Free amino acids composition of six Heteropteran insects belonging to aquatic and terrestral habitate has been observed and it is suggested that the distribution of proline is related to the habitate of these insects. Proline probably plays a role in the retention/conservation of the water in terrestrial insects.
已观察了六种分别属于水生和陆生栖息地的半翅目昆虫的游离氨基酸组成，结果表明脯氨酸的分布与这些昆虫的栖息地有关。脯氨酸可能在陆生昆虫的水分保留/保存中发挥作用。
