Abstract

Seven species of leafhopers occurring on mango in Thailand were studied. A new species, Idioscopus chumphoni Hongsaprug from Southern thailand is described and illustrated. Four species namely, Idioscopus nagpurensis (Pruthi), I. clavosignatus Maldonado - Capriles, Amrasca splendens ghauri and Mangganeura reticulata Ghauri are newly recorded. Two species, major pests of mango, formerly known as Idiocerus clypealis Lethierry and Idiocerus niveosparsus Lethierry are corrected to the proper genus of Idioscopus Baker.
