Becquartina [1] [2] is a genus of Asian cicadas in the tribe Gaeanini and the monotypic subtribe Becquartinina. This genus includes species that were previously placed in Gaeana .
The Catalogue of Life lists: [2]
Pomponia is a genus of cicadas from Asia. A group of species previously placed in Pomponia, containing the largest cicada species found on earth, have recently been moved to Megapomponia. However, the remaining species still form a very heterogeneous group and Duffels and Hayashi (2006) mentioned that several species should probably be transferred to genera like Terpnosia and Leptosemia.
Katoa is a genus of cicadas from Southeast Asia. The type species is Katoa tenmokuensis. Formerly placed in the tribe Tibicinini, after detailed morphological analysis, in 2012 Lee placed the genus among the Cicadettini, also of the subfamily Cicadettinae. After molecular phylogenetic analysis and physical examination, in 2018 Marshal, et al., placed the genus in its own tribe, Katoini, remaining in the subfamily Cicadettinae.
The Cicadinae are a subfamily of cicadas, containing the translucent cicadas. They are robust cicadas and many have gaudy colors, but they generally lack the butterfly-like opaque wing markings found in many species of the related Tibiceninae.
Purana is a genus of cicadas from Southeast Asia. Its distribution includes Java, Sumatra, Borneo, The Philippines, peninsular Malaysia, Thailand, India, Indochina, China, and Japan. Only one species has been recorded east of the Wallace Line, Purana celebensis, from Sulawesi. In all species the male possess two pairs of dark ventral abdominal tubercles on third and fourth sternites. The male opercula are rather short and generally do not reach beyond the posterior pair of tubercles. Related genera that also possess abdominal tubercles are Leptopsaltria, Maua, Nabalua and Tanna which together with Purana are in the subtribe Leptopsaltriina of the tribe Cicadini.
Cicadetta is a genus of generally small-bodied annual cicadas widespread across portions of the Palearctic, Oriental, and Ethiopian realms. In older scientific and taxonomic literature, this genus was popularly referred to as Melampsalta. These cicadas occur in a diverse spectrum of habitats, although most taxa are typically associated with weedy meadows and tallgrass prairie ecosystems. Several related species from North America were recently transferred to the genus Cicadettana.
Gaeana is a genus of cicadas, most members of which have colourful marking on their forewings, found across tropical and temperate Asia. Their bright wing patterns have been hypothesized as being a case of Batesian mimicry where the toxic models may be day-flying moths of the subfamilies Zygaeninae and Arctiinae. It is closely related to the genus Tosena but is differentiated by the exposed tympanum and lacks spines on the sides of the pronotum.
Euterpnosia is a genus of cicada native to the island of Formosa, the Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan, Hainan and mainland Asia - China, Bhutan, Nepal and Vietnam. The type species is Euterpnosia chibensisMatsumura, 1917.
The Dundubiini are a tribe of cicadas in the family Cicadidae, found in the Palearctic, Indomalaya, Australasia, and the Western Pacific. There are at least 20 genera and 180 described species in Dundubiini.
Abroma is a genus of cicadas in the family Cicadidae. There are at least 20 described species in Abroma.
Orapa is a genus of cicadas in the family Cicadidae, found in tropical Africa. About five described species are in Orapa. Orapa is the only genus of the tribe Orapini.
Panka is a genus of cicadas in the family Cicadidae. About nine described species are in Panka.
Hemidictyini is a tribe of cicadas in the family Cicadidae, found in the Neotropics and tropical Africa. There are at least two genera and two described species in Hemidictyini.
Pagiphora is a genus of cicadas in the family Cicadidae, found in the western Palearctic. There are about five described species in Pagiphora.
Leptopsaltriini is a tribe of cicadas in the family Cicadidae. There are at least 20 genera and 190 described species in Leptopsaltriini, found in the Palearctic, Nearctic, and Indomalaya.
Dundubia is a genus of cicadas in the subfamily Cicadinae and the type genus of the tribe Dundubiini.
Callogaeana is a genus of Asian cicadas in the tribe Gaeanini. This genus includes species that were previously placed in Gaeana.
Ambragaeana is a genus of Asian cicadas in the tribe Gaeanini. This genus includes species that were previously placed in Gaeana.
Callogaeana festiva, synonym Gaeana festiva, is a species of cicada in the tribe Gaeanini. It is found in East Asia from India and Bhutan to Indonesia.
Macrosemia is a genus of Asian cicadas in the tribe Dundubiini. Species records are from Taiwan and the eastern Asian mainland, including Indo-China.
