Box 290, SI-1001 Ljubljana, Slovenia; e-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author Abstract - We investigated the songs of the cicada Dundubia vaginata Fabricius 1787. 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.

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.

  • 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.

Kakati 1, Patricia Kiewhuo 1 and Sapu Changkija 2 1 Department of Zoology, Nagaland University, Lumami, Nagaland 798627, India; [email protected] (L.N.K.); [email protected] (P.K.) 2 Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Nagaland University, Medziphema, Nagaland 797106, India; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 June 2020; Accepted: 19 June 2020; Published: 30 June 2020 Abstract: Located at the north-eastern part of India, Nagaland is a relatively unexplored area having had only few studies on the faunal diversity, especially concerning insects. Although the practice of entomophagy is widespread in the region, a detailed account regarding the utilization of edible insects is still lacking. The present study documents the existing knowledge of entomophagy in the region, emphasizing the currently most consumed insects in view of their marketing potential as possible future food items. Assessment was done with the help of semi-structured questionnaires, which mentioned a total of 106 insect species representing 32 families and 9 orders that were considered as health foods by the local ethnic groups. While most of the edible insects are consumed boiled, cooked, fried, roasted/toasted, some insects such as Cossus sp., larvae and pupae of ants, bees, wasps, and hornets as well as honey, bee comb, bee wax are consumed raw. Certain edible insects are either fully domesticated (e.g., Antheraea assamensis, Apis cerana indica, and Samia cynthia ricini) or semi-domesticated in their natural habitat (e.g., Vespa mandarinia, Vespa soror, Vespa tropica tropica, and Vespula orbata), and the potential of commercialization of these insects and some other species as a bio-resource in Nagaland exists.

In this issue, Preston Murphy puts his scientific mind to work on years my friends and I have been using a bright light to attract the great emperors another fascinating group of animals, the cicadas. and other moths from the night forest, and we have always noticed the occa- sional cicada that makes a noisy entrance among the quiet moths. While cicadas are rarely seen, their mating calls con- stitute a large part of the insect chorus that fills the tropical forest both day and night. In Europe, cicadas are loved as harbingers of summer vacations along the Mediterranean sea coast. However, most species are found in the tropics, especially South-east Asia with some 850 species (including ~115 in Peninsular Malaysia) out of some 2,500 species worldwide. A recent book, The Cicadas of Thailand Boulard (2006) tempted me to first document and then try to identify the cicadas of Fraser’s Hill. The books Birds of Thailand and Butterflies of Thailand are valuable guides for most of the Malaysian species, so why not the cicadas? So I set about the task.

Two new species, Euterpnosia elongata Lee and Euterpnosia laii Lee, are described. Informations on the biology and male chirpings are also provided. The distribution data of all known species is given. Key words description, distribution, fauna INTRODUCTION This series of papers aims to cover and provide the available information on the taxonomy, biology, and distribution of the cicadid species in Taiwan. In this study, however, only adult specimens are examined. A total of 55 species belonging to 21 genera are listed as the Taiwanese cicadas, including a new genus and four new species throughout the present study. Five species are synonymized. Three species are newly considered as erroneous records from Taiwan due to mislabeling or misidentification. In the first part of this study, 20 species under nine genera with four cicadine tribes, Platypleurini, Tibicenini, Polyneurini, and Dundubiini (subtribe Dundubiina) were included (Lee and Hayashi, 2003). As the second part, this paper includes 17 species under six genera in a cicadine tribe, Dundubiini (a part of the subtribe Cicadina).

A new genus, Biura gen. nov., is erected within the subtribe Aolina Boulard, 2012, designating Haphsa bicolora Sanborn, 2009 as the type species. This new genus is distinguished from all other genera in Aolina by the light- colored body lacking prominent markings, non-infuscated wings, very small and short male operculum, thin and long uncal lobes, and distinctly prominent basal lobes of the pygofer. Key words: cicada, new genus, new combination, Haphsa Introduction The subtribe Aolina Boulard, 2012 belongs to the tribe Dundubiini Atkinson, 1886 in the subfamily Cicadinae Latreille, 1802 as discussed by Lee & Emery (2014) and Lee (2014). Aolina currently is comprised of eight genera according to Lee & Emery (2014) and Lee (2014): Sinosemia Matsumura, 1927, Meimuna Distant, 1905, Sinapsaltria Kato, 1940, Sinotympana Lee, 2009, Haphsa Distant, 1905, Kaphsa Lee, 2012, Zaphsa Lee & Emery, 2014, and Khimbya Distant, 1905. A key to the eight genera of Aolina was provided by Lee & Emery (2014). A peculiar Aolinine species described by the second author (Sanborn, 2009) from Vietnam, Haphsa bicolora Sanborn, 2009 (Fig.
