Recilia is a genus of typical leafhoppers from the family Cicadellidae, recorded mostly from Africa, the West Palaearctic and New Zealand. [1] As of Webb & Viraktamath (2009), the vast majority of former species, including the zig-zag leafhopper of rice R. dorsalis , are now placed in the genus Maiestas . Before this, the genus was sometimes treated as a subgenus of Deltocephalus , of the same tribe. [2] [3] [1] [4]

Species

The World Auchenorrhyncha Database [2] includes:

  1. Recilia coronifer (Marshall, 1866)
  2. Recilia elongatoocellata (Motschulsky, 1859)
  3. Recilia indica Rao, 1989
  4. Recilia jenjouristi Zakhvatkin, 1935
