Uhler-1876
Guides
Aphelonema
Aphelonema is a genus of planthoppers in the family Caliscelidae, first described by Uhler in 1876. Members of this genus belong to the tribe Peltonotellini within the subfamily Caliscelinae. These insects are part of the diverse Fulgoromorpha infraorder, which contains numerous economically and ecologically significant planthopper groups. The genus is poorly documented in public sources, with limited observational records available.
Aradus ampliatus
Aradus ampliatus is a species of flat bug (family Aradidae) described by Uhler in 1876. Like other members of the genus Aradus, it belongs to a group of true bugs commonly known as flat bugs due to their dorsoventrally flattened body form. The genus Aradus includes both extant and fossil species, with 14 species described from Baltic amber inclusions dating to the Eocene. Extant species in this genus are typically associated with dead wood habitats.
Aradus debilis
Aradus debilis is a species of flat bug in the family Aradidae, described by Uhler in 1876. It is distributed across North America. As a member of the flat bug family, it likely shares the characteristic dorsoventrally flattened body form typical of Aradidae, though specific details about its biology remain poorly documented in available sources.
Chlorochroa congrua
Chlorochroa congrua is a species of stink bug in the family Pentatomidae, described by Uhler in 1876. It belongs to the genus Chlorochroa, which includes several North American stink bug species. The species has been documented as prey for the predatory wasp Astata unicolor in Oregon, where it was observed being paralyzed and carried to the wasp's nest as provisions for its offspring. Beyond this predation record and basic taxonomic placement, detailed biological information about C. congrua remains limited in the available literature.
Clastoptera delicata
spittlebug
Clastoptera delicata is a species of spittlebug in the family Clastopteridae, first described by Uhler in 1876. It is found in western North America, with records from Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, and Oregon. Like other spittlebugs, its nymphs produce characteristic frothy masses of spittle on host plants. The species has been documented as prey for the crabronid wasp Clitemnestra bipunctata, which paralyzes and provisions its nests with adult spittlebugs.
Ochterus americanus
velvety shore bug
Ochterus americanus is a species of velvety shore bug in the family Ochteridae, first described by Uhler in 1876. It is found in North America, with records from the United States including Vermont. Like other members of the Ochteridae, this species is associated with moist shoreline habitats where it inhabits the interface between land and water.
