Abstract
Bassian, Eyrean, relict, and recent Oriental elements of the lygaeid fauna of southwest Western Australia are discussed. Host plant relationships of Lygaeidae of this area are summarised. An account is given of wing polymorphism in Australian lygaeids, and a classification of the major types of fore wings is proposed.Keywords
