Smilia is a genus of treehoppers belonging to the tribe Smiliini in the subfamily Smiliinae. [1] There are at least two described species in the genus. [2]
The froghoppers, or the superfamily Cercopoidea, are a group of hemipteran insects in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha. Adults are capable of jumping many times their height and length, giving the group their common name, but many species are best known for their plant-sucking nymphs which produce foam shelters, and are referred to as "spittlebugs".
Coleophora is a very large genus of moths of the family Coleophoridae. It contains some 1,350 described species. The genus is represented on all continents, but the majority are found in the Nearctic and Palaearctic regions. Many authors have tried splitting the genus into numerous smaller ones, but most of these have not become widely accepted.
The Eulophidae is a large family of hymenopteran insects, with over 4,300 described species in some 300 genera. The family includes the genus Elasmus, which used to be treated as a separate family, "Elasmidae", and is now treated as a subfamily of Eulophidae. These minute insects are challenging to study, as they deteriorate rapidly after death unless extreme care is taken, making identification of most museum specimens difficult. The larvae of very few species feed on plants, but the majority are primary parasitoids on a huge range of arthropods at all stages of development. They are exceptional in that they are one of two hymenopteran families with some species that are known to parasitize thrips. Eulophids are found throughout the world in virtually all habitats.
The buffalo treehopper is a species of treehopper belonging to the subfamily Membracinae. It is sometimes classified as Ceresa bisonia.
Enchenopa binotata is a complex of multiple species found mostly in Eastern North America, but have also been reported in Central America. They are commonly referred to as treehoppers and are sap-feeding insects. The species in the complex look similar to each other in morphology, but are identified as different species by the host plant they occupy.
Aetalionidae are a family of treehoppers in the superfamily Membracoidea. Aetalionidae are somewhat like Membracidae in that they have one to three rows of short spines on the hind tibia but differ in having the front femur fused to the trochanter and the scutellum is completely exposed. The females have finger-like protrusions on the genital capsule. The family is mostly Neotropical. The subfamily Biturritiinae is Neotropical while the subfamily Aetalioninae has a Neotropical genus Aetalion and the sole Old World representative genus Darthula with a single species Darthula hardwickii.
Smiliinae is a subfamily of treehoppers in the family Membracidae. These are bugs and include about 100 genera in 10 tribes.
Kaikaia is a genus of treehopper endemic to Nicaragua, containing the single species Kaikaia gaga. It was described in 2020 by Brendan Morris, a Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. It entered the news when it was revealed that the insect was named after Lady Gaga.
Atymna is a genus of treehoppers in the family Membracidae.
Hebetica sylviae is a member of the treehopper family Membracidae. It is found in the eastern United States, first discovered in Murray, Kentucky, with a second sighting in Atlanta, Georgia.
Telamona agrandata is a species of treehopper in the genus Telamona. It is found in the central and eastern United States.
Carynota mera is a species of treehopper. It belongs to the genus Carynota in the family Membracidae. It was first described by Thomas Say in 1830 as Membracis mera.
Cyrtolobus tuberosus is a species of treehopper belonging to the genus Cyrtolobus. It was first described by Léon Fairmaire in 1846 as Thelia tuberosa. It is the largest treehopper in the Cyrtolobus genus, 9-10mm for females and 7-8mm for males
Vanduzea triguttata, also known as the three-spotted treehopper, is a species of treehopper belonging to the genus Vanduzea. It was first described by the German entomologist Ernst-Gerhard Burmeister in 1836.
Grandolobus is a genus of treehoppers in the subfamily Smiliinae.
Bajiilata is a genus of treehoppers belonging to the tribe Amastrlni in the subfamily Smillinae. It is monotypic, being represented by the single species, Bajulata bajuIa.
Idioderma is a genus of treehoppers belonging to the tribe Amastrini.
Sayiana is a genus of planthoppers belonging to the subfamily Otiocerinae.
Smilia camelus, also known as the camel treehopper, is a species of treehopper first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1803.
Smilia fasciata is a species of treehopper belonging to the family Membracidae. It was first described by Charles Jean-Baptiste Amyot and Jean Guillaume Audinet-Serville in 1843.
