03FEB44DFF91FFB1FF0BFC7BFDE0FAC5.taxon	discussion	Remarks: A. conica is for the moment the only representative of the family in Europe. In North America this extremely polyphagous planthopper is commonly found feeding mixed with flatid species such as Metcalfa pruinosa (Say, 1830), Anormenis chloris (Melichar, 1902) or Ormenoides venusta (Melichar, 1902) (Wilson & Lucchi 2001). In Europe it was recorded for the first time in 2004 (Italy: Veneto) (D’Urso & Uliana 2004, 2006).	en	Valeria Trivellone, Eva Knop, Tabea Turrini, Line Andrey, Jean-Yves Humbert, Gernot Kunz (2015): New and remarkable leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) from Switzerland.

This species was recorded in Switzerland for the first time in 2010 (Trivellone 2010) and was collected in abundance from the phytocenosis of Sphagno-Caricetum rostratae in the cantons Ticino and Grisons.

03FEB44DFF92FFB2FF18FB38FC5CFA1E.taxon	discussion	Remarks: Horvathianella is amonotypic genus and is known to feed on Chrysopogon gryllus. In Switzerland this plant species is largely confined to xerothermic meadows and stony areas of southern parts of the country. In Swiss vineyards C. gryllus is quite rare and found only in steep embankments. H. palliceps specimens were collected in avineyard where wide stands of C. gryllus were recorded.	en	Valeria Trivellone, Eva Knop, Tabea Turrini, Line Andrey, Jean-Yves Humbert, Gernot Kunz (2015): New and remarkable leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) from Switzerland.

03FEB44DFF95FFB5FF0BFE7FFC4AFB3E.taxon	discussion	Remarks: In total 24 species of the genus Chlorita Fieber are known from the Palaeartic region. Four of them: C. subulata (Ribaut, 1933), C. viridula (Fallen, 1806), C. tamaninii Wagner, 1959 and C. paolii (Ossiannilsson, 1939) belong to the Chlorita viridula species group and are closely related. Wagner (1959) published a key to distinguish the above-mentioned species. Up to now, in Switzerland only C. viridula (Ribaut 1933, Cerutti 1939) and C. paolii (Trivellone & Pollini Paltrinieri 2011) were recorded. In 2011, the first author had collected specimens with aedeagus morphological characteristics quite different from C. viridula and C. paolii. According to the key after Wagner (1959), two main subgroups of species were recognized based on the characteristics of the appendages of the aedeagus: appendages without ablunt tooth and convergent in the viridula-subulata subgroup; and appendages with ablunt tooth and divergent in the paolii-tamaninii subgroup. The appendages of the examined specimens do neither coincide perfectly with the first, nor with the second subgroup. The following description of aspecimen is proposed as reference to further collections. Determination: The genital plate with parameres and the appendices of the anal tube are illustrated in Figs 4 A and 4 B, respectively; they are similar to C. viridula after Le Quesne & Payne (1981). In the male, aedeagus with apair of recurved appendages, longer than main stem, without tooth along outer margin; but hardly S-shaped in the middle (Fig. 4 C) and ending in sharp-hooked apices (Fig. 4 D).	en	Valeria Trivellone, Eva Knop, Tabea Turrini, Line Andrey, Jean-Yves Humbert, Gernot Kunz (2015): New and remarkable leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) from Switzerland.

03FEB44DFF96FFB8FF18FAAFFDBBFB50.taxon	discussion	Remarks: This species is usually found on sunny, oligotrophic and xerothermic sites, often in quite disturbed pastures (Nickel 2003). In this study some specimens were collected on vineyards floor vegetation and one specimen was unexpectedly collected from vine canopy.	en	Valeria Trivellone, Eva Knop, Tabea Turrini, Line Andrey, Jean-Yves Humbert, Gernot Kunz (2015): New and remarkable leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) from Switzerland.

03FEB44DFF98FFB9FF18FB54FE71FE6B.taxon	discussion	Remarks: The genus Hishimonus Ishihara belongs to the tribe Opsiini of Deltocephalinae, and is native to the Oriental region with records into the Ethiopian, Australian and eastern Palaearctic regions (Dai et al. 2013). Some species of Hishimonus are known to be of economic importance, because they were recorded as vector of phytoplasmas causing dwarf disease, Rhus yellows and witches broom (Weintraub & Beanland 2006; Seljak 2013). The first appearance in 2012 in Europe (Slovenia) was published by Seljak (2013). However, an increasing number of records (http: // www. fitosanitario. re. it) and recent findings from the surroundings of Grado (Italy) suggest its primary introduction in the North of Italy. Nevertheless dissected material is still not available.	en	Valeria Trivellone, Eva Knop, Tabea Turrini, Line Andrey, Jean-Yves Humbert, Gernot Kunz (2015): New and remarkable leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) from Switzerland.

03FEB44DFF99FFB9FF0BFE24FD33FCED.taxon	discussion	Remarks: This leafhopper produces two generations each year. The summer generation switches the host plant from different woody species (Quercus spp., Fagus sylvatica, Alnus glutinosa, Corylus avellana and Betula pubescens) to Rubus fruticosus and lays the eggs on this evergreen plant for overwintering. Adults during springtime switch again to their summer hosts.	en	Valeria Trivellone, Eva Knop, Tabea Turrini, Line Andrey, Jean-Yves Humbert, Gernot Kunz (2015): New and remarkable leafhoppers and planthoppers (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) from Switzerland.
