Synecdoche (planthopper)

	Synecdoche (planthopper) ''Synecdoche'' is a genus of planthoppers comprising 22 described species in the family Achilidae. All species are New World in distribution, primarily Nearctic. Their immature stages (nymphs) are commonly encountered associated with fungus (usually in logs). Species These 22 species belong to the genus ''Synecdoche'': * ''Synecdoche albicosta'' (Van Duzee, 1917) * ''Synecdoche autumnalis'' O'Brien, 1971 * ''Synecdoche bifoveata'' O'Brien, 1971 * ''Synecdoche cara'' (Van Duzee, 1910) * ''Synecdoche clara'' (Van Duzee, 1917) * ''Synecdoche constellata'' (Ball, 1933) * ''Synecdoche costata'' (Van Duzee, 1910) * ''Synecdoche dimidiata'' (Van Duzee, 1910) * ''Synecdoche flavicosta'' O'Brien, 1971 * ''Synecdoche fusca'' (Van Duzee, 1908) * ''Synecdoche grisea'' (Van Duzee, 1908) * ''Synecdoche helenae'' (Van Duzee, 1918) * ''Synecdoche hypenor'' Fennah, 1978 * ''Synecdoche impunctata'' (Fitch, 1851) * ''Synecdoche irrorata'' (Van Duzee, 1914) * ''Synecdoche necopina'' (Van Duzee, 1918 ...

picture info	Planthopper A planthopper is any insect in the infraorder Fulgoromorpha, in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha, a group exceeding 12,500 described species worldwide. The name comes from their remarkable resemblance to leaves and other plants of their environment and that they often "hop" for quick transportation in a similar way to that of grasshoppers. However, planthoppers generally walk very slowly. Distributed worldwide, all members of this group are plant-feeders, though surprisingly few are considered pests. The infraorder contains only a single superfamily, Fulgoroidea. Fulgoroids are most reliably distinguished from the other Auchenorrhyncha by two features; the bifurcate ("Y"-shaped) anal vein in the forewing, and the thickened, three-segmented antennae, with a generally round or egg-shaped second segment (pedicel) that bears a fine filamentous arista. Overview Planthoppers are laterally flattened and hold their broad wings vertically, in a tent-like fashion, concealing the sides of ...

The term comes from Greek . Examples in common English use are ''suits'' for ''businessmen'', ''wheels'' for ''car'', and ''boots'' for ''soldiers''. The use of government buildings to refer to their occupants is metonymy and sometimes also synecdoche. "The Pentagon" for the United States Department of Defense can be considered synecdoche, because the building can be considered part of the bureaucracy. In the same way, using " Number 10" to mean "the Office of the Prime Minister" (of the United Kingdom) is a synecdoche. Definition Synecdoche is a rhetorical trope and a kind of metonymy—a figure of speech using a term to denote one thing to refer to a related thing.
