The Endosymbiont Consortia of Two Cixiidae Planthoppers Reveal an Ancient Symbiosis With 'Candidatus Mirabilia Symbiotica'. [PDF]
Many insects harbour ancient beneficial endosymbionts that produce essential nutrients. Two planthopper species from the Cixiidae family harbour different tripartite endosymbiont consortia, including a previously unknown and likely ancient Gammaproteobacterium in addition to Karelsulcia and Vidania.

Shape and Size Adaptations of Planthoppers Along an Altitudinal Gradient on Mount Wilhelm (Papua New Guinea). [PDF]
Mountains are an ideal context to study species community and adaptation in relation to environmental changes such as temperature. Cixidae show niche conservatism at high altitude, with conserved forewing size and shape. Conversely, size and shape variations of forewings of Achilidae and Derbidae traduce an adaptation to high altitudes.

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 ...
