or tip-wilters in parts of Africa and Australia because many species feed on young twigs, injecting enzymes that macerate the tissues of the growing tips and cause them to wilt abruptly. Morphology and appearance The Coreidae commonly are oval-shaped, with antennae composed of four segments, numerous veins in ...
