Description of Immature Stages and Life Cycle of the Treehopper,Guayaquila projecta

Abstract: Immature stages of the membracid Guayaquila projecta (Funkhouser) (Hemiptera: Cicadomorpha: Membracidae), collected in San Salvador de Jujuy, Argentina on Bougainvillea glabra Choisy (Caryophyllales: Nyctaginaceae), are described in detail based on specimens reared in the laboratory. Like other membracids, this species has five nymphal instars, not seven as previously reported. Morphological characters for identifying the different instars of G. projecta, determining the sex of later instars and distinguishing… Show more

“…The length of this stage is highly variable in most of the membracids species, and it could range from 6 to 33 days, as recorded by Gajalakshmi & Jayakumar (2011) for Oxyrhachis rufescens Walker (mean of 5.7 days), 8-10 days for Spissistilus festinus (Say) (Jordan 1952), or 33 days for G. projecta (Linares et al 2010).…”

“…Funkhouser (1917) mentioned that in most of the 7 Ceresa species found in the Cayuga Lake basin of New York state, eggs are laid in groups from 4 to 8. Linares et al (2010) described that the membracid Guayaquila projecta (Funkhouser) deposits its eggs on Bougainvillea glabra Choisy (Caryophyllales: Nyctaginaceae) in masses with a range of 24-72 eggs, and Snow & Dhileepan (2008) asserted that the eggs of the membracid Aconophora compressa Walker were deposited in batches.…”
