treehoppers
membracidae latin

Individual treehoppers usually live for only a few months, but they belong to a lineage that is at least 40 million years old.

The diversity of treehoppers has been rather little researched, and their systematic arrangement is tentative.

The hunters would be after a-alli today, the small treehoppers of Karpla's last hunt.

During the day, P. apicalis will attack these ants, preventing them from tending the treehoppers.

Centrotus is a genus of 'treehoppers' belonging to the family Membracidae.

Ball is known for his contributions to the knowledge of the leafhoppers, treehoppers, froghoppers, and other related insects.

The closely related species, Parachartergus fraternus also tends treehoppers.

Treehoppers mimic thorns to prevent predators from spotting them.

Chemical alarm systems are best developed in aphids and treehoppers (family Membracidae) among the nonsocial groups.

Planthoppers, psyllids, or treehoppers are the suspected carriers.

These 'treehoppers' are polyphagous, feeding on plant juices, which they take by their specially built, piercing-sucking mouth parts.

Both adult and immature buffalo treehoppers feed upon sap using specialized mouthparts suited for this purpose.

Even geckos form mutualistic relations with treehoppers, with whom they communicate by small vibrations of the abdomen.

It seems three main lineages can be distinguished; the Endoiastinae are the most ancient treehoppers, still somewhat resembling cicadas.

This includes aphids, mealybugs, leafhoppers and treehoppers.

Auchenorrhyncha contains the cicadas, leafhoppers, treehoppers, planthoppers, and froghoppers.

Strepsipterans are parasitic in planthoppers, leafhoppers, treehoppers, froghoppers, bees, and other insects.

Ceresa, commonly known as buffalo treehoppers, is a genus of treehoppers.

To favor development, the area of infection must have a high population of insect vectors (planthoppers, psyllids, or treehoppers) for continuous, successful transmission.

The Homoptera species most commonly eaten is aphids, although cicadas, treehoppers, leafhoppers, and psyllids are also frequent prey.

The Cicadomorpha is the infraorder of the Hemiptera which contains the cicadas, leafhoppers, treehoppers, and spittlebugs.

Membracidae (Nicomiidae, treehoppers)

Buffalo treehoppers are a bright green color and have a somewhat triangular shape that helps camouflage them so as to resemble thorns or a twiggy protuberance.

The Darninae, Heteronotinae, Membracinae and Smiliinae contain the most apomorphic treehoppers.

They are omnivorous, primarily eating insects and other invertebrates such as leafhoppers, treehoppers, aphids, scale insects, and caterpillars.

Centrotus is a genus of 'treehoppers' belonging to the family Membracidae.

The larvae prey on Coccidae and Membracidae species.

The adult often has a long, free and spine-like process originating at the scutellum and is thus superficially similar to the Membracidae.

Lydie Arnaud described several new Membracidae.

A Treehopper (a member of the family Membracidae, a group of insects related to the cicadas and the leafhoppers)

Umbonia crassicornis is a common and widespread member of the family Membracidae, and one of numerous species colloquially referred to as thorn bugs.

Treehoppers: Aetalionidae, Melizoderidae, and Membracidae (Hemiptera)

Homoptera: Membracidae, Cercopidae, Jassidae & Heteroptera: Appendix (initially published in two parts)

They feed on Homoptera species belonging to the families Cicadellidae and Membracidae, including Leptocentrus altifrons, Anchon relatum, Gargara variegata and Nehela ornata.

Treehoppers (more precisely typical treehoppers to distinguish them from the Aetalionidae) and thorn bugs are members of the family Membracidae, a group of insects related to the cicadas and the leafhoppers.
