Hecalus major is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Osborn in 1915 under the basionym Parabolocratus major. It belongs to the tribe Hecalini within the subfamily Deltocephalinae. The species has been documented in several Midwestern and Northeastern U.S. states.
Memnonia albolinea
Memnonia albolinea is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Deltocephalinae, described by Ball in 1937. The species name refers to a white line marking, characteristic of the specific epithet. It belongs to the tribe Hecalini, a group of grass-feeding leafhoppers. The genus Memnonia contains multiple North American species, with M. albolinea documented from Arizona.
Memnonia brunnea
Memnonia brunnea is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Ball in 1900. It belongs to the tribe Hecalini within the subfamily Deltocephalinae. The species is documented from several central and western North American states including Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and New Mexico. As with other members of the genus Memnonia, it is likely associated with grassland or prairie habitats, though specific ecological details remain poorly documented.
Memnonia consobrina
Memnonia consobrina is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Ball in 1900. The species belongs to the subfamily Deltocephalinae and tribe Hecalini, a group of grass-feeding leafhoppers. Distribution records indicate occurrence in the central United States, specifically Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, and South Dakota. As a member of the Cicadellidae family, it shares the characteristic piercing-sucking mouthparts and hind legs adapted for jumping common to leafhoppers.
Memnonia flavida
Memnonia flavida is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, tribe Hecalini. It is recorded from the southeastern United States, with distribution records from Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, and Georgia. As a member of the subfamily Deltocephalinae, it is part of one of the largest and most diverse groups of leafhoppers.
Memnonia maia

Memnonia purpurea
Memnonia purpurea is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Ball in 1933. It belongs to the tribe Hecalini within the subfamily Deltocephalinae. The species is known from limited observations in Arizona. As with other leafhoppers in this family, it is presumed to be a plant-feeding insect with piercing-sucking mouthparts, though specific biological details remain poorly documented.
Neohecalus lineatus
Neohecalus lineatus is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Uhler in 1877. It belongs to the tribe Hecalini within the subfamily Deltocephalinae. Distribution records indicate presence in several eastern and midwestern U.S. states including Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, and Indiana. As a member of the Hemiptera, it possesses piercing-sucking mouthparts typical of true bugs.
Neohecalus magnificus
Neohecalus magnificus is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, described by Hamilton in 2000. It belongs to the tribe Hecalini, a group of grass-feeding leafhoppers. The species is known from the north-central United States and adjacent Canada, with records from Illinois, Iowa, Manitoba, Michigan, Minnesota. As a member of the subfamily Deltocephalinae, it is likely associated with grassland habitats, though specific ecological details remain poorly documented.
Neoslossonia
Neoslossonia is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Deltocephalinae, and tribe Hecalini. It was established by Van Duzee in 1909. The genus belongs to the large and diverse group of true bugs known as leafhoppers, which are characterized by their piercing-sucking mouthparts and association with vascular plants. Very few observations of this genus exist in public databases, suggesting it may be rare, poorly collected, or taxonomically obscure.
Spangbergiella
Spangbergiella is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Deltocephalinae, tribe Hecalini. The genus was established by Signoret in 1879 and contains at least four described species distributed in North America. Like other leafhoppers, members of this genus are small, active insects that feed on plant sap using piercing-sucking mouthparts. The genus is placed in the tribe Hecalini, which includes grass-feeding leafhoppers often associated with open, grassy habitats.
Spangbergiella viridis
Spangbergiella viridis is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae. It is classified within the subfamily Deltocephalinae and tribe Hecalini. The species was described by Provancher in 1872. Available information is limited to taxonomic classification and basic nomenclatural data.
Spangbergiella vulnerata
Spangbergiella vulnerata is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Uhler in 1877. It belongs to the subfamily Deltocephalinae and tribe Hecalini. The species has been documented across multiple continents, with distribution records from North America (Arkansas, Delaware, Florida) and South America (Bahia, Ciudad de Buenos Aires in Argentina). As a member of the leafhopper family, it is presumed to feed on plant phloem sap, though specific host plant associations remain undocumented in available sources.
