Leafhoppers in the Typhlocybinae subfamily don't play by the usual bug-symbiosis rules. Unlike their relatives, they rely on assorted non-essential bacteria. Why? Their nutrient-rich diet! Others, like Eurymelinae, need complex microbe pairs for amino acids. This ancestral diet shift shows how ch...
