“…At the forest edge, 617 individuals of 21 species were collected during 30 active collections (Table 1). Several collection methods have been used in isolation or together in the capture of membracids, such as active collection (Lopes, 1995;Creão-Duarte et al, 2012, yellow adhesive cards (Kopp & Yonke, 1970;Mason & Loye, 1981;Johnson & Freytag, 1997;Wallace & Maloney, 2010), malaise and light trap (Godoy et al, 2006), and atomizers (Albertson & Dietrich, 2006).…”

Membracidae diversity (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) in an Atlantic Forest area, Paraíba, Brazil, with preliminary comments on collection methods, spatial distribution and estimated species richness

et al. 2020

In order to document the Membracidae of an area of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest in Paraíba, four collection methods were employed, distributed in 100 sample units during ten days in November 2014. A total of 1,182 membracids of 27 species were collected. The assemblages were marked with a high dominance, since six species accounted for 80.63% of the total number of individuals captured. Species with more than ten individuals were associated with the three environments of the forest: canopy, understory, and edge. The importance of the four sampling methods in the final membracid composition was evaluated through the Jaccard similarity index and its complement, where the values of complementarity were superior to the values of similarity, suggesting the dissimilarity of assemblages inventoried by each method. The observed richness corresponds to 90.0% and 79.4% of the richness estimated by Chao1 and Chao2. The richness estimated by Chao1 is within the upper limit of the confidence interval (95%) in the last plot of the species accumulation curve, while the richness estimated by Chao2 is above this limit. The additional sampling effort needed to collect 95% of the estimated richness is 969 individuals for Chao1 and 317 sample units for Chao2.

A checklist of treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae) of Panama is provided with known province distribution data. The worldcatalogue of Membracoidea, through 1996, lists 68 genera, 162 species, and 1 subspecies from Panama (McKamey, 1998).New research in Panama has documented range extensions for 29 genera, 107 species, and 1 subspecies previously unknownfrom Panama. With these adjustments and additions, the total treehopper fauna from Panama includes 97 genera, 269 species, and 2 subspecies. Tables listing published checklists and keys for Nearctic and Neotropical treehoppers are presented.

The new Neotropical treehopper genera Smergotomia, based on S. clairae, new species, from Ecuador, and Braxtonota, based on B. enigmata, new species, from Puerto Rico are described and illustrated. Despite lacking a posterior pronotal process, Smergotomia appears to be most closely related to Smerdalea Fowler based on the forewing venation and male genitalia, but the subfamily and tribal placement of these two genera is uncertain. Braxtonota appears to be related to the two membracid tribes that are endemic to the Caribbean, but lacks the extra hind femoral cucullate setae diagnostic for Monobelini and the large teeth on the second valvulae diagnostic for Nessorhinini. It is provisionally placed in Monobelini. Smerdalea veracruzensis, new species from Mexico, with a pronotum considerably less ornate than its congeners, is also described and illustrated and a key to species of Smerdalea is provided.
