The sage leafhopper is found throughout the world. | | |
| | | Eupteryx aurata prefer habitats with rich vegetation. This also includes water edges with herbaceous vegetation. They feed by sucking plant juices from single cells of leaf tissue (mesophyll). Tiny white spots can then be seen on the leaves as the saliva of Eupteryx aurata destroys chlorophyll. Their preferred food plants include nettles (Urtica), Labiatae (Lamiaceae) and potato (Solanum tuberosum). | | |
| | Adult Eupteryx aurata reach body lengths of 3. 5 – 4. 5 mm. Their bodies, may be lighter or darker and they have a yellow base colour with black markings. There are 2 dark spots/patches on the head and on the pronotum. On the scutellum, there are also 2 black spot... | | |
| | After mating, the fertilized females lay their eggs in plant tissue. The larvae of Eupteryx aurata develop into adult cicada in 5 stages. The body structure of the larvae is roughly equivalent to that of the adults. In Central Europe, the 2nd generation each year overwinter as eggs. | | |
