Magia [1] is a genus of Australian planthoppers in the tribe Acarnini, classified by William Lucas Distant in 1907.
Fulgoromorpha Lists on the Web [2] includes:
Saiva is a genus of Asian planthoppers, family Fulgoridae. They are colourful insects, marked boldly in red, blue, white and black, with a prominent slender stalk like structure arising on the head that points upwards or forward. The known distribution is from India, through Indo-China to Borneo.
Delphacidae is a family of planthoppers containing about 2000 species, distributed worldwide. Delphacids are separated from other "hoppers" by the prominent spur on the tibia of the hindleg.
Flatidae are a family of fulgoroid planthoppers. They are cosmopolitan in distribution and are distinguished from others in the superfamily by a combination of characters. Like all other planthoppers, they suck phloem sap of plants. Some species are known to communicate with vibrations through the plant stems. Communication may be with mates, or with ants that tend the nymphs, protecting them and gathering honeydew secretions. Adults of some species have brightly coloured forewings which are tougher and known as tegmina unlike the membranous hindwings which are used for flight. Although a few can be identified by their coloration, most species requires dissection and examination under a microscope with access to literature on already described species.
Issidae is a family of planthoppers described by Spinola in 1839, belonging to the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha superfamily Fulgoroidea.
Nogodinidae is a family of planthoppers. They have membranous wings with delicate venation and can be confused with members of other Fulgoroid families such as the Issidae and Tropiduchidae. Some authors treat it as a subfamily of the Issidae.
Lophopidae is a family of fulgoroid plant-hoppers with most species found in tropical South America and Asia.
Gergithus is a genus of tropical Asian planthoppers in the family Issidae, erected by Carl Stål in 1870. Like all planthoppers, adults feed on plant sap and are capable of escaping by leaping. The genus like other members in the tribe appears somewhat rounded and beetle-like, in some cases, with a mimetic resemblance to ladybird beetles. Species are mostly distributed in the Indomalayan Realm.
The Elicini are a tribe of planthoppers in the family Tropiduchidae. The type genus is Elica.
Aphaena is a genus of planthoppers in the sub-family Aphaeninae of Fulgoridae. Species are distributed from eastern India, Indo-China, China and Malesia.
Nilaparvata is a genus of planthoppers in the subfamily Delphacinae and tribe Delphacini Leach, 1815.
The Hemisphaeriinae are a subfamily of bugs in the family Issidae, based on the type genus Hemisphaerius. Species in 119 genera have been recorded in most continents, but the greatest diversity appears to be in South-East Asia.
The Flatinae are a subfamily of planthoppers, erected by Maximilian Spinola in 1839. Genera have been recorded from all continents except Antarctica: especially in tropical and subtropical regions.
Eurybrachys is a genus of bugs in the family Eurybrachidae. First formally named in 1834 by French entomologist Félix Édouard Guérin-Méneville, Eurybrachys is the type genus of the family Eurybrachidae. The spelling Eurybrachis, by the author, is considered an unaccepted orthographic variant. Species in this genus occur in Asia.
Pochazia is a genus of true bugs belonging to the family Ricaniidae.
Tropidocephala is a genus of planthopper bugs, typical of the tribe Tropidocephalini. Species have been recorded from Africa, Europe and Asia.
Tambinia is a genus of planthoppers (Hemiptera) in the family Tropiduchidae and typical of the tribe Tambiniini ; species are found in Australia and Southeast Asia.
The Menoscinae are a subfamily of planthoppers in the family Lophopidae erected by Leopold Melichar in 1915. Most genera are recorded from SE Asia through to Australia, but the single genus in tribe Carrioniini is Neotropical.
Lawana is a genus of planthoppers in the family Flatidae, erected by William Lucas Distant in 1906. In 1923, Leopold Melichar confirmed placement of this genus in tribe Flatini and subtribe Lawanina. Species are recorded from tropical Africa and Asia.
Neosalurnis is a genus of planthoppers in the family Flatidae, erected by William Lucas Distant in 1910. It was subsequently placed in tribe Flatini, subtribe Phyllyphantina by Metcalf (1957) Records of occurrence are currently from Vietnam and China.
Mnemosyne is a genus of planthoppers in the subfamily Cixiinae, erected by Carl Stål in 1866; it is the only extant type genus of the tribe Mnemosynini. Species are recorded from: South America, Africa, the Indian subcontinent, SE Asia and Australia.
