Scaralina marmorata is a species of planthopper in the family Fulgoridae, found throughout the southeastern United States.[1] It is one of four species (the others being Scaralina aethrinsula, Scaralina cristata, and Scaralina metcalfi) that were, for several decades, erroneously grouped together under a single name, Alphina glauca; this name is now treated as a synonym of S. marmorata.[1]
