Extract

Six North American species of leafhoppers of the genus Aphrodes were listed, with 36 synonyms, by Oman (1949). Examination of the male genitalia has revealed not more than four species. Because of the extensive individual variation it is often difficult to identify some of the species on external characters alone. The male genitalia, however, show good specific characters (Figs. 1-5).
