Guides
Acericerus
Acericerus is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Eurymelinae, tribe Idiocerini. The genus was established by Dlabola in 1974 and is recorded from parts of northern Europe including Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Like other idiocerine leafhoppers, members of this genus are associated with woody host plants. The genus contains multiple species, though detailed species-level taxonomy and biology remain incompletely documented.
Balcanocerus dolosus
Balcanocerus dolosus is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Eurymelinae. Originally described by Ball in 1902, this species belongs to a genus found in western North America. The specific epithet 'dolosus' (Latin for 'deceitful' or 'cunning') may allude to its cryptic appearance or behavior. Like other idiocerine leafhoppers, it likely feeds on woody plant hosts.
Balcanocerus provancheri
Balcanocerus provancheri is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Eurymelinae. It was described by Van Duzee in 1890. The species is recorded from western North America including California, Arizona, Colorado, Alberta, and British Columbia. As a member of the Idiocerini tribe, it belongs to a group of leafhoppers often associated with woody host plants.
Idiocerus amoenus
Idiocerus amoenus is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, originally described by Van Duzee in 1894. The species is currently recognized as a synonym of Idiocerus nervatus according to modern taxonomic databases. It belongs to the subfamily Eurymelinae and tribe Idiocerini, a group of leafhoppers characterized by their relatively broad head and often distinctive coloration. Records indicate occurrence in western and southwestern North America.
Idiocerus interruptus
Idiocerus interruptus is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Gillette & Baker in 1895. It belongs to the subfamily Eurymelinae and tribe Idiocerini. The species is recorded from Colorado, USA, based on available distribution data. As a member of the genus Idiocerus, it shares the characteristic broad, somewhat flattened body form typical of this group of leafhoppers.
Idiocerus moniliferae
Idiocerus moniliferae is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, described by Osborn and Ball in 1898. It is currently treated as a synonym of Liocratus moniliferae. Records indicate occurrence in the western and central United States. As a member of the tribe Idiocerini, it belongs to a group of leafhoppers often associated with woody host plants.
Idiocerus stigmaticalis
Idiocerus stigmaticalis is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae, first described by Lewis in 1834. It belongs to the subfamily Eurymelinae and tribe Idiocerini, a group characterized by their broad, rounded heads and association with woody host plants. The species has been recorded across parts of Europe including England, Italy, and Ukraine. Like other Idiocerus species, it is likely associated with deciduous trees, though specific host plant records for this species are limited.
Populicerus aureus
Populicerus aureus is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Eurymelinae, described by Hamilton in 1980. The genus Populicerus belongs to the tribe Idiocerini, a group of leafhoppers often associated with woody host plants. This species has been recorded across multiple Canadian provinces including Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, and Québec. Very limited biological information is available for this species specifically.
Populicerus inebrius
Populicerus inebrius is a leafhopper species described by Hamilton in 1980. It belongs to the tribe Idiocerini, a group known for association with woody host plants, particularly poplars and willows. The species has been documented from Utah.
Rhytidodus
Rhytidodus is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Eurymelinae, tribe Idiocerini. The genus was established by Fieber in 1872 and is currently accepted as valid. Species in this genus are found in Europe, with distribution records from Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. As a member of the Idiocerini, Rhytidodus belongs to a group of leafhoppers often associated with woody host plants.
Tremulicerus
Tremulicerus is a genus of leafhoppers (family Cicadellidae) described by Dlabola in 1974. The genus belongs to the subfamily Eurymelinae and tribe Idiocerini. Two species are recognized: T. distinguendus and T. fulgidus. Records indicate presence in Europe, North America, and New Zealand.
