Different Body Surface Microstructures Induce Different Behavior between Adult and Nymph of the Tea Green Leafhopper (Empoasca onukii Matsuda)when Touching Water
The tea green leaf hopper (Empoasca onukii Matsuda) is a serious pest threatening tea production throughout China.The nymphs and adults of the leafhopper pierce and suck the sap of tender tea shoots, and female adults lay eggs into the tender stems.It is difficult to control it for many reasons, while one important point is for its highly mobile.Its adult leaps and its nymph runs quickly along the tea stem when disturbed and both its adult and nymph are like to hide behind the leaf.So people think insecticide spraying is influenced for its escaping.On the other hand, E.onukii could not move when there were dews on the tea leaves.Rain and wind could also interfere with natural population of E.onukii.So the aim of our study was to investigate the impact when spraying water to stimulate the insect.
