“…The tribe Zyginellini was proposed by Dworakowska based on the presence of one cross vein on the hind wing and with vein CuA apparently directly connected to MP [ 67 ], but its status as a separate tribe has been questioned [ 68 ]. Balme (2007) and Dietrich (2013) treated it as a synonym of Typhlocybini based on analysis of morphological characteristics and histone H3 and 16S rDNA sequences [ 4 , 5 ]. Recent phylogenetic analyses of Cidadellidae and Membracoidea [ 12 , 13 ] also grouped members of Zyginellini with Typhlocybini but these analyses did not include a large enough taxon sample to test the monophyly of the tribes.…”

“…Membracoidea is the largest hemipteroid superfamily, comprising nearly one-third of known hemipteran species, with approximately 24,000 valid species [ 1 , 2 ]. The leafhopper family Cicadellidae is among the 10 largest families of insects, and Typhlocybinae currently ranks as the second largest membracoid subfamily, with approximately 6000 described species [ 3 , 4 , 5 ]. The subfamily is distributed worldwide and includes many important agricultural pests such as the potato leafhopper ( Empoasca fabae (Harris, 1841)), white apple leafhopper ( Zonocyba pomaria (McAtee, 1926)), cotton leafhopper ( Amrasca biguttula (Ishida, 1913)) and kaki leafhoppers ( Limassolla hebeiensis Cai, Liang and Wang, 1992) [ 6 , 7 , 8 ].…”

“…The monophyly of Typhlocybinae has been supported by several recent analyses [ 4 , 11 , 12 , 13 ], but the status and relationships of its included tribes remain largely unexplored, particularly that of the phylogenetic status of the tribe Zyginellini. Zyginellini and Typhlocybini were traditionally distinguished based on differences in hind wing venation [ 14 ] but more recently the former was considered to be a junior synonym of the latter [ 5 ]. The phylogenetic status and relationships of these two tribes have not yet been adequately tested by previous analyses of DNA sequence data and morphological characteristics [ 4 , 11 , 12 ].…”

To explore the characteristics of mitogenomes and reveal phylogenetic relationships of the tribes of Zyginellini and Typhlocybini in Typhlocybinae, mitogenomes of two species of the Zyginellini, Parazyginella tiani and Limassolla sp., were sequenced. Mitogenomes of both species contain 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs) and a large non-coding region (A + T-rich region). These characteristics are similar to other Membracoidea mitogenomes. All PCGs initiate with the standard start codon of ATN and terminate with the complete stop codon of TAA/G or with an incomplete T codon. All tRNAs have the typical clover-leaf structure, except trnS1 which has a reduced DHU arm and the acceptor stem of trnR is 5 or 6 bp in some species, an unusual feature here reported for the first time in Typhlocybinae. The A + T-rich region is highly variable in length and in numbers of tandem repeats present. Our analyses indicate that nad6 and atp6 exhibit higher evolutionary rates compared to other PCGs. Phylogenetic analyses by both maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods based on 13 protein-coding genes of 12 species of Typhlocybinae suggest that Zyginellini are paraphyletic with respect to Typhlocybini.

“…Anaceratagallia ribauti was the most common species of the subfamily Agallinae, while the species of the subfamilies Aphrodinae and Hecalinae were seldom captured. Typhlocybinae is the second largest leafhopper subfamily after Deltocephalinae (Dietrich, ). However, in olive groves there were few records of those species.…”

Insects of the infraorder Cicadomorpha cause serious economic impact on agriculture because of pathogens’ transmission. The vector‐borne bacterium Xylella fastidiosa, which is associated with olive quick decline syndrome, is exclusively transmitted by insects of this infraorder and more specific by sharpshooters and spittlebugs. Efficient control practices of the insect vectors are necessary for the control of the disease in cases of outbreaks. Therefore, the knowledge of the vectors' species as well as the robust understanding of their biology and ecology is of crucial importance. In the present study, extensive sampling was conducted in 28 olive orchards of Greece during the years 2017 and 2018 aiming to investigate which species of this infraorder are present, with special interest to those which are considered as vectors of the bacterium. During the surveys, 4,350 Cicadomorpha insects were collected. Forty‐two, five and one species of the families Cicadellidae, Aphrophoridae and Cercopidae, respectively, were identified. The results of the surveys revealed that the main potential vectors of X. fastidiosa in Greek olive orchards are the spittlebugs Philaenus spumarius and Neophilaenus campestris. Those species have wide distribution in Greece and are present for a long period during the year, and they inhabit both the ground vegetation and the olive trees' canopy. A representative portion of the captured spittlebugs was analysed with molecular methods, and the analysis confirmed the absence of X. fastidiosa in the tested individuals.

“…The results of phylogeny confirmed that species from same subfamilies were all clustered into one clade, respectively, which was consistent with conventional classification. And the tribes Zyginellini and Typhlocybini formed sister group (Figure 1), indicating that they had closest relationship (Dietrich 2013).…”

The complete mitochondrial genome of Zyginella minuta was sequenced and annotated in this study. The closed-loop mitogenome is 15,544 bp in length, has an A þ T content of 76.3% (A ¼ 43.0%, T ¼ 33.3%, G ¼ 10.2%, and C ¼ 13.5%), containing 37 typical genes and a control region. All proteincoding genes (PCGs) started with ATN and stopped with TAA, except for ATP8 used TTG as initiation codon, Cytb ended with TAG, ND5, and ND4 used incomplete T as stop codon. The resultant phylogeny using 13 PCGs and 2 rRNAs showed these species in Typhlocybinae including Z. minuta formed a cluster indicating closer relationship than others.
