Waorania is the only genus of issid planthopper in the subtribe Waoraniina. [1] [2] The first two species in the genus were discovered in the forests of Ecuador. [3]
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. Some of their key features are a frons ("face") that is longer than wide and a reticulate wing venation. They are less than 2 cm long. The antenna arises well below the eye, has the base clubbed and flagellum unsegmented. The lateral ocelli are outside the margins of the face. The face has carinae on the edge. On the hind leg, the second tarsal segment has an apical spine arising from it. The tibia of the hind leg also has spines towards the tip. An important family character is found in the shape of the male genital structure, a style that is longer than broad. Most members of this family are forest species.
Lycorma is a genus of planthoppers native to Asia. The first species within the genus was described by Frederick William Hope in 1843 and the genus was formally established by Carl Stål in 1863.
Stobaera caldwelli is a species of delphacid planthopper in the family Delphacidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
The Elicini are a tribe of planthoppers in the family Tropiduchidae. The type genus is Elica.
Stobaera is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are about 14 described species in Stobaera.
Achilidae is a family of planthoppers, sometimes called "achilids" in the order Hemiptera. There are at least 520 described species in Achilidae.
Aplos is a genus of issid planthopper with only one species, Aplos simplex. It can be found in most of the Eastern United States and is now found as an invasive species in Northern Italy and Austria. Aplos simplex was formerly listed under the genus Thionia.
Saccharosydne saccharivora, is a species of delphacid planthopper in the family Delphacidae. It is found in the Caribbean, Central America, North America, Oceania, and South America.
Prokelisia is a genus of delphacid planthoppers in the family Delphacidae. There are about five described species in Prokelisia.
Tropiduchinae is a subfamily of tropiduchid planthoppers in the family Tropiduchidae.
Elicinae is a subfamily of tropiduchid planthoppers in the family Tropiduchidae, with Elica the type genus.
Acanaloniidae is a family of planthoppers. It is sometimes treated as a subfamily of Issidae.
Lycorma meliae is a planthopper species endemic to Taiwan, with multiple, dramatically different color morphs depending on the life stage. The species was described by Masayo Kato in Taiwan in 1929, and is the only member of its genus confirmed to be native to the island. In 1929, a specimen of L. meliae was originally described as a separate species, L. olivacea, also by Kato. These two taxon names were declared synonymous in 2023. L. meliae undergoes four instar stages before achieving adulthood and specimen generally only survive till the winter.
Cheiloceps is a genus of planthoppers in the family Issidae. Cheiloceps was described as a genus by Uhler, 1895, downgraded by Fennah, 1955 to a subgenus of Thionia; then restored to genus status by Gnezdilov, 2018.
Fowlerium is a genus of planthoppers in the family Issidae. They are native to the Southwestern United States and Mexico.
Fowlerium acutum is a species of planthopper in the family Issidae. They are native to central Texas and Oklahoma.
Diceroptera is a genus of issid planthopper with one species, Diceroptera humboldti. It can be found in Venezuela.
Oronoqua is a genus of issid planthopper in the family Issidae and can be found in the northern Neotropics. The difference in fore and hind wing venations between species of Oronoqua and the other genera in Thioniini led to a subtribe Oronoquina being erected.
Abolloptera is a genus of planthopper with only one species, Abolloptera bistriata. It is found in Texas and northeastern Mexico.
