Hamilton, K.G.A. and Cocroft, R.B. (2010) Establishing the identity of existing names in the North American Enchenopa binotata species complex of treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae). Entomological News, 120(5): 534–565.

ABSTRACT: The Enchenopa binotata species complex, which is restricted to eastern North America, is separated from the western and Neotropical species by the proportions of the front and middle tibiae. Three of its species are identifiable by reference to adult characters, and three existing names are applied to two of these species.

Weglarz, K.M., and C.R. Bartlett. 2020. A revision of the planthopper genus Chionomus Fennah (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea: Delphacidae). Zootaxa, 4811(1): 1-63.

Abstract

The planthopper genus Chionomus Fennah, 1971 (Hemiptera: Fulgoroidea: Delphacidae) currently includes three Neotropical species, removed from the polyphyletic genus Delphacodes Fieber, 1866. Morphological and molecular evidence further redefine Chionomus to include ten additional species (eight species removed from Delphacodes, two described as new, viz. Chionomus dolonus n. sp. and C. herkos n. sp.), with another four species synonymized. Phylogenetic analyses of morphological and molecular sequence data of the mitochondrial gene Cytochrome Oxidase I provide support for the monophyly of Chionomus. We use a mixed model Bayesian optimality criterion to define phylogenetic relationships among Chionomus and support paraphyly of the original definition of Chionomus (with respect to Delphacodes) and monophyly of the revised genus.

Abstract.— The life history of Thionia elliptica (Germar) in Pennsylvania is outlined and the immatures described and illustrated. This univoltine issid has five nymphal instars, feeds on scrub oak (Quercus ilicifolia Wang.), has been collected from blackjack oak (Quercus marilandica Muenchh.), and apparently overwinters as eggs.
