The results imply that the traditional grouping of Cicadinae and Cicadettinae based on the presence or absence of timbal covers is unsound, which also supports related previous analyses based on morphology of Cicadidae. Related genera and tribes in Cicadidae need to be further addressed by phylogenetic analysis based on more morphological features combined with molecular data. © 2018 Elsevier GmbH.

The sound emission analysis is based on 21 recordings of different individuals from four localities in peninsular Malaysia and 10 recordings from one locality in Borneo. The results were compared to the published description of song pattern from Borneo. The song of Dundubia vaginata from peninsular Malaysia is clearly different from Bornean populations’ song. Short, narrow banded frequency modulated (FM) first part of bipartite phrases from Borneo resembles the end short part of phrases from peninsular Malaysia. The longer broadband parts of phrases in both populations have similar properties. A song pattern of unknown sympatric cicada species resembling the song of Bornean population has also been recorded at two localities in peninsular Malaysia. The most prominent difference is unequal length of phrases in the song of this unidentified but probably closely related cicada species. Dundubia vaginata seems to be not a single taxon but rather a complex of species.

Based on acoustic diagnostic characters, a seventh species Cicadetta cantilatrix sp. nov. belonging to the complex is described. The type- locality is in France but the species distribution area extends to Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Mace- donia and Montenegro. The calling song sequence consists of two phrases with different echemes. This calling pattern clearly differs from those produced by all other members of the complex, including C. cerdaniensis, previously mistaken with the new species. This description increases the acoustic diversity observed within a single cicada genus and sup- ports the hypothesis that sound communication may play a central role in speciation. Key words: Cryptic species, bioacoustics, Cicadidae, Cicadetta, geographic distribution, France Introduction Some biodiversity is not obvious when looking at preserved specimens. Various species do not differ in their morphology, but drastically in their behaviour. Such sibling, or cryptic, species are particularly evident in insects that produce sound to communicate: they look similar but sing differently.

For appropriate CP application, accurate species identification is essential. The Korean pharmacopoeia and the pharmacopoeia of the People’s Republic of China define Cryptotympana atrata as the only authentic source of CP. Species identification of commercially distributed CP based on morphological features, however, is difficult because of the combined packaging of many cicada exuviae in markets, damage during distribution, and processing into powder form. DNA-based molecular markers are an excellent alternative to morphological detection. In this study, the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences of C. atrata, Meimuna opalifera, Platypleura kaempferi, and Hyalessa maculaticollis were analyzed. On the basis of sequence alignments, we developed sequence-characterized amplified-region (SCAR) markers for efficient species identification. These markers successfully discriminated C.

Four species are described here for the first time: P. hermes sp. n. from Sabah and Sarawak, P. infuscata sp. n. from Borneo, P. obducta sp. n. from the Malayan Penin- sula, Sabah, and Sarawak, and P. sagittata sp. n. from the Malayan Peninsula.

  • Cicada Ovipositors Enhanced with Metals and Other Inorganic Elements Matthew S
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN An augmented wood-penetrating structure: Cicada ovipositors enhanced with metals and other inorganic elements Matthew S. Lehnert1*, Kristen E. Reiter1,2, Gregory A. Smith1 & Gene Kritsky3 Few insect species are as popular as periodical cicadas (Magicicada spp.). Despite representing an enormous biomass and numbers that exceed 370/m2 during mass emergences, the extended time period of the underground nymphal stages (up to 17 years) complicates investigations of their life history traits and ecology. Upon emergence, female cicadas mate and then use their ovipositors to cut through wood to lay their eggs. Given the ability to penetrate into wood, we hypothesized that the ovipositor cuticle is augmented with inorganic elements, which could increase hardness and reduce ovipositor fracturing. We used scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy to evaluate the material properties of ovipositors of four cicada species, including three species of periodical cicadas. We found 14 inorganic elements of the cuticle, of which P, Ca, Si, Mg, Na, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cl, K, and S show the highest concentrations (%wt) near the apex of the ovipositor, where other structural modifcations for penetrating wood are present. To the best of our knowledge, this is the frst report of metal deposits in the cuticle of true bugs (Hemiptera, >80,000 described species). Te independent origin of traits that perform similar functions represents a cornerstone of natural selection. Examples of such convergent evolution can be found across animal taxa: intelligence among birds and apes1, echolocation among bats and dolphins2, and fuid-feeding mechanisms among fies and butterfies3.
