It belongs to the tribe Dikraneurini, a group of small, often colorful leafhoppers. Records indicate occurrence in California. Very little specific biological information has been published for this species.
Alconeura quadrimaculata
Sycamore Leafhopper
Alconeura quadrimaculata is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, commonly known as the Sycamore Leafhopper. It was described by Lawson in 1930 and is native to the southwestern United States. The species belongs to the subfamily Typhlocybinae, a group of small leafhoppers often associated with specific host plants.
Alconeura tricolor
Alconeura tricolor is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, tribe Dikraneurini. It was described by Van Duzee in 1914. The species is known from the southwestern United States, with records from California and New Mexico. As a member of the Typhlocybinae, it belongs to a group commonly known as the 'sharpshooters' or 'leafhoppers,' though specific biological details for this species remain poorly documented.
Dikraneura arizona
Dikraneura arizona is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae. First described by DeLong & Caldwell in 1937, this small hemipteran is distributed across the southwestern and north-central United States. As a member of the tribe Dikraneurini, it shares characteristics with other minute leafhoppers that feed on plant phloem.
Dikrella
Dikrella is a genus of leafhoppers in the subfamily Typhlocybinae, tribe Dikraneurini, containing approximately 37 species distributed from the United States through Central America to South America. Members are small, delicate insects typically 3–4 mm in length. The genus has agricultural significance: Dikrella californica has been used as an intermediary host for the parasitic wasp Anagnus epos, employed in biological control of the western grape leafhopper. Several species are associated with economically important host plants including avocado and pequi.
Dikrella cruentata
blackberry leafhopper
Dikrella cruentata, commonly known as the blackberry leafhopper, is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae. The species was described by Gillette in 1898. A synonymized subspecies, D. cruentata kansiensis, was described by Lawson in 1930. The common name suggests an association with blackberry plants, though specific ecological relationships remain poorly documented in available sources.
Forcipata frigida
Forcipata frigida is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, described by Beirne in 1955. It belongs to the tribe Dikraneurini, a group of small leafhoppers often associated with herbaceous vegetation. Distribution records indicate occurrence in the Canadian prairie provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
Forcipata montana
Forcipata montana is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, described by Hamilton in 1998. It belongs to the tribe Dikraneurini, a group of small leafhoppers often associated with specific host plants. The species name "montana" suggests a mountainous distribution.
Idona
Idona is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, and tribe Dikraneurini. The genus was established by DeLong in 1931. Species within this genus are associated with agricultural crops, including avocado, where at least one species (Idona minuenda) has been identified as a pest. The genus is part of the diverse leafhopper fauna of the Americas and has been documented in taxonomic studies focusing on Typhlocybinae systematics.
Kidrella
Kidrella is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, and tribe Dikraneurini. It was established by Young in 1952. Members of this genus are small, delicate leafhoppers characteristic of the Typhlocybinae, which are among the smallest and most morphologically specialized leafhoppers. The genus is part of a diverse group of sap-feeding insects within the Membracoidea superfamily.
Kunzeana
Kunzeana is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, established by Oman in 1949. The genus belongs to the subfamily Typhlocybinae and tribe Dikraneurini. It contains more than 30 described species. Members are small, plant-feeding insects with piercing-sucking mouthparts typical of the family.
Kunzella
Kunzella is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, and tribe Dikraneurini. It was established by Young in 1952. Members of this genus belong to a diverse group of small, plant-feeding insects known for their jumping ability and association with vascular plants. The genus is poorly documented in public sources, with minimal observational records available.
Parallaxis
Parallaxis is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, and tribe Dikraneurini. The genus was established by McAtee in 1926. Members of this genus are small, sap-feeding insects that inhabit diverse plant communities. As with other typhlocybines, they possess reduced wing venation and are among the smallest leafhoppers.
Parallaxis guzmani
Parallaxis guzmani is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae. It was described by Baker in 1903 and is known from Central America. The genus Parallaxis belongs to the tribe Dikraneurini, a group of small, often colorful leafhoppers.
Typhlocybella
Typhlocybella is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, and tribe Dikraneurini. The genus was established by Baker in 1903. It belongs to the economically important group of typhlocybine leafhoppers, many of which are associated with vascular plant feeding. The genus contains multiple species distributed across certain regions, though detailed species-level documentation remains limited in publicly available sources.
