The Red Cotton Bug

By looking at the picture, of course you already know one of these insects. Indonesian people say as Bapak Pucung while for residents who are in the eastern part or precisely at the tip of Sumatra, namely the province of Aceh said as Kameeng Rideer and in other areas of course have different names with the same meaning.

For Indonesian citizens, especially children born in the 70s have made it as a toy to satisfy their hearts. In general, the children at that time made it as a pet that was placed in one of the container-shaped miniature houses together with a special artificial environment.

Thus, if the area is different, then various ways of describing language in terms of naming so that there are different nicknames. Sometimes some people name it very much in accordance with the state of an object, it also differs in its labeling, especially in terms of naming objects such as animals so people often name them in non-verbal language. But the goals are the same.
So in order to unify the vision, the experts describe it in scientific language with the aim of uniting all the naming in one important object.

This one insect is one type of insect that is widespread throughout the world but the largest population is in the territory of Indonesia let alone the province of Aceh, this is evident that in every land covered with small plants or in a large yard, of course there are insects on this one.

Likewise, in other regions included in Indonesia's territory the population is still large. This insect often develops in tropical temperatures and there are many host plants, in general it will always develop its civilization in areas that are overgrown with wild plants and also seasonal plants such as pumpkin plants, cucumbers, and others.

In general, this type of insect has several species, one of the other species living in groups and mating techniques also in groups. However, Mr. Pucung this type does not live in groups, he will always live independently and if it involves marriage he will look for a partner who is not in groups like other Pucung.

He also lays eggs like insects that always put him under hidden leaves, this is done to fool other predators who continue to interfere with their lives. Sometimes they store it in the stems of the first plants in their holes, so the eggs are safe and continue to grow like today.

Thus a brief description of the types of Red Cotton Bug insects that we often encounter around us. Thank you very much.
