The genus Systelloderes Blanchard, 1852 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Enicocephalomorpha: Enicocephalidae), has a nearly cosmopolitan distribution, with the greatest species richness being found in humid tropical and subtropical forests, but species are also present in humid microhabitats of temperate and arid zones (Wygodzinsky Schmidt 1991). In the Eastern Hemisphere species of Systelloderes occur in continental Africa (22 species, see Villiers 1969; 1976; Maldonado 1988; Baňař 2008); Madagascar (Systelloders milloti Villiers, 1952); New Zealand (see Štys 1970, 2002) and New Caledonia (Systelloders loebli Štys Baňař, 2007). Two species (S.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The calcaneus bone is the largest tarsal bone of a complex shape, the restoration of which after fracturing, often caused by a high-energy injury, is critical. The top priority in treating these fractures is to correctly asses the condition of the surrounding soft tissues that may be further excessively traumatized by inappropriate timing, surgical approach or technique. Even when adhering to all the rules and guidelines, complications in surgical wound healing have been described in up to 16-33% cases when the extended lateral approach was used.

The internal and external anatomy of the posterior metathoracic region, pregenital abdomen, and associated nervous system of the heteropteran infraorder Enicocephalomorpha are thoroughly described, using an array of state-of-the art techniques. Based on morphology, it is hypothesised which modes of communication these insects use. This study is based primarily on an undescribed species of Cocles Bergroth, 1905 (Enicocephalidae) and another undescribed species of Lomagostus Villiers, 1958 (Aenictopecheidae), but additional representatives of the infraorder are also examined.

Heteroptera are among the most diverse hemimetabolous insects. Seven infraorders have been recognized within this suborder of Hemiptera. Apart from the well-established sister-group relationship between Cimicomorpha and Pentatomomorpha (= Terheteroptera), the two terminal lineages, the relationships among the other five infraorders are still controversial, of which three (Gerromorpha, Nepomorpha and Leptopodomorpha) are intimately connected to aquatic environments.
