Empoa aureotecta
question about change from E. russeola - iNat lists E. aureotecta as a synonym for E. saffrana. where did that come from?

edit: I just commissioned a taxonomy change on iNat

no idea
not everything on iNat is correct

Edit: in MOST cases, the taxonomy on Bugguide for the leafhopper and planthoppers is accurate. MOST cases, especially for eastern taxa. I've made sure about this. There are a handful of cases in the East where the taxonomy is not necessarily up to date, but I have reasons for that.

that synonym thing is odd. thanks for all you do to minimise the confusion.
