Comparative Mitogenomics of Andini (Hemiptera: Cixiidae) Reveals Rapid Radiation, Clarifies Relationships, and Supports Taxonomic Revision Within the Tribe. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial genomes from nine species representing three genera of the planthopper tribe Andini (Hemiptera: Cixiidae) are sequenced and analyzed, providing the first mitogenomic data for this group. The mitogenomes range from 15,415 to 15,902 bp and contain 37 typical mitochondrial genes and an A + T‐rich region, with A + T content between ...

Molecular phylogeny of Cercopidae (Hemiptera, Cercopoidea)
Abstract With 175 described genera and 1556 described species, Family Cercopidae is currently divided into two subfamilies: the paraphyletic Cercopinae and the monophyletic Ischnorhininae. This study, with emphasis on the family Cercopidae, is in line with the extensive work of Cryan and Svenson which is the first phylogenetic study testing the ...
