Zootaxa 3156 (1): 1-42, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3156.1.1, URL: https://biotaxa.org/Zootaxa/article/view/zootaxa.3156.1.1
C1466508E01C7A29A9B4AF37FB87760D.taxon	description	Male genitalia (Figs 14 – 17). Ventral margin of pygofer with a process oriented posteriorly. Pygofer height: 1.3 mm. Subgenital plates elongated and curved dorsally on apical third, apex pointed. Parameres bearing interiorly in posterior area a spine hooked shaped, dorsal margin presenting a clear dorsal extension. Aedeagus developed anteriorly in two-pointed protrusions, the lower one being larger. Apex of posterior dorsal extension of aedeagus cogged and reaching dorsal margin of pygofer, anterior dorsal extension represents 1 / 3 length of posterior extension. Note. The observation of male genitalia is the only way to distinguish for sure this species from A. kraussi. According to Synave (1957) A. bergevini and A. kraussi differ by relative dimensions from the head and the pronotum, A. bergevini being larger proportionally. Some specimens studied in this work are intermediate for those proportions making the identification difficult. Synonymy. Lallemand (1949) cited for the first and unique time A. tripunctata var. completa in his species table for Amberana. He listed enough characters to distinguish the female holotype of this variety from the female holotype of the species. The shape of the patches on the tegmina (Figs 18, 19), the coloration of these patches and the size and shape of the dimple on the postclypeus were used. For this revision, more material was available for study than it was for Lallemand. The observation of the patches patterns, colour and dimple shows variability within these characters, making it impossible to identify the subspecies. Until now, the presence of 3 colour patches on the tegmina allowed to differentiate A. tripunctata from A. bergevini which has only 2 large patches (Fig. 20). Having had access to more specimens the observation of male genitalia was possible and no difference between the supposed species was visible. The original description of both species was published in the same article in 1920. The morph of A. bergevini holotype is the most common. As first reviser, it was decided to keep this name according to the article 24.2. of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. This is why A. tripunctata is synonymised with A. bergevini. Coloration. A gradient in the pattern of coloration is observed on the tegmina, from two to three patches, from yellow-whitish to orange. Sometimes, the two anterior patches seem to join, giving only one big macula in which a small half moon black patch, along the external margin, can be seen or not. The most posterior patch is always shaped as a stripe (transverse to the tegmina). It can differ in width and can either touch the margins at its apex or not. This last patch can help recognise this species from A. attiei where the described patch is circular and never touches the margins.	en	Soulier-Perkins, Adeline, Kunz, Gernot (2012): Revision of the malagassy endemic genus Amberana Distant (Hemiptera, Cercopidae) with description of one new genus.

C1466508E0177A2FA9B4AF6CFC147599.taxon	description	Male genitalia (Fig. 50). Pygofer with dorsal margin very irregular, developed in a dome before anal tube. Pygofer height: 2.2 mm. Subgenital plates stout, flattened dorsally on the last quarter of its length. Aedeagus with apex reaching the level of anal tube, only one protrusion on anterior margin but well developed and hook shaped. Two dorsal extensions not long and anterior one slightly club-shaped on apex. Note. The black pattern on the tegmina can easily separate A. fissurata from A. uncinita Jacobi, 1917 (Figs 51, 122). Lectotype designation. Two syntypes borrowed from the Jacobi collection (SMTD) were examined in this study. In the original description, Jacobi wrote: Mus. Dresden [Typen] und Berlin: 33, 1 Ƥ. This leads us to believe that the two specimens from Dresden are the only syntypes. Both are males. We designate the male in the best condition here as lectotype. Subsequently the second specimen becomes a paralectotype.	en	Soulier-Perkins, Adeline, Kunz, Gernot (2012): Revision of the malagassy endemic genus Amberana Distant (Hemiptera, Cercopidae) with description of one new genus.

C1466508E0037A3DA9B4AF58FED77380.taxon	description	Male genitalia (Figs 89 – 90). Pygofer with posterior margin rounded on upper 2 / 3 part, clear protrusion stopping this curve basally, a small extension on dorsal margin anteriorly to anal tube. Pygofer height: 1.9 mm. Subgenital plates gently curved, reducing slowly in diameter to apex that is still thick. Aedeagus developed anteriorly in twopointed protrusions, the lower being bigger than the one above. Dorsal extensions long, posterior dorsal protrusion reaching beyond dorsal pygofer margin, apex bifid, anterior dorsal protrusion shorter and club shaped at apex. Lectotype designation. In the original description, Lallemand wrote: “ Types: ma collection et Muséum de Paris ”, which leads to believe that Lallemand described this species from at least two specimens (syntypes), one (or several) in his collection (MRAC) and the other (s) in the MNHN. The only specimen from the MRAC is labelled as following: R. det. 6663 E; Literna noualhieri Lall. [hand written] det. V. Lallemand 192?; 3; type; coll. Mus. Congo, coll. V. Lallemand, Baie d’Antongil, Madagascar; holotypus. We believe that the label “ holotypus ” was pinned with the specimen posteriorly to the original description especially when an older label “ type ” was also pinned to the specimen. In 1949, Lallemand transferred Literna noualhieri to Amberana. This new combination is the only nomenclatural act written since the description of the species. Nothing in the literature justifies that the specimen from MRAC was recognised as holotype. In the MNHN collection, two specimens were found with the following labels: Muséum Paris, Madagascar, Baie d’Antongil, A. Mocquerys, coll. Noualhier 1898. The first specimen also bears a hand written label “ Dauphina noualhieri Lallem. Types ” by Lallemand. The locality, the epithet name of the species and the mention “ types ”, on the label, correspond to the original description, along with the fact that the specimens belong to the Noualhier’s collection to whom the species is dedicated. But, the genus name is incorrect and no Dauphina noualhieri has ever been described by Lallemand. We believe that Lallemand meant to write Literna and not Dauphina on his label. Lallemand (1920) described D. brunnea followed by L. noualhieri. When he wrote the label, for the specimens corresponding to the description of L. noualhieri, he probably merged the two species names of his article: D. brunnea and L. noualhieri. It is not the first time that spelling mistakes and / or the wrong genus name on Lallemand’s labels are observed, this error being linked to the vicinity of two names in the literature. According to these observations, we think that the nomenclatural status of these syntype specimens should be clarified. Here, we designate the specimen from the MRAC as lectotype and subsequently the two specimens cited above from the MNHN become paralectotypes.	en	Soulier-Perkins, Adeline, Kunz, Gernot (2012): Revision of the malagassy endemic genus Amberana Distant (Hemiptera, Cercopidae) with description of one new genus.

However it is not excluded that Melichar deposited some duplicate specimens in some other European museums. For this reason, this specimen was labelled as syntype by Pavel Lauterer.

C1466508E03A7A05A9B4AE5AFA5B7394.taxon	discussion	Amberana is endemic to Madagascar and posses some morphological characters that allow differentiating it from Literna classically considered to be close. However the dimple described by Lallemand in 1949 can be observed on all the species except for A. perinatana, A. rubescens and A. sandrangatensis described by Synave in 1957. When looking at the shape of the male genitalia, we have to notice as well that the general shape of the aedeagus and the apex of the parameres of these three species are similar between them but different from all the other species of Amberana. In side view, these three species are more dorsoventrally flattened than the species of Amberana.	en	Soulier-Perkins, Adeline, Kunz, Gernot (2012): Revision of the malagassy endemic genus Amberana Distant (Hemiptera, Cercopidae) with description of one new genus.

From above anterior margin of head regularly curved and postclypeus not protruded beyond it, bearing a large longitudinal furrow. Ocelli closer to each other than to eyes. Pronotum with sinuate posterior margin, wider than long and flattened dorsoventrally in comparison to Amberana. Dimple on postclypeus, just below frontal margin absent. Meta tibia bearing one lateral spine. This genus can be distinguished from all other genera by the general shape of the male genitalia. Its aedeagus is generally shaped as a circumvented tube and the anterior margin bears a thumb shaped extension.	en	Soulier-Perkins, Adeline, Kunz, Gernot (2012): Revision of the malagassy endemic genus Amberana Distant (Hemiptera, Cercopidae) with description of one new genus.
