Description
Herrera ancilla (Stål, 1864)
Cicada marginella Walker 1858a: 21. (Orizaba, Vera Cruz, Mexico)
Carineta ancilla Stål 1864: 57.
Remarks. The green (or faded to ochraceous) head and thorax with a castaneous or tawny abdomen easily distinguishes it from the completely piceous body of H. lugubrina lugubrina (Stål, 1864). The piceous on the head and contrasting abdomen distinguish it brom H. nigratorquata n. sp. and H. sigillata n. sp.
Distribution. The species has been reported previously from Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Panama (Metcalf 1963c; Sanborn 2013; 2014; Sanborn & Maes 2012; Maes et al. 2012). The species was reported to be collected between 2000–3000 ft on Volcan de Chiriqui (Distant 1883) in Panama. It was reported as being collected in Panama by Wolda & Ramos (1992) but without locality data.
Material examined. “Panama: Panama Prov11 / Reserva Sobrina Pipe- / line road, 9 km mark / VI–25–1994, blacklight / N. Smith & D. Mitchell ” one male (UCDC); “ PANAMÁ: Coclé, / El Valle, VI– / 10–13–1985 E. / Riley & D. Rider // LSAM / 0300509” one female (LSAM).
