The purpose of was to evaluate the preference of the hoppers among various field crops and to the variations in their diversity. Diversity indices such as species diversity index, species evenness index, species richness index and relative abundance were evaluated. Ten species of hoppers were observed on seven field crops, and include Empoasca decipiens, Amrasca biguttula, Maiestas dorsalis, Macrosteles quadrilineatus, Macrosteles sexnotatus, Laodelphax striatellus, Agallia spp., Gurawa minorcephala, Platymetopius fidelis and Deltocephalus spp. There was maximum abundance of M. dorsalis on rice, E. decepiens on maize, M. quadrilineatus on oats and wheat and A. biguttula on French bean, sunflower and soyabean.
