Notapictinus

Notapictinus is a genus of flat bugs in the family Aradidae, comprising approximately 12 described species. Members of this genus share the dorsoventrally flattened body form characteristic of aradid bugs, an adaptation associated with their life under bark or in other tight spaces. The genus belongs to the true bugs (Hemiptera), a diverse order defined by piercing-sucking mouthparts. Specific details about the biology and ecology of Notapictinus remain poorly documented in published literature.
