Blissus is a genus in the true bug family Blissidae,^[2] commonly called chinch bugs in North America. The review by Slater (1979) listed 27 species.^[3] The species B. leucopterus,^[4] B. occiduus^[5] and B. insularis^[6] are important pests of cereal crops and turf grasses in their different ranges in the United States.
