What is a cryptopteryx? What does a cryptoptera look like?

Cryptoptera is a class of biological pests that mainly harm fruit trees, vegetables, ornamental plants and other crops. Their harmful manifestations are mainly as follows:

1.Root damage: The larvae of Cryptoptera move in the soil and feed on the roots of plants. They bite the roots and secrete venom to cause root rot, which seriously affects the absorption, transport and fixation functions of plants, resulting in poor growth, chlorosis, death and even death.

2.Aerial damage: Adult Cryptoptera insects will suck the leaves, shoots and flower buds of plants, resulting in a decrease in plant leaf area and impaired photosynthesis ability, which in turn affects the growth and development of plants.

3.Spreading diseases: Some cryptoptera have the ability to transmit plant diseases. They feed on disease-infested plants and then healthy plants, thus spreading pathogens to healthy plants and accelerating the spread and speed of the disease.

4.Economic losses: The harm of cryptoptera can lead to reduced crop yield and quality, bringing serious economic losses to agricultural production.

In addition, in order to control the damage of cryptopterus, farmers need to take control measures and invest a lot of human, material and financial resources, which will also increase the cost of agricultural production.

Therefore, Cryptoptera is one of the common pests in agricultural production, which has a great impact on crop yield and quality. In order to reduce the harm of cryptopteryx, it is necessary to take scientific and reasonable control measures, such as rational use of pesticides, strengthening field management, and protecting natural enemies.

Cryptoptera. Most are elongated, small, parallel on both sides, with a black head, wings, ventral tail, and orange on the chest, abdomen, and feet, resembling large ants, usually less than 3 mm (or 1 8 inches) in size, and up to 3 cm in length. Most species have short, thick elytra, about as long as they are wide, and their hindwings are well developed and can quickly be folded under the elytra during take-off, and folded with the help of the abdomen and feet after flight, and re-hidden under the elytra.

Most of the abdominal segments are exposed.

Habits. Cryptoptera has a wide distribution, almost all over the world, and prefers humid environments. Adults are generally winged and can fly across the sea and away from land, but the insects themselves are not very dispersed, and they only do this to avoid harm. Cryptoptera inhabits a wide variety of habitats.

Cryptoptera can be found in forests or forest floors, grasslands, loose spaces under the skin of lodging pines, rotten fruits, blooming flowers, decaying trees, plants drifting on the banks and lakes, dung, carrion, nests of vertebrates, etc. There are also some cryptoptera that live in special habitats, some parasitize in mushrooms, and ryssota parasitizes on snails.

Most of them are slender and small, usually less than 3 mm (or 1 8 inches) in size, and the largest is no more than a centimeter (1 inch). The elytra are short and thick, with well-developed hind wings, which can quickly fall under the elytra when flying, and after flying, they are folded with the help of the abdomen and feet and re-hidden under the elytra. When frightened, raise your abdomen and shoot an unpleasant mist at your enemies.

The larvae are wingless and resemble adults.

Cryptoptera breeds in damp places, such as freshwater lakes, ditches, ponds, floodplains, weeds, rice, corn and other crop fields. Active during the day, often crawling on the stems and leaves of crops or weeds, and running fast when frightened. Feeds on small insects, plant pollen, decaying organic matter.

It has obvious phototropism (especially for fluorescence), and the stronger the light, the more bugs it will attract.

Cryptoptera precautions.

Pay attention to the protection of the affected area, in addition to not scratching excessively with your hands, but also to avoid trauma to the patient, to avoid being bitten by cryptoptera or other mosquitoes for the second time, otherwise it will lead to aggravation of the condition and affect recovery.

Pay attention to keep the living environment dry and cool, the room is humid and stuffy will lead to more serious symptoms of itching in the affected area, and the diet also needs to be light, and you can't eat seafood hair, otherwise it will lead to inflammation and even purulent infection in the dermatitis area.

It's not a cryptoptera, it's a frog beetle, commonly known as an "ear clip worm", also known as a scissor insect. Omnivorous, who eat everything, are generally found in bathrooms and kitchens.

It likes to be nocturnal, and often hides under soil, stones, dead branches, and garbage during the day. Sex likes damp and dark, many species are accustomed to nocturnal walking, and have the habit of phototaxis flying.

A cryptoptera is a bug whose wings cannot be used for flight. They are often mistaken for moths or butterflies. However, unlike these insects, their forewings are covered with hindwings, and their wings often seem to retract completely when at rest.

Bugs similar to cryptoptera should be sniffing rabbits of the rodent family. The sniffing rabbit worm is a very small insect, about 2 to 5 mm long. They have a body similar to that of cryptopteras, and their wings vibrate for a very short period of time to help them move while reproducing and searching for food.

Sniffing rabbit bugs have very small heads with a bright incision to allow them to collect food. Their color may vary depending on the food, but most sniffing rabbits are gray or brown. Sniffing rabbit bugs have a short life cycle, only a few weeks, and most of the time is spent searching for food and breeding.

Sniffers are similar to cryptopteras, but their wings can vibrate instead of just covering their bodies. In addition, sniffing rabbit bugs are smaller, and their heads are also more tiny. Sniffing rabbits are easy to ignore because they have small non-digital tremors and are similar in color and shape to their surroundings.

However, the study of sniffing rabbits is essential to understanding ecosystems and biodiversity. They are considered to be very important species because they are in the middle and lower part of the food chain and help in the digestion of decaying plant matter. In addition, they are also used to control the populations of other insects.

Overall, while sniffing rabbits are similar to cryptoptera, they have distinct differences. Understanding the different insect species is an important way to understand the natural environment around us. This also helps us to better protect these precious creatures and maintain an ecological balance. <>
