Abstract

Cicadellinae leafhoppers are important vectors of crop plants pathogens. In Brazil, one of these vectors is the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa, which infects citrus, coffee and plum. There is little information available on occurrence, distribution and biology of cicadellines in coffee. A list of 141 specimens, collected in alternate months, between June 2009 and April 2010, on a coffee plantation located in Santa Teresa Municipality, Espírito Santo State, Brazil, is presented. These specimens represent 16 genera and 21 species belonging to the two Cicadellinae tribes, Cicadellini and Proconiini. The genus Graphocephala is, for the first time, recorded from Brazil.
