Neomelicharia is a genus of planthoppers belonging to the family Flatidae. [1]
The species of this genus are found in Indonesia. [1]
Melolontha is a genus of beetles in the family Scarabaeidae. The European cockchafers belong to this genus.
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.
Theretra is a genus of moths in the family Sphingidae. The genus was established by Jacob Hübner in 1819.
Cercopidae are the largest family of Cercopoidea, a xylem-feeding insect group, commonly called froghoppers or spittlebugs. They belong to the hemipteran suborder Auchenorrhyncha.
Acanalonia is a genus of planthopper in the fulgorid family Acanaloniidae.
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.
Oryxa is a genus of planthoppers in the hemipteran family Flatidae. They live on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra, and in Malaysia.
Zanna is a genus of tropical planthoppers found in Asia and Africa. They are mostly grey with black speckling with a long snout with some folds on the surface. Although usually placed in the family Fulgoridae, molecular studies question this placement suggesting the genus may belong instead in Dictyopharidae.
Bythopsyrna is a genus of planthoppers belonging to the family Flatidae.
Aphrophora is a genus of spittlebugs in the family Aphrophoridae. There are at least 80 described species in Aphrophora.
Eupteryx is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae.
Limotettix is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae. There are at least 70 described species in Limotettix. Limotettix is the only genus in the tribe Limotettigini of the subfamily Deltocephalinae. A previously included genus, Frigartus, is now considered to be a junior synonym of Limotettix.
Thionia is a genus of issid planthoppers in the family Issidae. There are at least 70 described species in Thionia.
Nephotettix is a genus of planthoppers in the subfamily Deltocephalinae and tribe Chiasmini. Species are mostly found in Asia, although two are from Africa.
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.
Atracis is a genus of flatid planthopper with around 60 species distributed in the Oriental Realm and tropical Africa.
Euricania is a genus of true bugs belonging to the family Ricaniidae.
Flatomorpha is a genus of planthoppers in the family Flatidae. It was first described by Leopold Melichar in 1901.
Flatida is a genus of planthoppers in the family Flatidae and tribe Phromniini. Species from the genus are found in tropical Africa and Asia.
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.
