葉䗛屬(學名:Phyllium)也稱葉蟲,是竹節蟲目(䗛目)葉竹節蟲科(葉䗛科)的一屬。主要分佈於東半球的熱帶和亞熱帶地區。[1]本屬目前記錄約31種[2],是葉竹節蟲科中種類最多的一屬。
形態特徵
葉䗛屬於一種大型昆蟲,體型寬扁,通體多為綠色,但也有其他色型,脈紋清晰,外型擬態模仿樹葉。頭部呈橢圓形,頭頂稍扁平,光滑或距顆粒。眼部為半球形。雄蟲觸角發達,側扁,櫛狀或鋸齒形,被長軟毛,向後越達腹部中央;雌蟲觸角短棒狀,一般較短。口器為咀嚼式。前胸較短,近於三角形。前翅革質,雄蟲較窄短,雌蟲發達,幾乎蓋滿腹部;後翅膜質、透明,雄蟲發達,雌蟲常退化或消失。[1]
葉䗛屬中本來種類眾多,並且分為四個亞屬,葉䗛亞屬、麗葉䗛亞屬、飾葉䗛亞屬、舞葉䗛亞屬 ,但2021因為分子生物學以及生物地理學上的證據,陸續將這之中的一些物種挪出,像是葉䗛亞屬之中的一些物種移到新屬隱葉䗛屬 (Cryptophyllium)之下[3],麗葉䗛亞屬、飾葉䗛亞屬、舞葉䗛亞屬也各提升為屬級,麗葉䗛屬(Pulchriphyllium)、飾葉䗛屬(Comptaphyllium)、舞葉䗛屬(Walaphyllium)[4],因此目前葉䗛屬底下已無亞屬之分類單元。
