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.

gollark: Also, did you fix the bit which was in the first person?
gollark: Yes, I suppose that the other cube interactions are mostly related to the cube in some way.
gollark: Well, maybe after "caress the cube" you could get "translate the cube", and if you do that it then beeps ominously and you are teleported to the osmarks.net server room.
gollark: Oh, I see.
gollark: The one which takes you to the sand, or the one with the void you get dehydrated in?
