Nogodinidae
Nogodinid Planthoppers
Nogodinidae is a family of planthoppers within the superfamily Fulgoroidea. Members are distinguished by membranous wings with reticulate venation, a frons longer than wide, and antennae arising well below the eye with a clubbed base and unsegmented flagellum. The family contains four extant subfamilies (Bladininae, Gastriniinae, Colpopterinae, Nogodininae) and one fossil subfamily (†Ambitaktoinae). Taxonomic placement has been historically unstable, with some authors treating Nogodinidae as a subfamily of Issidae. Most species are forest-dwelling and less than 2 cm in length.
