Little is known about the Halobates around the coasts of China. This study is based on samples collected from Bohai Sea, East China Sea and South China Sea.
Three species of oceanic Halobates, H. micans, H. sericeus and H. germanus, were collected from the East China Sea, but H. germanus was found in the South China Sea samples. Samples from Bohai Sea consisted of land insects blown out to sea. Adults as well as nymphs of all three Halobates species were collected. The biology and adaptations of these unique oceanic insects are discussed.
