Jadera haematoloma is a bug from the subfamily Serinethinae within the family of glass wing bugs (Rhopalidae).
features
The bugs occur both fully winged (macropter) and with receding wings (brachypter, especially the females). The former are 9.5–13.5 mm long, the latter measure 7–8 mm. The black elongated oval bugs have a red border on each side of the pronotum. The eyes are also red. The red upper side of the abdomen is covered by the black hemielytres in the macropter individuals , while it is clearly visible in the brachyptera individuals. In addition to the red-black bugs, there are two other color morphs (in the colors yellow-black and orange-black). In English, the bugs are also called red-shouldered bugs (" red-shouldered bugs"). The nymphs have a red abdomen and eyes and are otherwise black.

Its primary host plants include the balloon vine ( Cardiospermum halicacabum ), Cardiospermum grandiflorum , Cardiospermum corindum , Koelreuteria bipinnata , Koelreuteria elegans , the bladder ash ( Koelreuteria paniculata ), the washnut tree ( Sapachycarpa. Br ) and Serjorossi .
Koelreuteria paniculata is called the Goldenrain Tree in English . Another common name for bedbugs is derived from this: Goldenrain Tree Bugs . The bugs suck on the seeds and fruits of various trees. They can be found on a number of other plants such as ash maple , cedar tree , fig and marshmallow .
