Kanaima is a genus of froghoppers endemic to Brazil & Argentina belonging to the family Cercopidae. [1]
Four species formerly enclosed in Kanaima was transferred to Mahanarva Distant, 1909. [4]
The family Fulgoridae is a large group of hemipteran insects, especially abundant and diverse in the tropics, containing over 125 genera worldwide. They are mostly of moderate to large size, many with a superficial resemblance to Lepidoptera due to their brilliant and varied coloration. Various genera and species are sometimes referred to as lanternflies or lanthorn flies, though they do not emit light.
Pomponia is a genus of cicadas from Asia. A group of species previously placed in Pomponia, containing the largest cicada species found on earth, have recently been moved to Megapomponia. However, the remaining species still form a very heterogeneous group and Duffels and Hayashi (2006) mentioned that several species should probably be transferred to genera like Terpnosia and Leptosemia.
Pyrops is a genus of planthoppers that occur primarily in southeast Asia, containing about 70 species. They are fairly large insects, with much of the length due to an elongated, upcurving, snout-like projection of the head. The wings are generally brightly patterned in contrasting colors, and they are popular among collectors.
The subfamily Aphaeninae is a group of hemipteran insects, especially abundant and diverse in the tropics. They belong to the Fulgoridae (fulgorids), though they are not among the better-known members of that family that are called "lantern bugs" or "lanternflies". In 2009, the first molecular analysis of the Fulgoridae challenged the existing structure of eight currently recognized subfamilies and eleven tribes.
Tanna is a genus of cicadas from Southeast Asia and East Asia. In 2010 Lee and Hill placed Tanna in the subtribe Leptopsaltriina, which is now in the tribe Leptopsaltriini together with a number of related genera that also possess abdominal tubercles, including Leptopsaltria, Maua, Nabalua, Purana, and others.
Cercopidae are the largest family of Cercopoidea, a xylem-feeding insect group, commonly called froghoppers or spittlebugs. They belong to the hemipteran suborder Auchenorrhyncha.
Platylomia is a genus of cicadas from Southeast Asia.
Zanna is a genus of tropical planthoppers found in Asia and Africa, now belonging to the monotypic subfamily Zanninae.
Leptataspis is a genus of froghoppers belonging to the family Cercopidae.
Choconta circulata is a species of froghopper in the genus Choconta, of the family of Cercopidae. The species has been named formerly Sphenorhina circulata (Lallemand), Tomaspis circulata (Fennah), and originally Cercopis circulatus. The species has been described first by French entomologist Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville in 1844.
Aphrophora is a genus of spittlebugs in the family Aphrophoridae. There are at least 80 described species in Aphrophora.
Prosapia is a genus of froghoppers in the family Cercopidae. There are about six described species in Prosapia. The genus is distributed in North and Central America, including the Caribbean.
Flatormenis is a genus of flatid planthoppers in the family Flatidae. There are about 15 described species in Flatormenis.
Poeciloterpa is a genus of froghoppers in the family Cercopidae. Endemic to the Philippines, there are about 13 described species in Poeciloterpa.
Enchenopa is a genus of treehoppers in the family Membracidae. There are more than 50 described species in Enchenopa.
Atracis is a genus of flatid planthopper with around 60 species distributed in the Oriental Realm and tropical Africa.
Delphax is a genus of mostly European planthoppers, typical of the family Delphacidae.
Callitettix is a genus of bugs in the family Cercopidae ("froghoppers") in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha and the monotypic subfamily Callitettixinae. The recorded distribution for species is in mainland Asia: from India to southern China and Indochina.
Cosmoscarta is a genus of froghoppers found in the Indo-Malayan region. Many of the species are boldly marked in black and red or yellow. A few species are of economic importance as they can cause injury to plants under cultivation.
Flatida is a genus of planthoppers in the family Flatidae and tribe Phromniini. Much of the literature on this genus refers to the name Phromnia, which has recently been recognized to be a junior synonym of Flatida. Species from the genus are found in tropical Africa and Asia.
