Bugs have fascinated me ever since I was a child, this video was what got me to actually start learning about and appreciating insects, thank you Eric!

It's a headache while studying for a test

@@silverflake2 It is so for you, not every one

@@silverflake2 It's a good headache however, it is so interesting, and it only gets harder from here (as an entomology student) enjoy the insect orders it's the family identification that can really get ya! And then the whole anatomy and internal systems and such :)) GOOD LUCK U CAN DO IT

unsure about inclusion of mantids in Orthoptera. its bounces between its own (Mantodea) and with cockroaches and termites in super order or order dictyoptera

[@Sinflair]

My prof rn is teaching that mantids are in mantodea. They are predatory compared to the other two.

[@kaefer0815]

Heteroptera are called like that, because the front part of their wings are hardened, like the elytra of beetles, and the back part of the wings are membranous.

[@ClairowCottrill]

aren't heteropterans subfamily of hemiptera? and beetles are coleopterans?

Mantids are Mantodea, not the same as Orthoptera.

[@leonardrono7009]

Understood

What do you call that orange bug on hemiptera order?

[@scottstevens7253]

Hemi- = half Hetero- = different In the insect description of the forewings these two terms are one in the same, describing the forewings as being 'half' solid and 'half' membranous... Okay good so far except it seems redundant... When you throw homo- (same) into the mix, it gets confusing since the forewings are either entirely [homo]membranous (like in cicada) or entirely [homo]solid (like in a leafhopper)... I'm not sure how the sub order homoptera gets grouped in under hemiptera since their forewings contrast the meaning of the term hemi (half)... Would it make sense to just replace hemiptera with the greek word for 'piercing-sucking mouthpart since both heteroptetans and homopterams both share this trait? (Also homopteran have since been subdivided but it doesn't change much as far as grouping a cicada under the order hemi- goes)

[@scottstevens7253]

Hemiptera in the 'old school' sense gets broken down into hetero and homo... Your description of hemi meaning 'half' seems to describe well the overlapp in wings of hetero, but in the picture of the cicada (subclass homo), there is no overlap of the forewings, but instead they come together like a tent.. Idk, not trying to confuse anyone, just saying

dawg I'm not even in ur class I just wanna know about bugs my bad

[@whokilledthesunv4768]

Coleoptera comes from greek, not latin! Otherwise, perfect explanation, thank you ☝️😽
