Cercopoidea: Spittlebug superfamily (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha). Nymphs create foam 'cuckoo spit' from xylem sap. Pests like Mahanarva fimbriolata damage sugarcane in Brazil. ~3,000 spp. worldwide. #Entomology #Biodiversity 🧪

Nog een foto van Borneo - echt een bijzonder, en bijzonder klein, beest, was deze cicade (Auchenorrhyncha), behorend tot de Fulgoroidea. Dat vuurwerk uit zijn "kont" zijn wasdraden waarlangs de honingdauw kan wegdruppelen, maar die natuurlijk ook dienen als afweer/afleiding. #ElkeDagEenInsect

Turkish entomologist Ayla Kalkandelen would have been 86 years old today. She specialized in the study of Auchenorrhyncha, and particularly in the "leafhoppers" or Cicadellidae which can act as vectors for plant disease.

Auchenorrhyncha are the unsung heroes of biodiversity :) I'm falling in love with cicadellids in particular.

Leafhoppers and cicadas have highly similar eye placements because they are evolutionary cousins belonging to the same insect suborder, Auchenorrhyncha.

Another banger from Peter Bräunig. His papes are always crazy and understated. Same with Hans Joachim Pflüger. There is just something special insect neuroethologists with umlauts. Bässler is another example.
