The complete mitochondrial genome of Urochela quadrinotata Reuter was sequenced and analyzed. This represents the first sequence completed for an insect in the family Urostylididae. The genome is 16585 bp in size and contains 35 genes (including 13 protein-coding genes, 20 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNAs and a control region) with an A+T content of 75.4%. Two tRNA genes, tRNATle and tRNAGln, are not detected in this genome. The gene order is similar to that most commonly found in insects. All tRNAs possess the typical clover-leaf structure, except tRNASer(AGN), in which the dihydrouridine (DHU) arm forms a simple loop. The secondary structure of rrnL consists of six structural domains and 43 helices, and the rrnS includes three structural domains and 27 helices. An obvious feature of the control region is the presence of 1652 bp long tandem repeat sequences comprising 16 tandem repeat units.
金绿宽盾蝽Poecilocoris lewisi Distant在北京1年1代,以5龄若虫在侧柏(Platycladus orientalis Franco)附近的落叶和石块下越冬,翌年4月上中旬陆续从越冬处爬出,取食侧柏嫩叶。5月中旬5龄若虫开始羽化,6月初为羽化高峰期,6月中下旬羽化期结束,5月到8月为成虫期,7月底到8月中旬交配产卵,8、9月份若虫由1龄发育至5龄,9月中下旬为5龄若虫高峰期,11月5龄若虫开始转移越冬。
