1- Heterotoma planicornis(Common Flathorn Plant Bug)
Heterotoma is a of plant bugs in the Miridae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera). Members are commonly known as flathorn plant bugs. The genus includes such as Heterotoma merioptera, which has been recorded from Germany and may be expanding its range in association with climate warming. As mirid bugs, they possess the characteristic typical of the family.
