Nephotettix
''Nephotettix'' is a genus of planthoppers in the subfamily Deltocephalinae and tribe Chiasmini. Species are mostly found in Asia, although two are from Africa. Known as 'green leafhoppers' of paddy/rice, ''Nephotettix cincticeps'' and ''N. virescens'' appear to be the most important Asian pest species in this genus: as vectors of viruses, such as tungro disease in rice. Species Based on the Global Biodiversity Information Facility listing, this genus includes: * ''Nephotettix afer'' Ghauri, 1968 (southern Africa) * ''Nephotettix cincticeps'' Uhler, 1896 (synonyms: various subspp. of ''Nephotettix apicalis'' and ''N. bipunctatus'') * ''Nephotettix malayanus'' Ishihara & Kawase, 1968 * ''Nephotettix modulatus'' Melichar, 1912 * ''Nephotettix nigropictus'' (Stål, 1870) (synonym ''N. nigropicta'') ** ''N. nigropictus yapicola'' Linnavuori * ''Nephotettix parvus'' Ishihara & Kawase, 1968 * ''Nephotettix plebeius'' Kirkaldy, 1906 * ''Nephotettix sympatricus'' Ghauri, 1971 * ''N ...

Tribe (biology)
In biology, a tribe is a taxonomic rank above genus, but below family and subfamily. It is sometimes subdivided into subtribes. By convention, all taxonomic ranks from genus upwards are capitalized, including both tribe and subtribe. In zoology, the standard ending for the name of a zoological tribe is "-ini". Examples include the tribes Caprini (goat-antelopes), Hominini (hominins), Bombini (bumblebees), and Thunnini (tunas). The tribe Hominini is divided into subtribes by some scientists; subtribe Hominina then comprises "humans". The standard ending for the name of a zoological subtribe is "-ina". In botany, the standard ending for the name of a botanical tribe is "-eae". Examples include the tribes Acalypheae and Hyacintheae. The tribe Hyacintheae is divided into subtribes, including the subtribe Massoniinae. The standard ending for the name of a botanical subtribe is "-inae". In bacteriology, the form of tribe names is as in botany, e.g., Pseudomonadeae, based on the ge ...
