Cladonota
''Cladonota'' is a genus of neotropical treehoppers (family Membracidae) widespread from Mexico to South America. They are known for their elaborate pronotum shapes, hypothesized to play a role in camouflage or mate recognition, although their function is not yet known with certainty. Previously described as a subgenus of ''Sphongophorus'', it was recognized as a genus of its own right in 1997 after the latter was synonymized with ''Hypsauchenia''. Description The genus is distinguished from other treehoppers by its highly elaborate pronotum, which in many species bears an elongated, curved anterior process or an ornate intermediate process, giving them an appearance variously called "grotesque" and "particularly charismatic". Resembling various natural elements from twigs, leaves and seeds to bird droppings, the pronotum is believed to help them camouflage in their natural habitat. Other explanations for the pronotum's structure include mate recognition, as well as providing an ...

Treehopper
Treehoppers (more precisely typical treehoppers to distinguish them from the Aetalionidae) and thorn bugs are members of the family Membracidae, a group of insects related to the cicadas and the leafhoppers. About 3,200 species of treehoppers in over 400 genera are known.Treehoppers.

They are found on all continents except Antarctica; only five species are known from . Individual treehoppers usually live for only a few months.
