“…Since 2004, numerous articles have been published improving the taxonomy of the second largest treehopper subfamily, the Smiliinae. Most of the recent taxonomic work has focused on the tribes Amastrini (Evangelista and Sakakibara 2007b), Ceresini (Andrade 2004a, b;2005;2008), Smiliini (Wallace 2011), and Telamonini (Wallace 2011). Only two Smiliinae genera were described during this period, Aurimastris Evangelista and Sakakibara (2007a) Telamonines are known for their large size (8-10 mm) and striking pronotal projections, sometimes assuming a quadrate, sinuate, tonguelike, or thornlike shape (Ball 1931;Wallace 2011).…”

A new treehopper genus from Costa Rica, Mutilifolia, based on M. nishidai, new species, is described and illustrated. Mutilifolia is considered a member of the subfamily Smiliinae, tribe Telamonini based on characteristics of the pronotum, fore- and hind wing venation, and female genitalia. This genus superficially resembles the telamonine genera Antianthe, Archasia, and Hemicardiacus due to the highly elevated, foliaceous, and largely green pronotum, but the male style clasp of Mutilifolia with two recurved teeth differs greatly from the styles of any other presently known telamonine. Further collecting of treehoppers in the mountainous regions of Central America and Mexico, areas often neglected by collectors, may yield additional new Telamonini taxa.

The indigenous Nearctic treehopper fauna includes 2 families, 6 subfamilies, 20 tribes, 68–72 genera, and 276–280 de-scribed species, of which 1 tribe, 16 genera, and 195 species are endemic. This work provides an alphabetical checklist ofthe species (with distributions as documented in the literature) as well as discussions and two tables summarizing the tax-onomic and regional diversity of this rich, distinctive fauna. The tribes Smiliini and Telamonini (Membracidae: Smilii-nae), which include many specialists on oaks (Quercus spp.), are the two most species-rich tribes. Maps of the Nearcticsubregions document the species richness of each state and province, 22 of which have between 60 and 118 reported spe-cies. The Southwest U.S. has the largest number of genera of the subregions, while both the Southwest and the Centraland Eastern U.S. are highly species rich. Arizona stands apart as an area of exceptional endemism with one genus and 25species known only from within its borders. Among families of auchenorrhynchous Hemiptera, Membracidae rank thirdin total numbers of Nearctic species. This study highlights the need for: (1) improved taxonomic understanding, especiallythrough comprehensive generic revisions; (2) further collecting to fill gaps in geographic sampling; and (3) the preserva-tion of identifiable voucher material, with full data (including geo-cordinates and, where known, host plant data) to document all published research.

Two synonyms for Hadrophallus bubalus (Fabricius) (Hemiptera, Membracidae)

Abstract: Two synonyms are considered: Hadrophallus bubalus (Fabricius, 1794) = Ceresa integra Walker, 1858 syn. nov. = Ceresa borealis Fairmaire, 1846 syn. restaur. The species Spissistilus constans (Walker, 1851) sensu Caldwell, 1949 is considered a misidentification of H. bubalus.
