白刺萤叶蝉以幼虫及成虫取食白刺叶部。一年2代,以幼虫在沙土中越冬,翌年4月中旬开始活动。第一代幼虫5月中旬始见,第一、二代成虫分别于6月中旬、8月下旬出现,9月下旬成虫开始越冬。成虫有多次交尾、产卵习性。寿命15—25天,卯期5—10天。卵期啮小蜂寄生率较高。大发生时,用有机磷化学药剂进行超低量喷雾效果显著。 White-leaf firefly cicadas take larvae and adults feeding Nitraria. Two generations a year, with larvae overwintering in the sand, activities began in mid-April the following year. The first generation of larvae began to see in mid-May. The first and second generations of adults appeared in mid-June and late August, respectively. In late September, adults started to winter. Adult mating many times, spawning habits. Life expectancy 15-25 days, mast 5-10 days. Egg-biting bees parasitism rate higher. Large occurs, the use of organic phosphorus chemicals for low-volume spray effect is significant.
