Neides

This article is about the genus of stiltbug. For the plural form Neides, see Neide.

The genus Neides is a small but common Old World group of stilt bugs; the name has precedence of the junior synonym name Berytus which Fabricius coined for the same taxon in 1803.^[1] It formerly included one North American species (Neides muticus), which has been removed to its own genus, Neoneides.
