1. Tri-Trophic Thematic Collection Network

This is a temporary location of Auchenorrhyncha data summaries from the Tri-Trophic Hemiptera collection Network specimen database.  This will be moved to its own page once some technical issues (regarding the mechanics of updating this data) have been sorted out.

Numbers of specimen records as of May, 2013.  Number of specimens only those captured in the “Arthropod Easy Capture” database, and does not include those captured in Specify or in Dmitry Dmitriev’s “3I Interactive Keys and Taxonomic Databases“.

2. Planthoppers of Costa Rica (and adjacent countries)

This is a listing of planthoppers of Costa Rica assembled by UD undergraduates Kaitlin Handley and Sara Laskowski (both of which have since graduated). I have made a few additions (and name corrections), including some taxa identified to genus only (or are new species).
