“…With the exception of B. melaena, none of these species were registered in the canopy or light trap. Membracis luizae is found on many edge plants, exotic and native (Sakakibara & Evangelista, 2010), and some individuals of this species were collected in trays inside the forest which can be explained by the location of the trays close to the edge, an explanation that also holds for E. squamigera, E. concolor, and L. spiralis. Enchenopa gladius and Notocera camelina (Sakakibara, 1977) (Figure 2A) were considered understory species because they were captured mainly in trays and are the only species whose individuals were sighted inside the forest.…”

Membracidae diversity (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha) in an Atlantic Forest area, Paraíba, Brazil, with preliminary comments on collection methods, spatial distribution and estimated species richness

In order to document the Membracidae of an area of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest in Paraíba, four collection methods were employed, distributed in 100 sample units during ten days in November 2014. A total of 1,182 membracids of 27 species were collected. The assemblages were marked with a high dominance, since six species accounted for 80.63% of the total number of individuals captured. Species with more than ten individuals were associated with the three environments of the forest: canopy, understory, and edge. The importance of the four sampling methods in the final membracid composition was evaluated through the Jaccard similarity index and its complement, where the values of complementarity were superior to the values of similarity, suggesting the dissimilarity of assemblages inventoried by each method. The observed richness corresponds to 90.0% and 79.4% of the richness estimated by Chao1 and Chao2. The richness estimated by Chao1 is within the upper limit of the confidence interval (95%) in the last plot of the species accumulation curve, while the richness estimated by Chao2 is above this limit. The additional sampling effort needed to collect 95% of the estimated richness is 969 individuals for Chao1 and 317 sample units for Chao2.

The first list of Aetalionidae and Membracidae species for western Acre is presented, including the Alto do Juruá regions of Serra do Divisor National Park and the Campus Floresta of the Federal University of Acre. In total, 94 species of treehoppers were collected, of which Centrotinae (Membracidae) is recorded for the first time for Brazil (Abelus maculatus Schimidt), another 16 species are new Brazilian records, and 69 species (Aetalionidae and Membracidae) are new records for Acre. Data on type locality, geographic distribution and images of all species are presented. The males of Lophyraspis fenestrata Sakakibara & Creão-Duarte and Erechtia sanguinolenta (Fairmaire) are known for the first time. The species diversity was compared to four other treehopper surveys in the Amazon region, with similarity indices of about 43.6% for Colombian Amazon (at least 650 km away), 27.6% for Panguana Biological Research Station, Peru (250 km), 20.2% for Adolpho Ducke Forest Reserve, Brazil (1,600 km) and 8.5% for Villa Carmen Biological Station/Los Amigos Biological Station, Peru (600/700 km). The estimated richness of Serra do Divisor National Park was just over 70%, suggesting that local diversity could be significantly higher than that presented in this study.
