Fine-Structural Morphology of the Mouthparts of the Polyphagous Invasive Planthopper, Ricania speculum (Walker) (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Ricaniidae) [PDF]
Mouthparts are the crucial sensory and feeding organs associated with food detection and feeding in insects. The Asian ricaniid planthopper Ricania speculum (Walker), recently introduced into Europe, can cause severe economic damage by sucking the phloem

The complete mitochondrial genome of Ricania speculum (Walker, 1851) (Hemiptera: Ricaniidae): investigation of intraspecific variations on mitochondrial genome [PDF]
We have determined a mitochondrial genome of Ricania speculum (Walker, 1851) collected in Jeollabuk-do, Republic of Korea. The circular mitogenome of R. speculum is 15,530 bp long which is shorter than that of the previous mitogenome of R.

Descriptions of the Adult Genitalia and Immatures of the Asian PlanthopperRicania speculum(Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea: Ricaniidae) Recently Introduced to Italy [PDF]
The ricaniid planthopper Ricania speculum (Walker) (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea) was recently introduced to Italy, apparently from southeast Asia. This species has the potential to become a significant agricultural pest, as it feeds on > 60 species of plants, some of which are of economic importance. Here we describe and illustrate the adult male and female
