Abstract

ABSTRACT. Descriptions of the females of Gypona gilba DeLong & Martinson, 1972 and of Reticana vittata Azevedo-Filho & Carvalho, 2000 (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Gyponinae). The females of Gypona gilba and Reticana vittata are described and illustrated based on specimens from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

On the female of Gypona reversa DeLong & Martinson, 1972, with emphasis on genital structures (Insecta: Hemiptera: Cicadellidae)

“…Most of the species are only described based on the male, and when the female is known there is only reference to the sternite VII as the genital structures (Coelho et al 2001, Azevedo-Filho and Carvalho 2003). Gypona (G.) reversa DeLong & Martinson, 1972 was described based on male holotype (from Viçosa, Minas Gerais, Brasil) and paratype (from Jalapa, Mexico) (Coelho et al 2001).…”
