The genus Parasogata Zhou, Yang & Chen, 2018 is here reported from India represented by the new species Parasogata sexpartita sp. nov. collected in a recent exploration and survey of delphacids from Nagaland in northeastern India. A second species of Eoeurysa Muir, 1913 from India, the new species Eoeurysa sagittaria sp. nov., was found in Rampur, Una, Himachal Pradesh. Both new species are described with illustrations, and a molecular identification is given with the mtCOI gene sequence. A modified key to species of the genera is also provided. Keywords.

INTRODUCTION Planthoppers and leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha et Cicadomorpha) are phytophagous insects which are highly related to their host plants, and most of them are trophically specialized as mono- or oligophagous (niCkel 2003), so most of them are attached to the specific plant associations, where they form multispecies communities. -

Nymphs (Fig. 2): There are five nymphal instars, and nymphal color ranges from light to dark brown (Dale, 1994). The fifth instar has extended mesonatal wingpads which are distinct from other delphacids (Wilson and Claridge, 1991). The fifth and final 1 instar has a head with a width of 0.50-0.54 mm (~ /64 in) and distinct dark-brown markings on the post clypeus (Wilson and Claridge, 1991). 1 Last updated: September 26, 2018 Adults (Fig. 1, 2): Adults have macropterous (M, large-winged) and brachypterous (B, small-winged) wing forms, which vary based on environmental and genetic factors (Mori and Nakasuji, 1991). A study in China showed that the M wing form is more common (Wang et al., 2013). -

W. ~ilsonland J. E. Mc~herson2 ABSTRACT The forms of the nymphal tibial spur in Megamelus davisi Van Duzee, and their relation to Muir's classification of delphacid subfamilies and tribes, are discussed. The evolutionary relationships among fulgoroid taxa, in our opinion, are not clearly un- derstood. Although some attempts have been made to clarify these relationships on the basis of adult morphology (e.g., Muir 1930), the morphology of nymphs, including the ontogeny of anatomical features, has been virtually ignored. -

Leafhopper and planthopper (Auchenorryncha) assemblages were investigated at a lowland site in the United Kingdom supporting acidic and mesotrophic grasslands reverting from agricultural use, alongside remnants of semi-natural acidic heath. Further areas of agricultural land had been subject to soil inversion with or with- out addition of sulphur, heather brash and seed material to establish acidic heath or mesotrophic grassland. Eleven years after work commenced, Auchenorrhyncha assemblages of heath created on former arable land were most closely related to those of remnant semi-natural heath and reversion acidic grasslands. In contrast, an area of heath created on former pasture eight years previously, and at an earlier stage of devel- opment, supported an insect assemblage more closely -

Bartlett Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology, 250 Townsend Hall, University of Delaware, Newark, Delaware, 19716-2160 email: (ACK) [email protected], (CRB) [email protected] ABSTRACT Caenodelphax Fennah was reviewed with reference to putatively allied species in the polyphyletic genus Delphacodes Fieber. Phylogenetic analyses using maximum parsimony of 34 morphological features for 15 ingroup and 3 outgroup taxa found that Caenodelphax sensu stricto did not group with putatively allied Delphacodes. Caenodelphax is here redefined as monotypic, andFlavoclypeus new genus is described to accommodate a clade of 8 species (6 transferred from Delphacodes and 2 transferred from Caenodelphax). Caenodelphax philyra was found to be a junior subjective synonym of Caenodelphax teapae. Among the Delphacidae are many important the genus, Delphacodes mulsanti (Fieber 1866). pests, most notably Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), The lectotype was a female in poor condition (from the brown planthopper, Perkinsiella saccharicida southern France), which led to uncertainty and Kirkaldy, the sugarcane planthopper, Peregrinus varied interpretation of the generic definition (e.g., maidis (Ashmead), the corn planthopper, and Muir & Giffard 1924, Haupt 1935, China 1954, Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén), the small brown Linnavuori 1957, Dlabola 1957, 1961; Nast 1958, planthopper (Wilson 2005).
