Observations on the Biology and Anatomy of Myerslopiidae (Hemiptera, Membracoidea) [PDF]
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2015 Adults and nymphs of Mapuchea chilensis (Nielson), from the poorly known family Myerslopiidae, were collected from the litter horizon of temperate forests and shrub bogs in southern Chile.

Mitogenomic phylogeny of Typhlocybinae (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) reveals homoplasy in tribal diagnostic morphological traits [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 The subfamily Typhlocybinae is a ubiquitous, highly diverse group of mostly tiny, delicate leafhoppers. The tribal classification has long been controversial and phylogenetic methods have only recently begun to test the phylogenetic status and ...

Superfamily Membracoidea (Homoptera: Auchenorrhyncha). II. Cladistic analysis and conclusions [PDF]
Systematic Entomology, 1993 Abstract. Homologies among traditional morphological characters in the Membracoidea ( sensu lato ) are reassessed and the phylogenetic relationships among higher membracoid taxa are explored, incorporating new morphological evidence from nymphs and adults.

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genomes of Maiestas dorsalis and Japananus hyalinus (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and comparison with other Membracoidea [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractOnly six mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) have been previously published for Cicadellidae, the largest family of Hemiptera. This study provides complete, annotated mitogenomes of two additional cicadellid, species Maiestas dorsalis and Japananus hyalinus, and the first comparative mitogenome analysis across the superfamily Membracoidea.

Characterization, Comparison of Four New Mitogenomes of Centrotinae (Hemiptera: Membracidae) and Phylogenetic Implications Supports New Synonymy [PDF]
Life, 2022 To explore the phylogenetic relationships of the subfamily Centrotinae from the mitochondrial genome data, four complete mitogenomes (Anchon lineatus, Anchon yunnanensis, Gargara genistae and Tricentrus longivalvulatus) were sequenced and analyzed.

Characterization of Two Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of Ledrinae (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and Phylogenetic Analysis [PDF]
Insects, 2020 Mitochondrial genomes are widely used for investigations into phylogeny, phylogeography, and population genetics. More than 70 mitogenomes have been sequenced for the diverse hemipteran superfamily Membracoidea, but only one partial and two complete ...

Diversity and genomics of bacteriome-associated symbionts in treehopper Darthula hardwickii (Hemiptera: Aetalionidae) and implications of their nutritional functions [PDF]
Applied and Environmental MicrobiologySymbionts play important roles in insect nutritional ecology, and the phylogenies of some vertically transmitted symbionts mirror the host phylogeny. Here we report the diversity, distribution, transmission, and potential functions of symbionts harbored ...

Males of Dalbulus maidis Attract Females Through Volatile Compounds with Potential Pheromone Function: A Tool for Pest Management [PDF]
InsectsInsects use chemical compounds to communicate with conspecifics and other organisms. The corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) (DeLong & Wolcott), is an important pest in Brazilian maize crops due to its role as a vector of ...
