Illustration Description
This illustration includes a small number of Hemiptera or true bugs. They are an order of insects comprising over 80,000 species. They range in size from 1 mm to around 15 cm, and share a common arrangement of sucking mouthparts. These particular insects were illustrated because they needed to be inhabitants of Africa’s river systems.
