Homologies of the head of Membracoidea based on nymphal morphology with notes on other groups of Auchenorrhyncha (Hemiptera) [PDF]
The ground plan and comparative morphology of the nymphal head of Membracoidea are presented with particular emphasis on the position of the clypeus, frons, epistomal suture, and ecdysial line.

Anchored Hybrid Enrichment-Based Phylogenomics of Leafhoppers and Treehoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadomorpha: Membracoidea) [PDF]
AbstractA data set comprising DNA sequences from 388 loci and >99,000 aligned nucleotide positions, generated using anchored hybrid enrichment, was used to estimate relationships among 138 leafhoppers and treehoppers representative of all major lineages of Membracoidea, the most diverse superfamily of hemipteran insects. Phylogenetic analysis of

Characterization and phylogenetic implications of newly sequenced mitogenomes of Five Mileewa and Processina species from China (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Mileewinae) [PDF]
To accumulate evidence of the phylogeny of Mileewinae and the relationships among Mileewa, Processina, and Ujna genera, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genomes of four Mileewa spp., namely, Mileewa mira, Mileewa lamellata, Mileewa sharpa, and ...

Characterization of the Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of Two Species with Preliminary Investigation on Phylogenetic Status of Zyginellini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae) [PDF]
To explore the characteristics of mitogenomes and reveal phylogenetic relationships of the tribes of Zyginellini and Typhlocybini in Typhlocybinae, mitogenomes of two species of the Zyginellini, Parazyginella tiani and Limassolla sp., were sequenced ...

Distributional patterns and possible origins of the tribes and genera of Coelidiinae (Homoptera, Membracoidea, Cicadellidae) [PDF]
Leafhoppers are well known biological indicators of zoogeographical regions owing, in part, to their phytodependency, high host plant specificity and relatively low vagility. In this connection, we discuss distributional patterns and possible zoogeographical origins of nine constituent tribes and their genera of the pantropical subfamily Coelidiinae ...

Some Unusual Neotropical Neocoelidiinae with a Redefinition of the Subfamily (Hemiptera: Membracoidea: Cicadellidae) [PDF]
Diagnostic characters for the New World leafhopper subfamily Neocoelidiinae are reviewed. Krocodona Kramer (with new synonym Krocobella Kramer), Krocozzota Kramer, and the fossil genus Krocarites Dietrich and Vega, previously placed in Nirvaninae based on their depressed, strongly produced heads, are transferred to Neocoelidiinae (new placements) based

Protocol for Membracidae inventory (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Membracoidea): what are the ideal collection methods for the Atlantic Forest? [PDF]
Abstract: Membracidae are phytophagous insects that present different types of behavior, requiring a specific protocol for fast and efficient collection. This article evaluates the best methods for sampling these insects in Atlantic Forest areas. The protocol was applied in four areas of the Atlantic Forest in Paraíba state, Brazil, and involved a team

Mapuchea pinoi sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Membracoidea: Myerslopiidae): especie fósil de un lecho de turba de Monteverde, región de Los Lagos, Chile [PDF]
Resumen: Se describe Mapuchea pinoi sp. nov. (Myerslopiidae) a partir de material fósil de Monte Verde, a orillas de la cala de Chinchihuapi, región de Los Lagos, Chile, en base a un tegmen izquierdo, con una data de 13.429 años AP. A pesar de ser una especie descrita en base a material fósil, se cree que esta especie podría no encontrarse extinta ...
