THE OF THE PURANA NEBULILINEA GROUP (HOMOPTERA, ) WITH A NOTE ON THEIR SONGS

Kos, M & M. Gogala, 2000. The cicadas of the Purana nebulilinea group (Homoptera, Cica- didae) with a note on their songs. – Tijdschrift voor Entomologie 143: 1-25, figs. 1-44, tables 1-2 [ISSN 0040-7496]. Published 5 July 2000. The Purana nebulilinea group is erected for six species, distributed in , Sumatra and mainland . P. nebulilinea and P. pryeri are redescribed. P. pryeri is taken out of the synonymy with P. nebulilinea. Four species are described as new (P. capricornis, P. montana, P. niasica and P. parvituberculata). The song of P. nebulilinea is described and some notes about the ecology and distribution of the group are given. A phylogeny of the group is presented and some remarks are made on the phylogenetic relationships between the species of Purana and the taxo- nomic status of the . A key to males and distribution maps for the species are provided. Correspondence: Martijn Kos, Instituut voor Systematiek en Populatie Biologie (Zoölogisch Museum), University of Amsterdam, P.O.
