Adult Emerging after the final molt, the adult empoasca vitis has fully developed wings and reproductive organs. The body is hardened with distinct coloration patterns. The adult focuses on feeding and reproduction.

Habitat Preferences of Empoasca vitis Through Different Life Stages
The eggs of empoasca vitis are usually laid on the underside of leaves, especially along the veins, in the vineyards they are known to inhabit. Nymphs of empoasca vitis are found on the lower parts of plants, near the roots, adept at hiding to avoid predators. Adult empoasca vitis, when they emerge, prefer the tender foliage and stems of host plants for feeding and mating, often conspicuously hopping or flying when disturbed. Searching for these various stages requires gentle examination of leaves for eggs, careful observations around the base of plants for nymphs, and patient stalking among foliage to spot the elusive adults.

Agricultural Pests

Empoasca vitis, as both an adult and nymph, feeds by sucking plant fluids from leaves, predominantly affecting beans, potatoes, lettuce, and eggplant. This can lead to 'hopperburn' where leaves curl and discolor, potentially causing severe crop losses. Mild infestations stress plants, while severe ones can halt growth. This damage could contribute to food supply issues, directly impacting human livelihoods.
