Uncovering diversity and climatic drivers of leafhopper-parasitoid dynamics in Canada Open
As climate change reshapes northern agroecosystems, leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) are shifting their distributions, with implications for pest outbreaks and crop health. In Eastern Canada, we monitored strawberry farms from 2023 to…

Boreolimnus, a new leafhopper genus from northern North America, with a review of Cribrus Oman (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Deltocephalinae) Open
The poorly known leafhopper species described as Deltocephalus (Laevicephalus) concinnus var. incisurus DeLong, 1926 previously had no accepted generic placement. It is here redescribed and placed in Boreolimnus gen. nov. in the tribe Para…

Phylogeny, biogeography and morphological evolution of the treehopper‐like leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) Megophthalminae and Ulopinae Open
Recent phylogenetic analyses of anchored‐hybrid, transcriptomic and morphological data have consistently recovered a clade comprising the three previously recognized families of treehoppers (Hemiptera), Aetalionidae, Melizoderidae and Memb…

Leafhoppers as markers of the impact of climate change on agriculture Open
Summary: Climate change is reshaping agriculture and insect biodiversity worldwide. With rising temperatures, many insect species are expected to be pushed beyond their current thermal limits, and losses related to herbivory and diseases t…

The genus Errastunus in the Nearctic region (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Deltocephalinae) Open
The leafhopper genus Errastunus contains grass-feeding leafhoppers in the deltocephaline tribe Paralimnini. The taxonomy of the genus in the Nearctic region has long been confused, with one to three distinct species recognized by different…

Hidden in the dung: first record of Maculantrops hirtipes () (Diptera, Sphaeroceridae) from Brazil Open
We recorded for the first time the lesser dung fly Maculantrops hirtipes (Macquart, 1844) from Brazil, state of Rio Grande do Sul. Twenty-five specimens were reared from the dung of Myocastor coypus (Molina, 1782), this is the first record…
