“…Scaphoideus titanus was formerly referred to as S. littoralis Ball (Nielson 1968) and is often confused with S. cyprius DeLong and Moore, a boginhabiting species (Hamilton 1983); females of these species cannot be differentiated. (Figures 13-16), Deltocephalus (Figures 18-19), Dikraneura, Endria (Figure 24), and Graminella (Figure 42) are generally found in grasses and forbs; may use grapevines as secondary hosts (Beirne 1956;Nielson 1968). Grasses present in groundcovers may constitute reservoir plants for phytoplasmas and may favor the spread of disease to grapevines.…”

“…Endria inimica (painted leafhopper, Figure 24) is very destructive to grasslands and can indirectly transmit viruses and Aster Yellow group (16SrI) phytoplasmas (Wilbur 1954;Hill and Sinclair 2000). Neokolla confluens (Figure 56) and N. hieroglyphica (Figure 57) feed on woody plants (Beirne 1956) and weeds, transmit the alfalfa witches' broom (Khadhair et al 1997), and are known as vectors of phytoplasmas causing Pierce's disease and Western Xdisease on grapes (Frazier and Freitag 1946). In BC, their nymphs occasionally infest the shoots of grapevines in sufficient number to require control (T. Lowery, personal communication).…”

“…Species were keyed according to several features (e.g., length, morphology, color, genitalia) using Beirne (1956), Greene (1971), Hamilton (1982, 1983, 1998), and Gareau (2008. Names were cited according to Maw et al (2000).…”

“…It seems inevitable that sooner or later species of grape leafhoppers additional to E. ziczac will be spread or be accidentally imported into the Okanagan Valley from grape-growing areas of Eastern Canada, where at least eight species of Erythroneura feed on grapevines or Virginia creeper (Beirne 1956), or from California.…”

“…Its life-history was described by Runner and Bliss (1923), Fairbairn (1928), and Pepper and Mills (1936). In Canada it has been regarded primarily as a pest of Virginia creeper and is normally less common on grapevines in Ontario and Quebec than are some other species of Erythrone~lra (Beirne 1956). It is the only grape-feeding species of leafhopper found so far in the Okanagan Valley, the main grape-growing area of British Columbia.…”
