Redescription of the Dikraneurini leafhopper Dikrellamella Ruppel DeLong 1952 (Hemiptera Cicadellidae) with a synoptic checklist of leafhoppers on avocado trees in Mexico

摘要

Among leafhoppers (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae), only Typhlocybinae are known in Mexico to inhabit avocado, an important horticultural crop. In this paper, a potential avocado pest, Dikrellamella Ruppel & DeLong, 1952, is redescribed and illustrated. Additionally, a detailed checklist and a key for all known species of Typhlocybinae associated with avocado trees in Mexico are provided.
