Tympanoterpes colombiae Distant 1892: 60 (Colombia) .</p><p>Species included. The genus is represented currently by the following 14 species: A. albimaculosa n. sp., A. albiplica (Walker, 1858), A. alboapicata (Distant, 1905), A. arechavaletae (Berg, 1884), A. bartletti n. sp., A. bilaqueata (Uhler, 1903), A. colombiae (Distant, 1892), A. diupsilon (Walker, 1850), A. egregia (Uhler, 1903), A. maryannae Sanborn, 2016, A. nigrorufa (Walker, 1850), A. nigrovittata Distant, 1905, A. russelli Sanborn, 2016, and A. urens (Walker, 1852) . The six species listed in the genus by Pogue (1996) are not included as they are only described numerically as part of a diversity study and many are probably representatives of other genera since the first specific Ariasa species reported from Peru are listed below (Metcalf 1963; Duffels &amp; van der Laan 1985; Sanborn 2013).</p><p>Excluded species. Cracenpsaltria brasiliorum (Kirkaldy, 1909) rev. stat., n. comb. does not belong to the genus as described below.</p><p>Description. Body size variable (19–36 mm body length). Head wider than mesonotum, eyes protruding beyond anterior pronotum, vertex at area of ocelli as long as or a little shorter than front, postclypeus globose, centrally sulcate, rounded or transverse anteriorly, rostrum generally reaching the hind coxae or hind trochanters, extending to abdominal sternites in the occasional specimen. Pronotum shorter than mesonotum, trapezoidal with anterior margin narrower than lateral margins of pronotal collar, lateral angles of pronotal collar expanded, metanotum extends laterally beyond wing groove, cruciform elevation smoothly arched posteriorly. Metasternum transverse central plate moderately elevated, not angularly produced anteriorly. Fore wings and hind wings generally hyaline, with eight and six apical cells, respectively, radial and radiomedial crossveins generally parallel, obliquely oriented to radius posterior and median veins respectively and without infuscation. Basal cell longer than broad with variable markings. Basal area of fore wing clavus and hind wing costal cell may be infuscated. Fore femora with oblique primary spine, upright secondary spine, and a small tertiary spine, tarsi three-segmented. Male operculum triangular not covering the tympanal cavity completely laterally or posteromedially, nor medially in some species, almost or reaching to sternite II, opercula well separated along midline, meracanthus tapering to a point, reaching to or passing posterior margin of operculum, female operculum and meracantus generally of similar shape to male for each species, opercula smaller extending medially only to lateral base of meracanthus. Abdomen about as long as distance between apex of head and posterior of cruciform elevation. Abdominal segments with sides expanding laterally to tergite 4 where the abdomen begins narrowing posteriorly to the genitalia, epipleurites folded toward dorsal surface producing a channel on the lateral margins of the abdomen, posterior sternites translucent in males of some species. Female sternite VII with sinuate or straight posterior margin and medial notch. Timbal cover incomplete, with rounded anterior apex, concealing only the lateral aspect of the timbal, timbal cover with concave anteromedial margin that can curve toward apex or produce approximate parallel dorsal and ventral margins to anterior of extension above the lateral timbal before reaching the rounded apex, ventral margin is parallel to long body axis, timbals extend below wing bases. Pygofer distal shoulder rounded, dorsal beak absent, pygofer basal lobe indistinct, pygofer upper lobe large and generally well separated from pygofer, paddle-like often twisting towards apex, median uncus lobe extending posteriorly, lateral uncus lobes curve under median uncus lobes forming an arch when viewed from the side and restraining aedeagus, and male aedeagus a simple tubular structure with a membranous region near the terminus . Female abdominal segment 9 with dorsal beak well defined and sinuate posterior margin, ovipositor sheath extends beyond dorsal beak.</p><p>Measurements (MM). Length of body: 19–36; length of fore wing: 27–46; width of fore wing: 7.7–13.1; length of head: 1.7–5.7; width of head including eyes: 7.5–13.6; width of pronotum including suprahumeral plates: 7.6–13.6; width of mesonotum: 6.5–11.3.</p><p>Diagnosis. Within the Fidicinini, Ariasa can be distinguished from the three genera ( Fidicina Amyot &amp; Audinet-Serville, 1843, Fidicinoides Boulard &amp; Martinelli, 1996, and Berglana Boulard &amp; Martinelli, 1996) of the Fidicinina by the presence of three-part tarsi. Hemisciera Amyot &amp; Audinet-Serville, 1843 is simply distinguished from all other Fidicinini by the bright green basal area of the fore wings and bright red on the basal area of the hind wings. The adpressed pronotal margins, non-parallel radial and radiomedial crossveins, relatively small eyes, small anterolaterally extended timbal covers, and the sternite separating the male opercula distinguish the members of Beameria Davis, 1934 . Majeorona Distant, 1905, has a head width wider than the mesonotum, with the prominent eyes stylate and extended anteriorly. The genera Proarna Stål, 1864, Prasinosoma Torres, 1963, Tympanoterpes Stål, 1861, all possess a head that is about as wide as the mesonotum with the eyes barely or not extending beyond the anterior angle of the pronotum, radial crossvein vertically oriented to the radius anterior 2 and radius posterior veins with a radiomedial crossvein that is obliquely oriented, large semicircular male opercula, and triangular or small, curved timbal covers. The single species of Elassoneura Torres, 1964 shares most of the characters in these genera but the head is wider than the mesonotum and there is significant infuscation along the majority of the fore wing venation. The single species of the genus Pompanonia Boulard, 1982 can be distinguished by a head that is wider than the mesonotum, the radial crossvein vertically oriented to the radius anterior 2 and radius posterior veins with a radiomedial crossvein that is obliquely oriented, semicircular male opercula, triangular timbal covers, and the very wide base of the abdomen with conspicuous timbals. Guyalna Boulard &amp; Martinelli, 1996 can be distinguished by the head being as wide or slightly wider than the mesonotum, eyes that only protrude slightly beyond the anterior angles of the pronotum, parallel sides of the abdomen, and the median uncus lobes are bent forming a horse-shoe shape when viewed from the posterior. Dorisiana Metcalf, 1952 can be distinguished by its head being as wide or wider than the mesonotum with the eyes not extending beyond the lateral edges of the pronotum, triangular timbal covers, ventral margin of the timbal cover angled dorsally not parallel to the long body axis, and the median uncus lobes are bent. Pacarina Distant, 1905 can be distinguished by the non-parallel radial and radiomedial crossveins, the vertex at the ocelli being much longer than the front, and the triangular timbal covers that cover the majority of the timbal. Similary, the genus Ollanta Distant, 1905 can be distinguished by the lobate lateral angles of the pronotal collar, the non-parallel radial and radiomedial crossveins, and triangular timbal covers concealing the majority of the timbal. Cracenpsaltria n. gen. lacks the posteriorly extending median uncus lobes of Ariasa instead possessing separate, long hooked lateral uncal lobes, the pygofer distal shoulder is angled in the new genus, lacks the laterally expanding abdominal segments, and the length of the abdomen is greater than the distance between the apex of the head and posterior cruciform elevation.</p><p>Distribution. The genus is found over much of South America including references to Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Surinam, Uruguay, and Venezuela (Metcalf 1963; Sanborn 2011a; 2011b; 2013; 2016a; Sanborn &amp; Heath 2014). It is doubtful that all of the six undetermined species attributed to the genus by Pogue (1996) in Peru are species of Ariasa but confirmed records from Peru are provided here.</p><p>Key to the species of Ariasa</p><p>1 White basal area of hind wings, abdominal tergites unicolorous black...................................

Length of body: male 31.00 (30.0–32.0), female 28.77 (27.1–30.8); length of fore wing: male 40.03 (38.9–40.8), female 39.70 (37.2–43.6); width of fore wing: male 12.30 (11.9–12.8), female 11.89 (11.5–12.8); length of head: male 4.83 (4.8–4.9), female 4.82 (4.6– 5.1); width of head including eyes: male 11.57 (11.2–12.0), female 11.86 (11.1–12.8); width of pronotum including suprahumeral plates: male 11.87 (11.5–12.3), female 11.77 (10.9–12.9); width of mesonotum: male 9.87 (9.7– 10.1), female 9.93 (9.4–10.7).</p><p>Diagnosis. The lateral red abdomen promptly distinguishes A. nigrorufa from the new species. The lateral ochraceous areas of the abdomen, ochraceous pronotal collar and costal margin distinguish A. arechavaletae from the new species. The white basal area of the hind wings and unicolorous dorsal abdominal segments are unique to A. albiplica . The smaller body size (19 mm vs greater than 30 mm in males) simply distinguishes A. diupsilon and A. urens from the new species. The green and brown body, the white pubescent spots lateral to the genitalia, and smaller body size (about 28 mm) simply distinguish A. alboapicata from the new species. The smaller body size (about 28 mm), black basal cell of the fore wing, and primarily black mesothorax distinguish A. nigrovittata from the new species. Both A. egregia and A. maryannae differ from the new species in that they possess a variegated pattern of silvery and black pile on the dorsal abdomen that form an arch and have black in the basal cell of the fore wing. A black arch formed from pile is found on the dorsal abdomen of A. bilaqueata and A. bartletti n. sp. along with black marking in the basal cell of the fore wing. Ariasa russelli also has a black arch formed from pile on the dorsal abdomen along with primarily black abdominal tergites and black in the basal cell all of which distinguish it from the new species. The new species is most similar in general appearance to A. colombiae with which it was confused in the past (Sanborn 2010). However, A. colombiae can be distinguished by its smaller body size (25–28 mm vs greater than 30 mm for males), the pronotal collar is tawny rather than green, lack of obvious white spots on the anterolateral mesonotum, the basal cell of the fore wing has a dark tawny spot, lateral silvery pile on the abdomen rather than the golden pile of the new species, and the uncus is longer and more robust in A. colombiae than in the new species.</p><p>Distribution. The species is known only from the type series collected in northern Colombia.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039D8245D41D7834FF62FF6D8BA0FEA3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

A female was chosen as the holotype based on the apparent preference for females to be attracted to light traps as has been seen in some other cicadas (Young &amp; Sanborn 2015) and thus will be the most likely sex to need determination.</p><p>Etymology. The species is named for Charles Bartlett who collected the type series and has provided numerous specimens to the author over the years.</p><p>Description. Ground color castaneous marked with black and tawny. One of the paratype female specimens is tinged with green and the male paratype is darker with more expansive black markings. These two specimens appear to have been captured with a net rather than in the light traps so there is no discoloration due to the preservative fluid and are covered with more dense pile.</p><p>Head. Head wider than mesonotum, longitudinal black mark on either side of medial epicranial suture extending from posterior of head, widening to enclose the lateral ocellus, and extending medially to the frontoclypeal suture, mark angles anterolaterally to anterior vertex lateral to supra-antennal plate, continuing on ventral head laterally to eye where the mark splits and encircles the eye. Vertex lighter lateral to lateral ocelli and on anterior margin. Supra-antennal plate tawny with black spot on anteromedial margin. Covered with short silvery pile dorsally, longer silvery pile posterior to eye. Ocelli rosaceous, eyes castaneous. Ventral head ground color with transverse black mark between antenna and eye.

Medial margin extending to medial meracanthus not covering tympanal cavity medially. Meracathus pointed, tawny with a black spot on base not reaching beyond opening of tympanal cavity and covered with thick white pubescence.</p><p>Abdomen. Abdomen castaneous with dark transverse mark on anterolateral tergite 2 and dorsolateral tergite 3, covered with long silver and black pile, especially dense laterally. Pile more dense in male and female partypes captured with net. Black pile more dense on anterolateral tergites 2–4, medial tergites 3, 7 and 8, and dorsolateral tergite 4–8 forming a black arch on the dorsal surface. Paratype male tergites with transverse black and castaneous anterior. Female abdominal segment 9 with castaneous dorsolateral surfaces and stigma, tawny ventrally and posteriorly, with dense, long, golden pile.

Anal styles black, anal tube tawny. Median uncus lobes black with tawny midline, flattend laterally with rounded apex and slightly upturned at posterior terminus, lateral uncus lobe black, tawny laterally, ventral side with tawny triangular extension, basal lateral uncus lobes rounded meeting medially, long golden pile radiating dorsally and laterally. Aedeagus tubular, dark castaneous.</p><p>Measurements (MM). N = 1 male or 5 females, mean (range). Length of body: male 34.6, female 33.60 (32.7– 35.0); length of fore wing: male 46.9, female 47.40 (45.9–48.5); width of fore wing: male 13.3, female 13.30 (13.0–13.6); length of head: male 5.6, female 5.86 (5.5–6.2); width of head including eyes: male 13.1, female 13.84 (13.4–14.1); width of pronotum including suprahumeral plates: male 13.1, female 13.70 (13.1–14.0); width of mesonotum: male 11.3, female 11.80 (11.4–12.4).</p><p>Diagnosis. The lateral red abdomen promptly distinguishes A. nigrorufa from the new species. Similarly, the lateral ochraceous areas of the abdomen, ochraceous pronotal collar and costal margin distinguish A. arechavaletae from the new species. The white basal area of the hind wings and unicolorous dorsal abdominal segments are unique to A. albiplica . The smaller body size (19 mm vs greater than 32.5 mm) simply distinguishes A. diupsilon and A. urens from the new species. The green and brown body, the white pubescent spots lateral to the genitalia, and smaller body size (about 28 mm) simply distinguish A. alboapicata from the new species. The smaller body size (about 28 mm), black basal cell of the fore wing, and primarily black mesothorax distinguish A. nigrovittata from the new species. The new species can be distinguished from both A. colombiae and A. albimaculosa n. sp. by the more expansive black markings on the mesothorax, the black markings on the adominal tergites crossing the midline and not forming an arch on the dorsal surface, and the basal cell for the fore wing is not black in these species. The transverse band on the head is complete between the epicranial suture and eye, the basal cell of the forewing is black in the distal region only, the pronotal collar is marked with green and a rounded uncal extension is folded under the uncus in A. egregia . The abdominal tergites are mostly black rather than being mainly tawny or castaneous, the pronotal collar is marked with green rather than being castaneous, the basal cell of the fore wing is marked with green proximally rather than being completely black, and the uncus terminus is flattened and bulbous in A. maryannae rather than being rounded as in the new species. The abdominal tergites are mostly black, including completely black tergites 1 and 2, rather than being mainly tawny or castaneous, abdominal sternites are heavily marked with black rather than being tawny, the basal cell of the fore wing is marked with tawny proximally rather than being completely black, and the uncus terminus is upturned at the terminus in A. russelli rather than being straight as in the new species. The most similar species in general appearance to the new species is A. bilaqueata . The new species has more dense pile, particularly on the lateral mesonotum and on the abdomen, the triangular extension in the middle of the ventral uncus is about one fifth the length of the uncus and upright seen as a triangle in lateral view, and female abdominal segment 9 dorsal surface is straight with a slightly upturned dorsal beak while the triangular extension in the middle of the ventral uncus is about one third the length of the uncus and folded mediad so it is not seen in a lateral view and female abdominal segment 9 is smoothly arched dorsally in A. bilaqueata .</p><p>Distribution. The species is known only from the type series collected in Peru.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039D8245D4187838FF62F9568B01FD72	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Cicada marginata Olivier 1790: 755 (Surinam) .</p><p>Etymology. The genus name is a combination of cracens (L. slender, graceful) and psaltria (L. musician) in reference to the slender appearance of the genus in comparison to other members of the Fidicinini . The genus is feminine.</p><p>Species included. The genus is represented currently only by the type species C. brasiliorum (Kirkaldy, 1909) rev. stat., n. comb.</p><p>Description. Medium sized species (body length 26–35 mm). Head wider than mesonotum, eyes protruding beyond anterior pronotum, vertex at area of ocelli about the same length as front, postclypeus globose, centrally sulcate, rounded anteriorly, rostrum reaching the hind trochanters. Pronotum shorter than mesonotum, trapezoidal with anterior margin narrower than lateral margins of pronotal collar, lateral angles of pronotal collar expanded, lateral part of pronotal collar smoothly curved, metanotum extends laterally beyond wing groove, cruciform elevation smoothly arched posteriorly. Fore wings and hind wings hyaline, with eight and six apical cells, respectively, radial and radiomedial crossveins almost parallel, obliquely oriented to radius posterior and median veins respectively and without infuscation. Basal cell longer than broad, infuscated in anterior half. Basal area of hind wing costal cell infuscated. Fore femora with oblique primary spine that may be adpressed against femur, upright secondary spine, and very small tertiary spine, tarsi three-segmented. Male operculum triangular not covering the tympanal cavity completely posterolaterally, reaching to sternite II, opercula well separated along midline, meracanthus tapering to a point, almost reaching posterior margin of operculum. Female operculum and meracantus of similar shape to male, opercula smaller extending medially only to lateral base of meracanthus which extends beyond posterior margin of operculum. Abdomen longer than the distance between apex of head and posterior of cruciform elevation. Abdominal segments with parallel sides to tergite 4 where the abdomen begins narrowing posteriorly to the genitalia, epipleurites folded toward dorsal surface producing a channel on the lateral margins of the abdomen. Female sternite VII with sinuate posterior margin and medial notch. Timbal cover incomplete, with rounded anterior apex, concealing only the lateral aspect of the timbal, timbal cover with concave anteromedial margin smoothly curving towards rounded apex above lateral timbal, ventral margin slightly curved ventrad, timbals extend below wing bases. Pygofer distal shoulder angled, dorsal beak absent, pygofer basal lobe indistinct, pygofer upper lobe large, pointed, adpressed to pygofer, median uncus lobe indistinct, lateral uncus lobes meeting along midline posterior to median uncus and restraining aedeagus, elongated and recurved, widening in distal third before angling to a pointed terminus, aedeagus tubular. Female abdominal segment 9 with dorsal beak well defined and sinuate posterior margin, ovipositor sheath barely extends beyond dorsal beak.</p><p>Measurements (MM). Length of body: 24.5–34; length of fore wing: 32–42; width of fore wing: 10–13; length of head: 3.7–5; width of head including eyes: 9.5–11; width of pronotum including suprahumeral plates: 10–17; width of mesonotum: 8–10.</p><p>Diagnosis. The only species in this genus was classified last within the Ariasa but it has significantly different genitalia and a thinner appearance than the species of Ariasa . The contrasting coloration pattern of the type species is also different from Ariasa species. This becomes the 14 th genus in the subtribe Guyalnina.</p><p>Within the Fidicinini, Cracenpsaltria n. gen. can be distinguished from Fidicina Amyot &amp; Audinet-Serville, 1843, Fidicinoides Boulard &amp; Martinelli, 1996, and Berglana Boulard &amp; Martinelli, 1996 (the Fidicinina) by the presence of three-part tarsi. The bright green basal area of the fore wings and bright red on the basal area of the hind wings of Hemisciera Amyot &amp; Audinet-Serville, 1843 simply distinguish it from all other Fidicinini . Beameria Davis, 1934 can be distinguished by its adpressed pronotal margins, non-parallel radial and radiomedial crossveins, relatively small eyes, small anterolaterally extended timbal covers, and the sternite separating the male opercula. Majeorona Distant, 1905 differs from the new genus by its head width being wider than the mesonotum, with the prominent eyes stylate and extended anteriorly. The genera Proarna Stål, 1864, Prasinosoma Torres, 1963, Tympanoterpes Stål, 1861, can be distinguished by their head that is about as wide as the mesonotum with the eyes barely or not extending beyond the anterior angle of the pronotum, radial crossvein vertically oriented to the radius anterior 2 and radius posterior veins with a radiomedial crossvein that is obliquely oriented, large semicircular male opercula, and triangular or small, curved timbal covers. The single species of Elassoneura Torres, 1964 shares most of the characters in the three previous genera but the head is wider than the mesonotum and there is significant infuscation along the majority of the fore wing venation. The single species of the genus Pompanonia Boulard, 1982 can be distinguished by possessing a head that is wider than the mesonotum, the radial crossvein vertically oriented to the radius anterior 2 and radius posterior veins with a radiomedial crossvein that is obliquely oriented, semicircular male opercula, triangular timbal covers, and the very wide base of the abdomen with conspicuous timbals. Members of Guyalna Boulard &amp; Martinelli, 1996 can be distinguished from the new genus by a head being as wide or slightly wider than the mesonotum, eyes that only protrude slightly beyond the anterior angles of the pronotum, parallel sides of the abdomen, and the median uncus lobes are bent forming a horse-shoe shape when viewed from the posterior. Species of Dorisiana Metcalf, 1952 can be distinguished by a head being as wide or wider than the mesonotum with the eyes not extending beyond the lateral edges of the pronotum, triangular timbal covers, ventral margin of the timbal cover angled dorsally not parallel to the long body axis, and the median uncus lobes are bent. Species of Pacarina Distant, 1905 can be distinguished by the nonparallel radial and radiomedial crossveins, the vertex at the ocelli being much longer than the front, and the triangular timbal covers that cover the majority of the timbal. Similary, the members of the genus Ollanta Distant, 1905 can be distinguished by the lobate lateral angles of the pronotal collar, the non-parallel radial and radiomedial crossveins, and triangular timbal covers that conceal the majority of the timbal. The new genus shares many characteristics with Ariasa but the genitalia are significantly different lacking the posteriorly extending median uncus lobes and possessing separate, long recurved lateral uncus lobes, the pygofer distal shoulder is angled not curved, the abdominal segments do not expand laterally, and the length of the abdomen is greater than the distance between the apex of the head and posterior cruciform elevation.</p><p>Distribution. Specimens of the type species have been reported from Brazil, Surinam, South America (Metcalf 1963; Sanborn 2013) and French Guiana (Sanborn 2011a). The genus is also recorded for the first time below from Bolivia and Peru.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/039D8245D413783DFF62FD558EA5FA59	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Surinam.</p><p>Remarks. Boulard (2001) describes in detail the identity, history and synonymy of the species and came to the conclusion that Cicada marginata Olivier, 1790 was a valid species and was assigned to Ariasa . However, after reviewing Sulzer (1761) it is clear that Kirkaldy (1909) was correct in his interpretation of the validity of C. marginata Olivier because it does not matter that Latreille changed the criteria of the genus Cicada L. when Kirkaldy provided the nomen novum as Boulard (2001) suggested. Although Sulzer (1761) used a colloquial name in the text (p. 95 of the first section of the book) to describe his C. marginata, the name marginata is clearly identified as being associated with Cicada L. from Systema Naturae in the second section of the book containing the figure legends (p. 25) and both sections refer to the same figure (Fig. 66, Tab. X) so that the description and the name correspond to the same species. The name C. marginata Sulzer, 1761 meets the criteria of publication, the criteria of availability, the use of the Latin alphabet (in a font distinct from the remaining text and matching the font of the genus Cicada), the name is used as a binomen, there is a description of the species, and the name was valid when proposed meaning the name is available under the Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999). Therefore, C. marginata Sulzer has priority over C. marginata Olivier and Kirkaldy was correct in assigning a nomen novum for Olivier’s species as the name Cicada marginata was preoccupied when proposed by Olivier. As a result, Cracenpsaltria brasiliorum (Kirkaldy, 1909) rev. stat., n. comb. is the valid name for the taxon with the erection of the new genus here.</p><p>Distribution. Specimens have been reported from previously from Brazil, Surinam, South America (Metcalf 1963; Sanborn 2013), and French Guiana (Sanborn 2011a).
