A82F87957F0EFFFCFF3E5D1FFB80F99F.taxon	description	Recorded damage and economic importance in the orchards of Iran: This is the first record of this species in Iran. It was first collected in the north of the country (Mazandaran province, 7 ♂, 1 ♂, and 47 nymphs) in 2010. During 2013, 2015 and 2016 many specimens were collected among large populations on Kiwi fruit and fig in other localities in the north. The large populations of the nymphs and adults along with the damage caused by their direct feeding and anecdotal reports of heavy deposits of “ honey dew ” on leaves, suggest the potential for economic damage but its pest status remains unknown. Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: The species has been recorded on grapevine and fig in Turkey and as an agricultural pest in Ukraine and Georgia (Demir 2009; Gjonov 2011; Gjonov & Shishinova 2014). Recorded distribution in Iran: North, along the shores of Caspian Sea. Conclusion: Given the recent discovery of large populations of the species in the north of Iran and its recorded pest status in adjacent countries, the species may be considered invasive. The economic damage made by the species and the necessity of using control methods need to be investigated urgently.	en	Mozaffarian, Fariba (2018): An Identification key to the species of Auchenorrhyncha of Iranian fauna recorded as pests in orchards and a review on the pest status of the species.

Conclusion: Rajabi (1991) mentioned this species in the list of pests of Rosaceous fruit trees after observing a population of the species on pear in the north of Iran. Therefore, pest status of the species needs further study. Although Rajabi (1991) observed large populations on pear in north, no records of economic damage is known from Iran or other parts of the world so the pest status of this species needs to be evaluated.	en	Mozaffarian, Fariba (2018): An Identification key to the species of Auchenorrhyncha of Iranian fauna recorded as pests in orchards and a review on the pest status of the species.

A82F87957F17FFE5FF3E5B14FD90FC16.taxon	description	Recorded damage and economic importance in the orchards of Iran: A pest in vineyards (Mostaan & Akbarzadeh 1995; Latifian et al. 2004). Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: The species of this genus have been recorded as well known pests on vineyards in the world (Pombo 2001; Viggiani 2002). Recorded distribution in Iran: West, centre and northeast (Mozaffarian & Wilson 2016). Conclusion: A. kermanshah is an endemic species with a rather wide recorded distribution in Iran. It was recorded as a common species and a pest in Iranian vineyards of the country. The economic injury level for the species was determined by Latifian et al. (2005). However, there isn’t any record available to indicate the damage level of the species in the vineyards.	en	Mozaffarian, Fariba (2018): An Identification key to the species of Auchenorrhyncha of Iranian fauna recorded as pests in orchards and a review on the pest status of the species.

Recorded distribution in Iran: South of Central Alborz Mountain (Mozaffarian & Wilson 2016). Conclusion: The species is a Nearctic species and the records may be due to a misidentification (Mozaffarian & Wilson 2016). Frutioidia (Frutioidia) bisignata (Mulstant et Rey, 1855) (Figs 43 and 59 a – c) Recorded damage and economic importance in the orchards of Iran: Mild and sometimes significant damage on Poaceae. The phytoplasma responsible for Almond Witches’ broom disease could not be transmitted by this insect (Esmaili 1984; Rajabi 1991, Taghizadeh & Salehi 2002; Koliayee et al. 2012). Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: A pest on hazelnut in Europe and a potential pest in olive orchards in Turkey (Snare 2006; Bozbuga & Elekcioglu 2008). Recorded distribution in Iran: Northwest and centre (Mozaffarian & Wilson 2016). Conclusion: Modarres Awal (1994) mentioned the name: “ Erythroneura albisignata ” as a synonym with Z. bisignata which is the synonym of the present species. It has been repeated in some agricultural websites consequently as a pest on Poaceae. However, this is not a valid name.

A82F87957F14FFE6FF3E5D99FC9FF994.taxon	description	Recorded damage and economic importance in the orchards of Iran: Considering two species (Cicadatra alhageos and Chloropsalta ochreata) as “ grape cicadas " in Iran, Chloropsalta smaragdula was introduced as the third species of grape cicada by Aghagoli Marzijarani et al. (2013). There isn’t any record on the injury level caused by this species. Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: Not recorded. Recorded distribution in Iran: Generally distributed. Conclusion: Due to the extreme similarity of the habitus of the three cicadas in vineyards of Iran (Cicadatra alhageos, Chloropsalta ochreata and Chloropsalta smaragdula), it is quite necessary to determine the damage level caused by the species after the correct identification.	en	Mozaffarian, Fariba (2018): An Identification key to the species of Auchenorrhyncha of Iranian fauna recorded as pests in orchards and a review on the pest status of the species.

Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: Bozbuga & Elekcioglu (2008) mentioned the species as a potential and not economic pest in olive orchards in Turkey.

Recorded distribution in Iran: North and northwest (Mozaffarian & Sanborn 2010). Conclusion: Schedl (2003) published images from habitus and male genitalia of lectotype of this species which was collected from Iraq. In spite of the record of the species in Iran, there isn’t any Iranian specimen available to examine. However due to the extreme similarity of the habitus of the lectotype in Schedl (2003) with C. alhageos, and the fact that the latter species is a well known pest in Iranian vineyards, it may be useful to reexamine the specimens from north and northwest of Iran.	en	Mozaffarian, Fariba (2018): An Identification key to the species of Auchenorrhyncha of Iranian fauna recorded as pests in orchards and a review on the pest status of the species.
