Abstract

The family Cicadellidae (Insecta: Hemiptera) has limited inventories of its fauna in Mexican territory. In the present contribution, records of the leafhopper fauna in the state of Yucatán are provided, where a list of 45 species, 31 genera, 13 tribes and seven subfamilies are disclosed. Of these, five species are new records for Mexico and 15 new state records (14 in Yucatán and 1 in Jalisco). For all species, current known distribution and outside Mexico is provided. In addition, notes on the known host plants and their importance for the agricultural sector in the country are included.
