Signoretiinae

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Signoretiinae, known vernacularly as signoretiines,[1] is a small, unusual, and relatively understudied[2] subfamily of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae. The subfamily has sometimes been considered synonymous with the tribe Signoretiini and placed in the subfamily Cicadellinae.[1]

Members of the Signoretiinae are typically distinguished from other cicadellids by their enlarged frontes (front of their heads) and lengthened pronota (front parts of their thoraxes) which cover part of their heads.[1]
