Male E. binotata 'Ptelea' treehopper from an Illinois population signaling at 24 °C E. binotata male signal that contains 2 signals in 1 bout with 2 pulses each.

Nymphs of the treehopper Publilia concava have higher survivorship in the presence of ants even when predators are absent. This is suspected to be because uncollected honeydew leads to the growth of sooty mould, which may hinder excretion by treehoppers and photosynthesis by their host plants. Ant collection of honeydew thus allows treehoppers ...
As adults, keeled treehoppers spend the winter months in leaf litter and debris, finally emerging in March. [5] They begin to reproduce and implant their eggs on aster leafs. [5] During this time of year plants produce vulnerable growth and soft tissues which make it an optimal time to embed their eggs. [5]

The Virginia creeper was once placed in the genus Ampelopsis at the time that Thaddeus William Harris described the species in 1841, hence the species epithet ...
