Description

ADDITIONAL BRAZILIAN CICADA RECORDS

The following species have been reported from Brazil but were not included in the synoptic list of Nunes et al. (2023). Current tribal affiliations are provided in parentheses for each taxon. Guyalna aldegondae (Kulgatz, 1902 in Kulgatz & Melichar, 1902) rev. stat., n. comb. (Fidicinini), Guyalna dyticamazona Sanborn, 2020a (Fidicinini) (Sanborn 2020a), Orialella boliviana (Distant, 1904) (Fidicinini) (Sanborn 2019a), Carineta acommosis Sanborn, 2020a (Carinetini) (Sanborn 2020a), Carineta dolosa Boulard, 1986 (Carinetini) (Dorval et al. 2011), Herrera castanetorquata Sanborn, 2020a (Carinetini) (Sanborn 2020a), Herrera melanomesochranon Sanborn, 2019a (Carinetini) (Sanborn 2019a), Herrera polygramma Sanborn, 2020a (Carinetini) (Sanborn 2020a), and Herrera sahlbergi (Stål, 1854) n. comb. (Carinetini).Finally, Cicada brazilensis Metcalf, 1963b (Cicadini), Cicada melanaria Germar, 1830 (Cicadini), Cicada effecta Walker, 1858a (Cicadini), and Cicada leucothe Walker, 1852 (Cicadini) were originally described from Brazil but are missing from the list of Nunes et al. (2023). Specimens will need to be located to determine the correct placement of the species currently assigned to Cicada as the genus is primarily distributed in the western Palearctic region (Marshall et al. 2018). It should be noted that Prosotettix sphecoidea Jacobi, 1907 was assigned to Taphurini in Nunes et al. (2023) instead of Selymbriini where it is currently assigned (Sanborn 2021b).
