Três espécies novas de Ladoffa Young (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Cicadellidae)

Abstract

Abstract. Three new species of Ladoffa Young (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Cicadellidae). Three new species ofLado.ffa Young, 1977 are described: L. rubronigra sp. n. (North Brazil and Guyana), L. isabellina sp. n. (North BraziJ), and L. trifasciata sp. n. (Panama). They are similar to the other species ofthe genus in the general aspect, mainly with regards to the coloration. However, they can be distinguished by the aspect of the male genital ia.

A new genus and species of Cicadellini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest

“…Curiously, a similar condition is observed in the genus Ladoffa, which is otherwise externally quite distinct from Parasubrasaca. The crown in Ladoffa has a median full-length longitudinal fovea, the epistomal suture is usually incomplete, the apical margin of the fore wings is slightly concave, and paraphyses are usually present (YOUNG 1977, LOZADA 1993, CAVICHIOLI & CHIAMOLERA 2001, LOZADA & FREYTAG 2010. These four features, especially the crown fovea and the concave fore wing apex, will readily distinguish Ladoffa from Parasubrasaca.…”
