Among the Auchenorrhyncha there are also Metcalfa pruinosa (Flatidae), Scaphoideus titanus (Cicadellidae), Stictocephala bisonia Kopp & Yonke (=Ceresa bubalus) (Membracidae) and Acanalonia conica (in Italy). Apart from A. conica the others have become well established in central Europe and increasing their range.
