XXIX The head is very variable in form, especially in the Homoptera,and particularly iu the rulgoridae, in which family it is inflated andproduced in a way for Avhich at present no absolute explanationcan be offered. In the Heteroptera the head is usually more orless triangular in shape, but exceptions occur in all the families.
