The species has been identified as a predator of the Dubas bug (Ommatissus lybicus), a serious pest of date palms in the Middle East and North Africa, based on molecular gut content analysis. It was collected from date palm plantations in Oman as part of a study identifying natural enemies of O. lybicus.

The genus Erronus is part of a group of leafhoppers characterized by particular morphological features associated with this tribe. Very little specific information is available about the biology, ecology, or distribution of this particular species.
