Archijassidae is an extinct family of leafhoppers known from the Late Triassic to the early Late Cretaceous. It is the oldest member of Membracoidea, and is considered ancestral to modern leaf and treehoppers.

Taxonomy[]

Shcherbakov 2012 divided the family into 3 subfamilies, Shcherbakov considered the subfamily Dellasharinae to be ancestral to modern tree and leafhoppers.[1]
