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.

THE CICADA TRIBE Taphurini (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) from VIETNAM, with KEY to SPECIES
HQI NGH] CQN TRONG HpC QUCC GIA LAN THLf 7 - HA NQl 2011 THE CICADA TRIBE Taphurini (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) FROM VIETNAM, WITH KEY TO SPECIES Pham Hong Thai Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources Jeng - Tze Yang National Chung Hsing University ABSTRACT In this paper, five cicada species belonging to three genera: Abroma Stai, Lemuriana Distant, and Hea Distant are included. 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.

The Cicada Genus Muda Distant (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) from Sundaland: Species and Relationships J.P
Tijdschrift voor Entomologie 161 (2018) 131–154 The cicada genus Muda Distant (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) from Sundaland: species and relationships J.P. Duffels A diagnosis is provided of the cicada genus Muda Distant, 1897, with descriptions, illustrations and distribution maps for the five species found in Sundaland. Three of these, Muda obtusa (Walker, 1858), M. virguncula (Walker, 1856) and M. tua Duffels, 2004, are redescribed. Muda beccarii (Distant, 1888) and M. concolor Distant, 1897 are junior synonyms of M. virguncula. Abroma tahanensis (Moulton, 1923) is transferred to Muda and redescribed. Muda kinabaluana is described as new to science, and is very peculiar, missing the timbals. An identification key is provided. Characters and taxonomic position of Muda kuroiwae (Matsumura, 1913) from the Ryukyu Islands of southern Japan are discussed. Muda is characterized by two supposed synapomorphies, viz., the mediodorsal carina of the male pygofer and the movable upper pygofer lobes; these characters are also found in species of Katoa. Further comparative study of Muda and Katoa is needed to reveal their relationships. J.P. Duffels, Naturalis Biodiversity Center, PO Box 9517, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands.

INSECT MOUTHPARTS: Ascertaining the Paleobiology of Insect Feeding Strategies
Annu. Rev. Ecol. Syst. 1997. 28:153-93 Copyright @ 1997 by Annual Reviews Inc. All rights reserved INSECT MOUTHPARTS: Ascertaining the Paleobiology of Insect Feeding Strategies Conrad C. Labandeira Department of Paleobiology, Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC 20560; e-mail: [email protected] KEY WORDS: mouthpart class, functional feeding group, dietary guild, morphological data, ecological attributes, mouthpart classes, fossil record, plant-insect interactions ABSTRACT One of the most intensively examined and abundantly documented structures in the animal world is insect mouthparts. Major structural types of extant insect mouthparts are extensive, consisting of diverse variations in element structure within each of the five mouthpart regions•labrum, hypopharynx, mandibles, maxillae, and labium. Numerous instances of multielement fusion both within and among mouthpart regions result in feeding organs capable of ingesting in diverse ways foods that are solid, particulate, and liquid in form. Mouthpart types have a retrievable and interpretable fossil history in well-preserved insect deposits. In addition, the trace-fossil record of insect-mediated plant damage, gut contents, coprolites, and insect-relevant floral features provides complementary data doc- umenting the evolution of feeding strategies during the past 400 million years. From a cluster analysis of insect mouthparts, I recognize 34 fundamental mouthpart classes among extant insects and their geochronological evolution by a five-phase pattern. This pattern is characterized, early in the Devonian, by coarse partitioning of food by mandibulate and piercing-and-sucking mouthpart classes, followed by a rapid rise in herbivore mouthpart types for fluid- and solid-feeding during the Late Carboniferous and Early Permian.
