# List of Zoraida species

Zoraida is a large genus of planthoppers in the tribe Zoraidini of the family Derbidae. As of 2024, it comprises three subgenera and around 120 species. The species are found in tropical and some subtropical parts of Asia, Africa and parts of Australia and the western Pacific. This page provides for each subgenus an overview of the species, their distribution records and other details. "Wing length" means the length of the forewing which have been converted in some cases from measurements of expanded forewings (wingspan) according to the formula <half of wingspan minus 10%>, derived from published illustrations.
