lol i looked it up
freaky

They are not all true plant feeders, and very few of them occur in sufficient numbers to become important crop enemies. Some of them habitually prey on other insects, and I have seen Camptobrochis grandis sucking the eggs of the imported elm-leaf beetle (Galerucella luteola), while Mr. Heidemann states that Lopidea media Say once alighted on the back of his hand, and that (with a true scientific interest) he watched it pierce the skin and suck his blood for some minutes. A common species in the east, Oncognathus binotatus Fabr., frequents the heads of timothy grass. Fulvius anthocoroides Uhl. is found commonly on lichens on old stumps. Lygus pratensis, known as the "tarnished plant bug", is present in all flower and vegetable gardens, and causes what is called the "buttoning" of strawberries. The natural egg place of this common insect is not known, but the rest of its life has been well worked out by Woodworth, although there is probably one more molt than he has observed, i.e., five instead of four. Halticus uhleri Giard, known as the "garden flea-hopper", is common in gardens and is injurious to flowers and vegetables.
