Entomology
A large family of predominantly sap-suckling insects in the Hemipteran suborder Heteroptera. The name “Coreidae” derives from the genus Coreus, which derives from the Ancient Greek (koris) meaning bedbug. As a family, the Coreidae are cosmopolitan, but most of the species are tropical or subtropical.
