Yes there are leafhopper viruses. All insects are susceptible to viruses. Leafhoppers have been shown to be infectedd with DNA and/or RNA viruses (Hunter, W., USDA, ARS). They may also be infected with multiple viruses at one time. Leafhoppers, some of which are called sharpshooter leafhoppers, like the glassy-winged sharpshooter also transmit plant viruses as well as plant infecting bacteria (one example: Xylella fastidiosa).

Emerging discoveries in leafhopper viruses are trying to use these naturally adapted pathogens to suppress leafhopper pest populations.
