In the Heteroptera, the hinder portion of the head is prolonged into a 
neck of a variable length, though in Notonecta and Corisa this is so short 
as to allow of little or no separate motion. In the Homoptera^ there is no 
neck, and the head is truncated behind, and closely affixed to the thorax, 
rarely possessing more than a vertical motion.
