Leafhopper

Gardens, agricultural fields, meadows, and forests, usually found on the underside of plant leaves.

Herbivorous; they use piercing-sucking mouthparts to feed on plant sap from the xylem or phloem.

Known for their ability to jump quickly when disturbed; they undergo incomplete metamorphosis (egg, nymph, adult). Many species are highly host-specific.

They are considered agricultural pests because they can cause physical damage to plants (stippling or yellowing) and often transmit plant pathogens such as viruses or phytoplasmas.
