Notice that the word \u201cBug\u201d is a separate word for the three true bugs (Hemiptera), but are attached to another word in the isopods \u2013 much in the same way that we write drone fly, hover fly, etc., for true flies, but dragonfly, butterfly, stonefly, etc. for insects that are not true flies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
