I'm confused
First comment says, "Deltocephalus sonorus
A common western leafhopper resembling Graminella, but with 3 anteapical cells instead of only 2". But now it's in Graminella. It looks like Deltocephalus no longer exists. Is the number of anteapical cells then irrelevant?
And what about pages like this? https://bugguide.net/node/view/29357
I'm trying to place my entry:
but these comments seem inconsistent and I find myself going in circles.

sonora
The taxonomy was wrong for this species, it was previously placed in Deltocephalus but that name is not valid so we updated the species to reflect its currently accepted placement. Deltocephalus as a genus still exists.
With regards to the anteapical cells, I currently can't speak to that (I'd have to look that up). And regarding the image you just posted, Its a tough angle to work with which is why I moved it to family level.

Thanks
Thanks for the quick explanation. So it wasn't this particular individual that was moved. The whole species was moved? It sounds like that's what you're saying. Correct?

yes
the entire species was moved. If I remember correctly, I had begun to move individual records before realizing that the entire species page can just be moved.
