Abstract

The phenology of Auchenorrhyncha of elm was studied in northeastem
Italy; in particular potential vectors of the phytoplasma associated with elm
yellows disease (EY) were considered. Tue adults of Auchenorrhyncha were
monitored on elm (Ulmus minor Miller) using yellow sticky traps. Out of 38 species
identified, seven are known to be vectors of phytoplasmas and three others
belong to genera including vectors. Two species, Philaenus spumarius (Linnaeus)
and Allygidius atomarius (Fabricius), are known vectors of the phytoplasma associated
with EY. On the basis of adult phenology smμe suggestions on biologica!
cycle of some leafhoppers are given.
