“…Planthoppers distinguish themselves among insect taxa that produce wax structures with their exceptional jumping abilities. Over the past two decades, researchers have extensively studied planthoppers for their jump performance, power amplification mechanisms, and energy storage strategies, primarily focusing on winged adults across families such as Issidae, Dicytyopharidae, Flatidae, Derbidae, and Fulgoridae [39, 40, 41, 21, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46]. In contrast, the jumping capabilities of planthopper nymphs have received relatively less attention.…”
