Cyrtocapsus is a genus of plant bugs in the family Miridae, commonly known as mirid bugs or leaf bugs. These bugs often have a dull or earth-toned coloration, which can help them blend in with plant foliage. Cyrtocapsus bugs, like other members of the Miridae family, feed on plant material. They use their piercing-sucking mouthparts to extract sap from plants, including leaves, stems, and sometimes flowers or fruits.
