Family of planthoppers
Dictyopharidae is a
family of
planthoppers , related to the
Fulgoridae . The family comprises nearly 760 species in more than 150 genera
[1] which are grouped into two subfamilies,
Dictyopharinae and
Orgeriinae .
Thanatodictya tillyardi
Like all other fulgoroids, they have the antennae arising on the side of the head below the compound eye (not between the eyes as in the
Cicadoidea ). Many species have an elongated frons. Those that do not have this elongation may have 2 or 3 carinae (keels). The median ocellus is absent.

Mozzela Baptista, Ferreira & Da-Silva, 2006
A number of species are known from the fossil record, which reaches back to the
Santonian age of the Late Cretaceous. The oldest fossil,
Netutela annunciator belonging to the extinct
dictyopharine tribe
Netutelini , was described from
Taymyr amber on the
Taymyr Peninsula of Russia.
[4] Younger amber fossils include the amber genus
Alicodoxa described from Eocene
Baltic and
Rovno ambers
[5] Compression fossil species include the
Ypresian
Limfjordia breineri from the
Fur Formation in Denmark and the
Priabonian
Florissantia elegans from the
Florissant Formation , Colorado.
