Sumario: | Abstract The microleafhoppers, Typhlocybinae (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), known to inhabit avocado trees in Mexico are reviewed. Leafhopper samples were taken using an entomological aspirator and a sweep net on avocado trees in Michoacán state. Three species, Alconeura cinctella, Empoasca angustella and Joruma sp., are newly reported to feed directly on young avocado leaves. An updated checklist and a key for all known species associated with avocado are provided. |
