Family COREID^E. 



Oblong, moderately stout species of medium or rather large size, flat- 

 tened above, the common squash-bug being a fair representative of the 

 family. The hind legs are sometimes abnormally developed, the femora 

 large or clubbed or the tibise with leaf -like expansions; sometimes the 

 edges of the abdomen are raised at the sides so that the wings lie in a 

 depression. The odors in this family are especially well developed, more 

 penetrating and more offensive than in any other. Most of them are 

 vegetable feeders, and some are of economic importance.
