Orellana strepens

Description

Orellana strepens (Amyot & Audinet-Serville, 1843)

Cicada tympanum Palisot de Beauvois 1813: 132, plate 20, Fig. 5 (Saint-Domingue).

Zammara strepens Amyot & Audinet-Serville 1843: 469 nomen novum pro Cicada tympanum Palisot de Beauvois, 1813 nec Cicada tympanum Fabricius, 1803 (Brazil).

Remarks. As outlined above, specimens of Orellana strepens possess three segmented tarsi. The image of the specimen in Thouvenot (2007) is identical to the holotype of Zammara conflutrimacula n. sp. which has two segmented tarsi so it cannot be Orellana strepens. The species is removed from the French Guiana cicada fauna as the only previous record is now assigned to a different species.

Distribution. The species is found currently only in Brazil (Goemans 2016).
