List of Cladonota species

The following is a list of treehopper species within the genus Cladonota.[1][2][3][4]

Subgenus Falculifera edit

Species in this subgenus are characterized by a lack of intermediate process on the pronotum.[5][6]

Subgenus Cladonota edit

Unlike Falculifera, the type subgenus Cladonota possesses an intermediate process on the pronotum. It is covered by the arching anterior process, which does not have a tooth-like projection on its back side.[7]

As of 2022, it comprises 20 species.[7][8]

  • Cladonota albofasciata Goding, 1893
  • Cladonota amazonica Andrade, 1978
  • Cladonota atrata Fonesca, 1936
  • Cladonota cinerea Fonesca, 1933
  • Cladonota crassepunctata Sakakibara, 1971
  • Cladonota cryani Flynn, 2022
  • Cladonota erwini Flynn, 2018
  • Cladonota foliata Funkhouser, 1922
  • Cladonota fritzi Sakakibara, 1976
  • Cladonota gracilis Sakakibara, 1971
  • Cladonota guimaraesi Sakakibara, 1981
  • Cladonota latifrons Stål, 1869
  • Cladonota lopezi Strümpel, 1973
  • Cladonota lydieae Arnaud, 2020
  • Cladonota mirabilis Fairmaire, 1846
  • Cladonota paradoxa Germar, 1821

  • Cladonota rufescens Fonesca, 1933
  • Cladonota trilobosa Fonesca & Diringshofen, 1969
  • Cladonota undulata Walker, 1851

Subgenus Lecythifera edit

The subgenus Lecythifera is also characterized by the presence of an intermediate process of the pronotum, and by a toothless anterior process. However, unlike in Cladonota, the intermediate process is not surpassed by the anterior process. The subgenus comprises 21 known species as of 2022. All species with both male and female specimens known are sexually dimorphic, with the exception of C. plummeri.[9][8]

Species Authority Range Length[a] Description Sexual dimorphism Image
Cladonota affinis Fowler, 1894 Mexico, Guatemala 7 mm (0.28 in) (male)
Cladonota bulbosa Flynn, 2003 Mexico 5.5 to 6.5 mm (0.22 to 0.26 in) Intermediate process of the pronotum bears a large bulbous inflation on top, with a smaller arm extending below it towards the anterior process. Males possess a smaller top bulbous inflation, with another small inflation extending anterior to it. Present

Subgenus Lobocladisca edit

 
Specimen of Cladonota (Lobocladisca) livida from the Peruvian Amazon

The subgenus Lobocladisca is uniquely distinguished by a small tooth-like projection on the back side of the anterior process. Like in the subgenera Cladonota and Lecythifera, species of this subgenus all have an intermediate process on their pronotum. The subgenus comprises nine species as of 2020, many of them only known from the type specimen or the original description, and thus of uncertain validity. Conversely, Cladonota (Lobocladisca) biclavata is the most common species of the genus in all of South America.[10]

  • Cladonota bennetti Kirby, 1829
  • Cladonota biclavata Westwood, 1840
  • Cladonota clavaria Fairmaire, 1846
  • Cladonota livida Buckton, 1903
  • Cladonota lobulata Stål, 1869
  • Cladonota occidentalis Strümpel, 1973
  • Cladonota rigida Stål, 1869
  • Cladonota spatulata Fairmaire, 1846
  • Cladonota vexillifera Goding, 1893

Incertae sedis edit

No illustration is known for Cladonota brunnea, and the type specimen, discovered in Brazil, has not been preserved. While it is possibly a genetic variation within C. apicalis, the description is considered too insufficient for assignment at the subgenus level.[5]
