A CONTRIBUTION TOWARD A MONOGRAPH OF THE HO- MOPTEROUS INSECTS OF THE FAMILY DELPHACID^ OF NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA. By David L. Crawford, Of Stanford University, California. INTRODUCTION. The family Delphacidas was until quite recently and, in fact, by some authors, is yet considered as a subfamily of the larger group Fulgoridse. By most students now, however, it is separated from its near relatives as a distinct family, chiefly on account of the large, movable spur, or calcar, at the base of the posterior tibias. The most noticeable characteristic of the group as a whole is its homogeneity in general aspect and appearance. There are a few characters which are constant enough in subgroups to serve as diag- nostic characters, and there are others which are too variable to serve that purpose. Some of the latter have, however, been used by many of the previous students with the result that genera and species have multiplied beyond reason and confusion has more and more crept in. This latter fact has been reahzed more strongly as my work on the group has progressed, and it has at last become necessary to rearrange the classification of the genera to some extent in order to avoid much of the prevalent confusion. At the suggestion of Prof. C. F. Baker, of Pomona College, Clare- mont, Cahfornia, the task of working over several collections of speci- mens of this family and naming the species was undertaken some months ago. His own collection of over 2,000 specimens, together with the United States National Museum collection of a still larger number, many of which, also, had been collected by Professor Baker, were placed before me for study. -

Towards a Phylogeny of the Cixiidae (Fulgoromorpha) and Its Major Subgroups: Preliminary Results
LECTURES Friday, 11. 6. 01 Towards a phylogeny of the Cixiidae (Fulgoromorpha) and its major subgroups: preliminary results Werner E, Holzinger', Ingrid Kammerlander', Thierry Bourgoin^, Kathy L. Chan^ and Bruce C. Campbell^ 'Oekoteam, Inst. f. Faunistik und Tieroekologie, Bergmanngasse 22, A-8010 Graz, Austria ^MNHN-Laboratoire d'Entomologie & ESA 8043 du CNRS, 45, Rue Buffon, F-75005 Paris, France 'USDA-ARS, WRRC, 800 Buchanan St., Albany, 94710-1100, CA, USA Cixiidae is one of the larger families within Fulgoromorpha. Cixiids are distributed worldwide, with an especially high diversity in the tropics. Some taxa are of economic importance, as they are vectors of serious plant diseases. Together with Delphacidae, Derbidae, Achihdae, Achilixiidae and - argued by some authors - Tettigometridae, Cixiidae are usually placed in a very basal position within Fulgoromorpha. The delimitation of the family is based mainly on symplesiomorphies, only a few characters are considered to be synapomorphies (see e. g. Bourgoin et al. 1997, Emeljanov 1990, 1997). Using both molecular and morphological methods, we want to provide new data for a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the Cixiidae and its major subgroups. Initial results based on 18S ribosomal DNA sequences indicate, that the Cixiidae (sensu lato) might be a paraphyletic taxon, whereas the subfamilies Bothriocerinae and Cixiinae are obviously monophyletic. The two major tribes within Cixiinae, Pentastirini and Cixiini, are also distinct monophyla with many autapomorphic nucleotide sites. This molecular-based inference is supported by certain morphological characters, especially those found in female genitalia. For example, the presence of a heUx-like, strongly wound Ductus receptaculi (see Remane & Asche 1979) appears to be a strong synapomorphy of the Cixiini. -
Characterizing the Spatial Distributions of Spotted Lanternfly
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Characterizing the spatial distributions of spotted lanternfy (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) in Pennsylvania vineyards Ashley Leach1,3 & Heather Leach2,3* Spotted lanternfy (SLF) is an invasive insect in the Northeastern U.S. projected to spread nationally and globally. While SLF is a signifcant pest of vineyards, little is known about the pest in grape agroecosystems including its spatial ecology. SLF spatial patterns were analyzed using a combination of approaches including generalized linear mixed efect models, Moran’s I statistic for spatial clustering, and Empirical Bayesian Kriging. Analysis revealed that SLF displayed signifcantly clumped distributions in monitored vineyards. Approximately 54% and 44% of the respective adult and egg mass populations were observed within the frst 15 m of the vineyard edge. Importantly, the spatial concentration of adults at the edge was consistent temporally, both between years and weeks. Moreover, high populations of SLF on vines were signifcantly correlated with reduced fruit production in the following year. Mark-release-recapture of SLF revealed that higher proportions of SLF were recaptured on vines with high pre-existing SLF populations, indicating that SLF may exhibit aggregation behavior along vineyard perimeters. Monitoring and management eforts for SLF should be prioritized around vineyard edges as it may signifcantly reduce infestations and subsequent damage. Te spatial ecology of invasive species has received considerable attention in the past decade 1–6. Spatial ecology ofers unique insights into how organisms organize and utilize habitats across both space and time. Geostatistical and spatial analyses identify predictable invasion patterns of invasive pests, which aid in describing how these species colonize foreign habitats and what landscape attributes contribute to the their success7,8. -

A Review of the Systematics of Hawaiian Planthoppers (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea)L
Pacific Science (1997), vol. 51, no. 4: 366-376 © 1997 by University of Hawai'i Press. All rights reserved A Review of the Systematics of Hawaiian Planthoppers (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea)l MANFRED ASCHE2 ABSTRACT: With 206 endemic species, the phytophagous Fulgoroidea, or planthop pers, are among the most important elements of the native Hawaiian fauna. These principally monophagous or oligophagous insects occur in nearly all Hawaiian terrestrial ecosystems. Species of two of the 18 planthopper families occurring worldwide have successfully colonized and subsequently radiated in Hawai'i. Based on collections made mainly by Perkins, Kirkaldy, Muir, Giffard, and Swezey, more than 95% of these species were described in the first three decades of this century. The systematics of the Hawaiian planthoppers has changed little in the past 60 yr and is not based on any phylogenetic analyses. This paper attempts a preliminary phylogenetic evaluation ofthe native Hawaiian p1anthoppers on the basis ofcompara tive morphology to recognize monophyletic taxa and major evolutionary lines. The following taxa are each descendants of single colonizing species: in Cixiidae, the Hawaiian Oliarus and Iolania species; in De1phacidae, Aloha partim, Dictyophoro delphax, Emoloana, Leialoha + Nesothoe, Nesodryas, and at least four groups within Nesosydne. Polyphyletic taxa are the tribe "Alohini," Aloha s.l., Nesorestias, Nesosydne s.l., and Nothorestias. Non-Hawaiian species currently placed in Iolania, Oliarus, Aloha, Leialoha, and Nesosydne are not closely allied to the Hawaiian taxa. The origin of the Hawaiian planthoppers is obscure. The Hawaiian Oliorus appear to have affinities to (North) American taxa. ALTHOUGH THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS are the most Other groups of Hawaiian insects have isolated islands on earth, they house a remark received far less attention, although they are ably rich flora and fauna. -

TREWICK defining feature of the Hexapoda, as the name suggests, is six legs. Also, the body comprises a head, thorax, and abdomen. The number A of abdominal segments varies, however; there are only six in the Collembola (springtails), 9–12 in the Protura, and 10 in the Diplura, whereas in all other hexapods there are strictly 11. Insects are now regarded as comprising only those hexapods with 11 abdominal segments. Whereas crustaceans are the dominant group of arthropods in the sea, hexapods prevail on land, in numbers and biomass. Altogether, the Hexapoda constitutes the most diverse group of animals – the estimated number of described species worldwide is just over 900,000, with the beetles (order Coleoptera) comprising more than a third of these. Today, the Hexapoda is considered to contain four classes – the Insecta, and the Protura, Collembola, and Diplura. The latter three classes were formerly allied with the insect orders Archaeognatha (jumping bristletails) and Thysanura (silverfish) as the insect subclass Apterygota (‘wingless’). The Apterygota is now regarded as an artificial assemblage (Bitsch & Bitsch 2000). -
