Condylognatha or Panhemiptera is a monophyletic grouping (superorder)[2] that contains Hemiptera (true bugs) and Thysanoptera (thrips).
Condylognatha belongs to Paraneoptera, which include its sister group, lice (Psocodea).
[3][4] Hemiptera and Thysanoptera are both the sister-groups based on morphological characters, and jointly known as Condylognatha.
They range in size from 1 millimetre (0.039 in) to around 15 centimetres (5.9 in), and share a common arrangement of sucking mouthparts.
Order Thysanoptera includes 5,500 species classified into two suborders distinguished by the ovipositor.
