2. Cixidia lapponica (Zetterstedt, 1828) View in CoL

DISTRIBUTION. Northern and central parts of Eastern Europe, forest zone of Russia from European part to the Russian Far East, Mongolia; apparently, is fairly common.

RECORD. Moscow Oblast, Pirogovo Forest Park north of Mytishchi , coniferous forest. First record in Moscow Oblast .

REMARK. Like all representatives of this genus, lives under the bark of dead coniferous trees and feeds on fungi growing on rotten wood; thus, it is almost impossible to find this species using traditional methods of collecting leafhoppers. For this reason, it is represented in collections by single specimens, and data on its distribution are very incomplete.
