    Not a bug technically, an isopod.

    It’s not like “bug” is a technical term in the first place. Why not “bug”? It looks buggy to me.

      It is. Insects in the order Hemiptera are “true bugs.” Pokey mouth parts for piercing and sucking and something special about the wings, I forget what.

        You can go up to “insecta” for “bugs” in general.

        If you wanted to be nit picky/old school you could exclude all non-heteropterans from “true bugs.”
