Nesosydne is a genus of true bugs belonging to the family Delphacidae. [1]
The species of this genus are found in Hawaiian Islands. [1]
Species: [1]
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.
Ricaniidae is a family of planthopper insects, containing over 40 genera and 400 species worldwide. The highest diversity is in tropical Africa and Asia and in Australia, with a few species occurring in the Palearctic. It is one of the smaller families in the planthopper superfamily Fulgoroidea.
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.
Caliscelidae is a family of planthoppers, sap-sucking insects that belong to the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha and superfamily Fulgoroidea. They are somewhat anomalous and have often been included within the family Issidae. Studies made in 2013 of the phylogeny of the Issidae and other groups using molecular techniques support the treatment of the group as a separate family. Sexual dimorphism can be marked. Some members of the family are called piglet bugs due to the shape of their snout. A particularly aberrant genus described in 2011 from India, Formiscurra, has males that resemble ants.
Kinnaridae is a family of fulgoroid planthoppers. This is a small family with a little more than 20 genera and about a 100 species. The family was erected by Muir in 1925 and most members are found in the Oriental and Neotropical regions and only a few in the Nearctic and Palaearctic regions.
Aloha is a genus of planthopper named by George Willis Kirkaldy in 1904. As of 2018, ten species are recognized:
Abas unipunctata is a species of achilid planthopper in the family Achilidae. It is the only known species in the genus Abas. The genus and species were described by Ronald Gordon Fennah in 1950. It was described on the basis of a single female collected at Senahú, Alta Verapaz in Guatemala. The genus is distinguished from similar taxa in the tribe Plectoderini by the shape of the edges of the frons and pronotal disk.
Pintalia is a genus of cixiid planthoppers in the family Cixiidae. There are at least 50 described species in Pintalia.
Sogatella is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are more than 20 described species in Sogatella.
Stenocranus is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are more than 70 described species in Stenocranus.
Toya is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are at least 40 described species in Toya.
Syndelphax is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are about 19 described species in Syndelphax.
Perkinsiella is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are more than 30 described species in Perkinsiella.
Pyrgoteles is an unplaced genus of bugs in the family Fulgoridae: species can be found in Africa.
Nilaparvata is a genus of bugs in the subfamily Delphacinae and tribe Delphacini Leach, 1815.
The Tettigometridae are a family of Fulgoromorpha (planthoppers), with a species distribution from: Europe, Africa, Asia through to west Malesia.
Hypochthonella is a monotypic genus of Fulgoromorpha (planthoppers), with the single species, Hypochthonella caeca discovered from Zimbabwe. This species is the only known representative of the monotypic family HypochthonellidaeChina & Fennah, 1952.
The Gengidae are a family of Fulgoromorpha (planthoppers), with species found in South Africa.
The Achilixiidae are a family of Fulgoromorpha (planthoppers); species may be found in the neotropical and Asian regions.
