Derbidae is a family of insects in the order Hemiptera, the true bugs. It is one of the largest and most diverse families of planthoppers.[1] It is widely distributed around the world, especially in the tropics, and with many species in subtropical and temperate regions.[2]
Adult derbids feed on plants, and nymphs feed on fungi,[3] Many adults are host-specific, feeding on a single plant species, and hide under leaves.[4]
