	Herbert Barker Hungerford Herbert Barker Hungerford (30 August 1885 – 13 May 1963) was an American entomologist and professor at the University of Kansas who specialized in the taxonomy, systematics and ecology of aquatic bugs in the families Corixidae and Notonectidae. Hungerford was born in Mahaska, Kansas to Artemus Manwarring and Bertha Estelle Hungerford (born Barker). He went to the Emporia State University, Kansas State Normal School at Emporia receiving an A.B. degree in 1911 and an A.M. in 1913. He was a teacher at the University of Kansas from 1911 and received a Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1918. In 1928 he visited Europe, examining the type specimens of water bugs at various collections. He became a head of the department of entomology in 1924 and was also posted as the State Entomologist for Kansas. During his lifetime he made extensive collections of the aquatic bugs and published numerous descriptions and research papers in entomology. He is buried at Oak Hill Cemetery in Lawrence, Kansa ...

picture info	Corixidae Corixidae is a family of aquatic insects in the order Hemiptera. They are found worldwide in virtually any freshwater habitat and a few species live in saline water. There are about 500 known species worldwide, in 55 genera, including the genus '' Sigara''. Members of the Corixidae are commonly known as water boatmen, a term that is sometimes used in the United Kingdom for ''Notonecta glauca'', an insect of a different family, Notonectidae. ''Corixa punctata'' is the "lesser water boatman". Morphology and ecology Corixidae generally have a long flattened body ranging from long. Many have extremely fine dark brown or black striations marking the wings. They tend to have four long rear legs and two short front ones. The forelegs are covered with hairs and shaped like oars, hence the name "water boatman". Their four hindmost legs have scoop- or oar-shaped tarsi to aid swimming. They also have a triangular head with short, triangular mouthparts. Corixidae dwell in slow rivers and p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

picture info	Insects Described In 1928 Insects (from Latin ') are pancrustacean hexapod invertebrates of the class Insecta. They are the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Insects have a chitinous exoskeleton, a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes and one pair of antennae. Their blood is not totally contained in vessels; some circulates in an open cavity known as the haemocoel. Insects are the most diverse group of animals; they include more than a million described species and represent more than half of all known living organisms. The total number of extant species is estimated at between six and ten million; In: potentially over 90% of the animal life forms on Earth are insects. Insects may be found in nearly all environments, although only a small number of species reside in the oceans, which are dominated by another arthropod group, crustaceans, which recent research has indicated insects are nested within. Nearly all insects hatch from eggs. Insect ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
