Enchenopa on-ceanothus-americanus
Enchenopa on-ceanothus-americanus is a treehopper species in the family Membracidae. The species epithet suggests a host association with Ceanothus americanus (New Jersey tea), though this relationship requires confirmation. Members of the genus Enchenopa are characterized by their enlarged, often elaborately shaped pronotum. The specific epithet format "on-ceanothus-americanus" follows a nomenclatural convention sometimes used for host-specific or host-associated insects, though the exact circumstances of this naming require verification from original taxonomic literature.
