Deep-level phylogeny of Cicadomorpha inferred from mitochondrial genomes sequenced by NGS [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractRecent development and advancement of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have enabled the determination of mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) at extremely efficiency. In this study, complete or partial mitogenomes for 19 cicadomorphan species and six fulgoroid species were reconstructed by using the method of high-throughput ...

Spermiogenesis in three species of cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Spermiogenesis in three species of cicadas representing one cicadettine (Monomatapa matoposa Boulard) and two cicadines (Diceroprocta biconica [Walker] and Kongota punctigera [Walker]) was investigated by light and electron microscopy.

First Record of Tortistilus wickhami (Van Duzee, 1908) (Hemiptera: Membracidae) in Vineyards of Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California, Mexico

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Tortistilus wickhami is widely distributed across North America. Previously reported from Canada to South California, it is now documented for the first time in the vineyards of Valle de Guadalupe, Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. This treehopper is of economic significance, as it is a suspected candidate for the transmission of grapevine red blotch ...

Macroecology of parental care in arthropods: higher mortality risk leads to higher benefits of offspring protection in tropical climates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The intensity of biotic interactions varies around the world, in such a way that mortality risk imposed by natural enemies is usually higher in the tropics.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Cosmoscarta dorsimacula

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Cosmoscarta dorsimacula (Hemiptera, Cicadomorpha, Cercopoidea, Cercopidae) was firstly determined. The complete genome is 15,462 bp in length.

Extending Species‐Area Relationships Into the Realm of Ecoacoustics: The Soundscape‐Area Relationship

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2024.
In this study, we expanded the principles of island biogeography to the field of ecoacoustics. We examined the relative importance of island size and isolation in predicting the spectro‐temporal richness of acoustic traits in the landscape, also known as soundscape richness.

Some remarkable new Neotropical treehoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadomorpha: Membracidae)

open access: yesZootaxa, 2008
The new Neotropical treehopper genera Smergotomia, based on S. clairae, new species, from Ecuador, and Braxtonota, based on B. enigmata, new species, from Puerto Rico are described and illustrated. Despite lacking a posterior pronotal process, Smergotomia appears to be most closely related to Smerdalea Fowler based on the forewing venation and male ...

High levels of species' extirpation in an urban environment—A case study from Berlin, Germany, covering 1700–2023

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
Our study compiled and analysed spatio‐temporal species' extirpation on a broad taxonomic coverage at the city scale. We revealed high number of extirpations, which are in the twenty‐firstcentury already comparable with previous centuries, and showed that cities might be suitable systems for studying species' extirpation processes due to their small ...

Chromosome‐level genome assembly of the aster leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilineatus) reveals the role of environment and microbial symbiosis in shaping pest insect genome evolution

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 3, April 2024.
Abstract Leafhoppers comprise over 20,000 plant‐sap feeding species, many of which are important agricultural pests. Most species rely on two ancestral bacterial symbionts, Sulcia and Nasuia, for essential nutrition lacking in their phloem and xylem plant sap diets. To understand how pest leafhopper genomes evolve and are shaped by microbial symbioses,
