Among them, one species belong to Abroma StSl: Abroma reducta (Jacobi, 1902), two species belong to Lemuriana Distant: Lemuriana apicalis (Xjermar, 1830) and L. vinhcuuensis Pham & Yang, 2010, and two belong to Hea Distant: Hea fasciata Distant, 1906, H. yunnanensis Chou et Yao, 1995. L. vinhcuuensis Pham & Yang is known only from Vietnam. A key to genera and species of Taphurini from Vietnam based on the male adults is also given. A map with collection localities and data of examined material are provided. Key words: Cicadas, key identification, morphology, distribution. INTRODUCTION There are 31 genera belonging to tribe Taphurini, subfamily Cicadettinae, family Cicadidae in the world. They are distributed in all faunal regions except the poorly represented in the Palaearctic. The first record species of the tribe Taphurini in Vietnam was made by Jacobi in 1902 with the species Abroma reducta (Jacobi, 1902). In 1917, Distant recorded the second species Lemuriana apicalis Distant, 1917. Pham and Yang (2009) recently recorded two more species Hea fasciata Distant, 1906 and Hea yunnanensis Chou et Yao, 1995). In 2010, Pham & Yang described a new species Lemuriana vinhcuuensis Pham & Yang. This is the fifth species ofthe tribe Taphurini. MATERIAL AND METHODS Specimens were collected by netting and light trapping at the localities indicated in the item of material examined. Previously collected specimens were included in our evaluations. Specimens are deposited at the Department of Insect Systematics of the Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources, Hanoi, and the Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris. The tribal classification of this study is based mainly on that of Moulds (2005). Genus and species names, as well as synonymies, follow the catalogues of Metcalf (1963), and Lee (2008). 261 HQI NGHI CON TRONG HQC QUOC GIA LAN THif 7 - HA NQI 2011 Specimens examined are listed by provinces (given in bold). Abbreviations are as follows: lEBR (Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources), MNHN (Museum National d'Histoire Nsiturelle, Paris), NP (National Park), NR (Natural Reserve). The map showing the collecting localities for this study was created using the software CFF (Barbier & Rasmont, 2000).

Taphurini Kato, 1932: 171. Type genus. Taphura Distant (type species T. misella Stal). Remark. Males differ from other members of the subfamily Cicadettinae by having the aedeagal basal plate with the ventral rib rod - like, suspended with attachments only at ends. The claspers are widely separated except in Abricta occidentalis that represents a new genus. Males can be distinguished from those of the Cicadettini by having the timbals not extending below the level ofthe wing bases, and the timbal ribs are long and closely spaced and at least 5 in number. Females differ from the Chlorocystini and Prasiini by having the head broader than the maximum width ofthe pronotum. Females cannot be distinguished from those of the Cicadettini in which the fore wing veins M and CnA meet the basal cell separated (Moulds, 2005).

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.

  • 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.

  • An Appraisal of the Higher Classification of Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadoidea) with Special Reference to the Australian Fauna
    © Copyright Australian Museum, 2005 Records of the Australian Museum (2005) Vol. 57: 375–446. ISSN 0067-1975 An Appraisal of the Higher Classification of Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadoidea) with Special Reference to the Australian Fauna M.S. MOULDS Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2010, Australia [email protected] ABSTRACT. The history of cicada family classification is reviewed and the current status of all previously proposed families and subfamilies summarized. All tribal rankings associated with the Australian fauna are similarly documented. A cladistic analysis of generic relationships has been used to test the validity of currently held views on family and subfamily groupings. The analysis has been based upon an exhaustive study of nymphal and adult morphology, including both external and internal adult structures, and the first comparative study of male and female internal reproductive systems is included. Only two families are justified, the Tettigarctidae and Cicadidae. The latter are here considered to comprise three subfamilies, the Cicadinae, Cicadettinae n.stat. (= Tibicininae auct.) and the Tettigadinae (encompassing the Tibicinini, Platypediidae and Tettigadidae). Of particular note is the transfer of Tibicina Amyot, the type genus of the subfamily Tibicininae, to the subfamily Tettigadinae. The subfamily Plautillinae (containing only the genus Plautilla) is now placed at tribal rank within the Cicadinae. The subtribe Ydiellaria is raised to tribal rank. The American genus Magicicada Davis, previously of the tribe Tibicinini, now falls within the Taphurini. Three new tribes are recognized within the Australian fauna, the Tamasini n.tribe to accommodate Tamasa Distant and Parnkalla Distant, Jassopsaltriini n.tribe to accommodate Jassopsaltria Ashton and Burbungini n.tribe to accommodate Burbunga Distant.

  • An Appraisal of the Cicadas of the Genus <I>Abricta</I> StÅL and Allied Genera
    © Copyright Australian Museum, 2003 Records of the Australian Museum (2003) Vol. 55: 245–304. ISSN 0067-1975 An Appraisal of the Cicadas of the Genus Abricta Stål and Allied Genera (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadidae) M.S. MOULDS Invertebrate Zoology Division, Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2010, Australia [email protected] ABSTRACT. The cicada genus Abricta Stål currently contains a heterogeneous group of species which is considered best divided into four genera. Abricta sensu str. includes only A. brunnea (Fabricius) and A. ferruginosa (Stål) which are confined to Mauritius and neighbouring islands. The monotypic genus Chrysolasia n.gen., is proposed for a single Guatemalan species, A. guatemalena (Distant). Another monotypic genus, Aleeta n.gen., is proposed for the species A. curvicosta (Germar) from eastern Australia. Fourteen Australian species are placed in Tryella n.gen.: castanea Distant, noctua Distant, rubra Goding & Froggatt, stalkeri Distant, willsi Distant, adela n.sp., burnsi n.sp., crassa n.sp., graminea n.sp., infuscata n.sp., kauma n.sp., lachlani n.sp., occidens n.sp. and ochra n.sp. The five remaining species currently placed in Abricta (borealis Goding & Froggatt, burgessi Distant, cincta Fabricius and occidentalis Goding & Froggatt from Australia plus pusilla Fabricius of unknown locality) do not belong to Abricta or closely allied genera. Cladistic analyses place C. guatemalena basally on all trees. The Mauritian genus Abricta sensu str., and the genera, Abroma Stål and Monomatapa Distant, form a sister group to all Australian species. There is strong evidence suggesting that Abricta and Abroma are synonymous. Keys to genera and species and maps of distribution are provided.

Eu não podia deixar de pegar emprestada uma analogia contada a mim certa vez, e compará-lo à jornada de Frodo Bolseiro até as Fendas da Perdição (nesse caso a defesa da tese). Mas para a minha sorte eu tinha ao meu lado pessoas (como os membros da sociedade do anel) sem as quais esse caminho tempestuoso teria sido bem mais difícil de transpassar. Agradeço imensamente todo o carinho e apoio as três pessoas mais importantes da minha vida: meu pai, minha mãe e meu “marido” Alexandre.

    Zootaxa 4438 (3): 443–470 ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) http://www.mapress.com/j/zt/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2018 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4438.3.2 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:8AC0F062-C1DC-4E71-84C1-31342933A398 Cicada fossils (Cicadoidea: Tettigarctidae and Cicadidae) with a review of the named fossilised Cicadidae M. S. MOULDS Australian Museum Research Institute, 1 William Street, Sydney N.S.W. 2010. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Cicadoidea comprise two families, the Cicadidae and the Tettigarctidae. This paper evaluates the status and taxonomy of all named Cicadoidea fossils belonging to the Cicadidae. Shcherbakov (2009) has previously revised the Tettigarctidae. Two new genera are described, Camuracicada gen. n. and Paleopsalta gen. n., for Camuracicada aichhorni (Heer, 1853) comb. n. and Paleopsalta ungeri (Heer, 1853) comb. n. A lectotype is designated for Cicada emathion Heer, 1853. Cicada grandiosa Scudder, 1892 is transferred to Hadoa Moulds, 2015 as Hadoa grandiosa comb. n.; Oncotympana lapidescens J. Zhang, 1989 is transferred to Hyalessa China, 1925 as Hyalessa lapidescens comb. n.; Meimuna incasa J. Zhang, Sun & X. Zhang, 1994 and Meimuna miocenica J. Zhang & X. Zhang, 1990 are transferred to Cryptotympana Stål, 1861 as Cryptotympana incasa comb. n. and Cryptotympana miocenica comb. n.; Tibicen sp. aff. japonicus Kato, 1925 is transferred to Auritibicen as Auritibicen sp. aff. japonicus comb. n., and Terpnosia sp. aff. vacua Olivier, 1790 is trans- ferred to Yezoterpnosia Matsumura, 1917 as Yezoterpnosia sp. aff. vacua comb. n. The generic placement of two other fossils is changed to reflect current classification, those species now being Auritibicen bihamatus (Motschulsky, 1861) and Yezoterpnosia nigricosta (Motschulsky, 1866).
