Abstract:
The following four species of typhlocybine leafhoppers are recorded from Japan for the first time: Hebata (Signatasca) fissurata (Dworakowska), Nikkotettixcuspidata Qin et Zhang, Tautoneurapolymitusa Oh et Jung, Aguriahana sichotana (Anufriev). Among these species, N. cuspidata and T. polymitusa are considered likely alien species, based on their host association with non-native plants and their occurrence primarily in urban environments. Biological notes, host plant information, and taxonomic remarks are provided for each species.
