New Records of Sharpshooters (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Cicadellinae) in Citrus Orchards in Amazonas State, Brazil

This research study reports new records of eight species of Cicadellini (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Cicadellinae) across seven municipalities in Amazonas State, Brazil. Among these species, one is known as a vector of CVC (<i>Provancherana corniculata</i>). Additionally, five species are being reported for the first time in citrus for the State (<i>Erythrogonia sexguttata</i>, <i>Hortensia similis</i>, <i>Provancherana corniculata</i>, <i>Scopogonalia amazonensis</i>, and <i>Scoposcartula oculata</i>), and three species (<i>Diedrocephala variegata</i>, <i>Macugonalia moesta</i> and <i>Xyphon reticulatum</i>) are reported for the first time in the northern region. This research highlights the lack of information on sharpshooter occurrence in the Amazonas region, emphasizing the need for further investigations in this area.
