Boisea
''Boisea'' is the least speciose genus of the soapberry bug subfamily. Members of this genus are found in North America, India, and Africa.〔Göllner-Scheiding, U. (1983): General-Katalog der Familie Rhopalidae (Heteroptera). Mitt. Zool. Mus. Berlin 59, 37-189.〕 Unlike other serinethine genera, the distribution of ''Boisea'' is very patchy; it is speculated that its highly vicariant range is relictual of what was previously a much vaster, continuous range.〔Göllner-Scheiding, U. (1992): Material of the rhopalid genera Leptocoris Hahn, 1833, and Boisea Kirkaldy, 1910 (Heteroptera) from the collection of the Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum at Leiden, The Netherlands. Zoologische Mededelingen 66, 277-282.〕 The most well-known species of this genus are the North American boxelder bugs (western ''Boisea rubrolineata'' and eastern ''Boisea trivittata'') and African ''Boisea fulcrata''. The US species mainly feed on the seeds of Maple trees and are occasional nuisance pests around homes. In North America, ''Boisea trivittata'' is native to most of the continental United States, excluding Washington, Oregon, and California.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://soapberrybug.org/01_cms/details.asp?ID=57 )〕 ''Boisea rubrolineata'' is native to western continental United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://soapberrybug.org/01_cms/details.asp?ID=56 )〕 Exocrene secretions of these bugs have also been extensively studied. == References ==
