Bolbonota tuberculata
Bolbonota tuberculata is a treehopper species in the family Membracidae, characterized by its globular, tuberculate body form and dark coloration. The species belongs to the New World tribe Membracini and exhibits the pronotal modifications typical of this group—an enlarged, helmet-like structure that extends over the body. Like other members of the genus Bolbonota, adults have been observed with distinctive red eyes. The species occurs in the Neotropical region, with records from French Guiana and Brazil.
Enchenopa brevis
Leatherwood Treehopper
Enchenopa brevis is a treehopper species in the family Membracidae, first described by Walker in 1851. It belongs to the tribe Membracini, a group characterized by their enlarged and often elaborately shaped pronotum. The species is known by the common name "Leatherwood Treehopper." Like other members of the genus Enchenopa, it is likely associated with woody host plants, though specific ecological details remain poorly documented in published literature.
Enchenopa n-sp-az-i
A member of the diverse treehopper genus Enchenopa, this undescribed species from Arizona belongs to the tribe Membracini. The genus Enchenopa is known for species with pronounced pronotal modifications and associations with woody host plants. This particular taxon represents an unidentified species designation used in collection records pending formal description.
Enchenopa on-betula
Enchenopa on-betula is a treehopper species in the family Membracidae, subfamily Membracinae. The genus Enchenopa belongs to the tribe Membracini, a group of treehoppers characterized by their enlarged, often elaborately shaped pronotum that extends backward over the abdomen. Species in this genus are associated with various host plants, with some showing specificity to particular plant taxa. The specific epithet 'on-betula' suggests an association with birch (Betula) host plants, though this requires confirmation. Treehoppers in this group feed on plant sap using piercing-sucking mouthparts and are known for their often striking pronotal modifications.
