Yorkshire Auchenorrhyncha - Part 1: Fulgoromorpha (planthoppers) and Cicadomorpha - Cercopoidea (froghoppers)

摘要

The Fulgoromorpha and Cicadomorpha are Inf raorders within the suborder Auchenorrhyncha of the Hemiptera. They are all phytophagous and although some species cause leaf damage when feeding none are agricultural or horticultural pests in Britain. In Britain there are 90 recorded species representing 4 families of the Fulgoromorpha; at present 66 of these are recorded from Yorkshire. All 10 British Cicadomorpha - Cercopoidea species, representing 2 families, are recorded from Yorkshire. Overall the number of records held by the YNU is insufficient to truly represent current distribution and status.
