Rhyparochromidae (seed bug)

Insecta - Hemiptera - Rhyparochromidae

Taxonomy
Rhyparochromides was named by Amyot and Audinet-Serville (1843). It is extant. Its type is Rhyparochromus.

It was reranked as the tribe Rhyparochromini by Statz and Wagner (1950); it was reranked as the subfamily Rhyparochrominae by Ortuño and Arillo (1997); it was corrected as Rhyparochromidae by Scudder (1890), Henry and Adamski (1998) and Cassis and Schuh (2010).

It was assigned to Pentatomomorpha by Scudder (1890); to Aphaninae by Statz and Wagner (1950); to Lygaeidae by Ortuño and Arillo (1997); and to Lygaeoidea by Henry and Adamski (1998) and Cassis and Schuh (2010).
