Paratypes. 1 male, same location as holotype, genitalia dissection G103 (UCONN); 1 male, specimen code 12. PH. MN.HWM.01, PHILIPPINES, Mindanao, W side Mt. Hamiguitan, Ca. 1.5 h up trail from Tumalite, 282 m, 06°43.95 ʹ N, 126°08.13 ʹ E, 26 April 2012, K.B. R. Hill, D.C. Marshall and A.B. Mohagan (UCONN). Etymology The specific name is a Latin feminine adjective meaning ̍dark̾, in reference to the darkcoloured body and the base of the fore wings of this species. Measurements of types (2 males, holotype (larger) and paratype from Mt. Hamiguitan) Length of body: 12.5 (11.2–13.7). Length of head and thorax together: 6.3 (5.4–7.1). Length of abdomen: 6.2 (5.8–6.6). Width of head including compound eyes: 3.2 (3.1–3.2). Width of pronotum: 4.6 (4.1–5.0). Width of mesonotum: 4.0 (3.6–4.4). Width of abdominal tergite 3: 5.3 (4.6–5.9). Length of fore wing: 15.4 (14.0–16.8). Width of fore wing: 5.2 (4.8–5.5). Wing span: 33.4 (30.8–36.0). Description of male Head black to fuscous; narrow, much narrower than mesonotum. Distance between lateral ocelli and compound eyes slightly shorter than distance between lateral ocelli. Antenna mostly dull ochraceous but with black pedicel and scape. Postclypeus greatly protruding anteriad. Rostrum with small dull ochraceous patch proximally, with apex slightly passing beyond posterior margin of mid coxae. Thorax including cruciform elevation black to fuscous. Anterolateral pronotal collar not dentate. Fore-, mid- and hind coxae each with light green distal membrane. Wings: Fore wing partly hyaline with venation ochraceous except for basal half of costal vein pinkish brown and with broad dark brown patch on basal half of fore wing. Basal cell tinged with pinkish brown. Basal membrane pinkish brown. Hind wing hyaline. Hind wing costal cell, radial cell and medial cell with small pinkish brown patch basally. Vannus with pinkish brown patch basally on about basal one-fourth. Hind wing jugum pinkish brown. Operculum black to fuscous; hook- or meniscus-shaped, with length of 2.5–3 times the width, with apex heading towards centre of body; not reaching posterior margin of abdominal sternite II. Opercula nearly touching each other medially. Abdomen wide and short, about as long as head and thorax together; mostly black with small reddish brown patches, especially on median and sublateral parts. Tergite 3 much wider than pronotum. Timbal cover black but tinged with reddish brown, very small, triangular with anterior angle rounded, wider than long. Timbal mostly exposed. Abdominal sternites dark brown to reddish brown with black caudal margin on each of sternites II–VII. Sternite VIII and epipleurite VIII nearly red. Genitalia. Pygofer circular in ventral view. Dorsal beak narrow and long. Uncus short with widely concave apex. Median clasper process extending posteriad in ventral view, but curved inward in lateral view. Lateral clasper lobe short. Aedeagus with spine-like processes apically. Distal shoulder with short triangular tooth in lateral view. Upper lobe uncurved, with rounded apex in lateral view. Basal lobe indistinct. Remarks This species resembles Mogannia conica (Germar, 1830) (TL: Java) because its fore wing also has a broad dark-coloured patch halfway from the base, but M. conica has the reddish postclypeus (vs black in the new species),narrower patch on the fore wing, smoothly rounded distal shoulder of the male pygofer (vs with a short triangular tooth in the new species), and a lobe-like process under the lateral clasper lobe (vs absent in the new species). Also similar is Mogannia funettae Boulard, 2008 from northern Thailand, but like M. conica, M. funettae has the fore wing basal cell clear or tinged with bright colour rather than infuscated with dark brown to match the remainder of the basal fore wing (see Boulard 2013). As discussed below, the song of Mogannia tenebrosa Lee and Marshall sp. nov. also suggests a relationship to M. funettae. This species is similar also to Mogannia formosana Matsumura,1907 because of the blackish body colour and the brownish patch on the fore wing, but M. formosana has a much more brightly coloured patch on the fore wing and light colouration on the ventral side of the body. Two other Mogannia previously recorded from the Philippines are Mogannia indigotea Distant, 1917 (TL: Tonkin) and Mogannia viridis (Signoret, 1847) (TL: Java) although we suspect that they are not distributed in the Philippines. Both differ from M. tenebrosa in the main body colour (M. indigotea is dark indigo blue, and M. viridis green to ochraceous). While the dark body colour of M. indigotea could be confused in poorly preserved specimens, the fore wing colour pattern is different, with some sections of the fore wing hyaline or tinted in indigotea but fully infuscated in tenebrosa (see Chen et al. 2012). Song (Figure 16) The song of the holotype male was recorded and is illustrated here. The sound is a highpitched staccato buzz that continues indefinitely (at least 62s in our recording). Syllables containing approximately six pulses each are closely grouped or coalesced into echemes comprising four syllables, with the beginning and ending pulses of each syllable sometimes overlapping. The syllables are produced at about 200/s, and the echemes at about 20/s. There is minor amplitude modulation that helps to define the syllables,but otherwise sound intensity and frequency are not regularly modulated.The frequency spectrum is broad,reaching from at least 8 kHz to above 20 kHz, but most energy is concentrated within the range 8–12 kHz. The dominant frequency is about 10 kHz.Males were observed to sing while perching on the upper sides of leaves, as noted by Boulard (2013) for other Mogannia in Thailand. No songs have been published previously for the genus Mogannia in the Philippines. The song of M. funettae, as shown in Boulard (2013), is very similar to that of M. tenebrosa, differing mainly in having a somewhat faster echeme repetition rate of about 28/s and inter-echeme intervals that are about the same duration as the echemes themselves., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Genus Neopurana Lee and Marshall gen. nov. Type species Neopurana bouptera Lee and Marshall sp. nov., monotypic. Etymology The generic name is feminine, a combination of the Greek prefix neo- meaning ̍new̾ and the name of an allied genus, Purana. Description Body small-sized (24.4 mm long in holotype of the type species). Head including compound eyes (6.8 mm wide in holotype) about as wide as mesonotum (6.7 mm wide in holotype). Postclypeus moderately swollen. Rostrum slightly passing beyond hind coxae. Anterolateral pronotal collar not dentate. Wings hyaline. Fore wing with infuscations on crossveins and along its hind submargin. Fore wing with very long apical cells, with ulnar cell 2 about as long as apical cell 4. Male operculum small, about as long as wide, extending to anterior margin of abdominal sternite III. Opercula widely separated from each other. Male abdomen long obconical, distinctly longer than head and thorax together. Male abdominal tergite 3 wider than mesonotum. Timbal cover about as long as wide, concealing timbal in dorsal view. Male abdominal sternite III with tubercle-like projection on each posterolateral surface, long protruding posteriorly. Male pygofer oval in ventral view. Uncus simple, short, not bifurcate. Distal shoulder not pointed. Basal lobe of pygofer absent. Remarks Neopurana Lee and Marshall gen. nov. resembles various species and species groups of the genus Purana Distant, 1905 in the following characters, and especially in the similarlooking marks and patterns on the mesonotum: body small-sized; wings hyaline; male operculum small; and male abdominal sternite III with tubercle-like projection on each lateral surface. However, this genus can be distinguished from Purana by the following characteristics: anterolateral pronotal collar not dentate; fore wing with very long apical cells; male abdominal sternite IV without tubercle-like projections; and aedeagus thick apically. This genus can be distinguished from all other genera of Puranina Lee, 2013 by the fore wing with very long apical cells and the aedeagus very thick apically (as illustrated in Figure 11 (C))., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Subtribe EUTERPNOSIINA Lee, 2013 Euterpnosiina Lee, 2013 in Lee and Emery, 2013: 527–528. Remarks The position of the new genus described immediately below is unique and independent from any other known species of Leptopsaltriini in the phylogenetic tree constructed by Hill et al. (2021). Therefore, this genus could form a separate new subtribe within Leptopsaltriini. This genus has very long fore wing apical cells, which is one of its peculiar characteristics within Leptopsaltriini, and has tubercle-like projections only on the sternite III, which is seen only in some members of Tanna Distant, 1905 and Vietanna Lee and Pham, 2021. This genus is different from the genera of Puranina Lee, 2013 because of the anterolateral pronotal collar which is not dentate, the male abdominal sternite IV which does not have tubercle-like projections, and the aedeagus which is thick apically. This genus is tentatively placed in Euterpnosiina because the type specimen of the genus was largely grouped with genera of Euterpnosiina in the phylogenetic tree constructed by Hill et al. (2021) in spite of many morphological differences, including the following: timbal cover well developed (vs minute in Euterpnosiina); male abdominal sternite III with tubercle-like projections (vs mostly without them in Euterpnosiina); aedeagus thick (vs thin in Euterpnosiina); and basal lobe of pygofer absent (vs present in Euterpnosiina). Further taxonomic study is required to find its proper subtribe placement.

Tribe LEPTOPSALTRIINI Moulton, 1923 Remarks Hill et al. (2021) noted molecular phylogenetic evidence of confusion between the tribes Gaeanini Distant, 1905 and Leptopsaltriini Moulton, 1923 and suggested that Gaeanini could perhaps be redefined as a subtribe within Leptopsaltriini. However, in such a case tribe Gaeanini would take priority since it is the older family group. In this paper, we refrain from synonymising Leptopsaltriini with Gaeanini, awaiting a further comprehensive morphological review., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Remarks Bregman (1985, p. 48) stated that ̍ Two female specimens from Mindanao, Philippines showed great resemblance to the male types of C . minor. It is not quite certain whether these females indeed belong to C . minor ̾. Chremistica minor has not been found in Mindanao or any other part of the Philippines by the present authors or by any other authors after Bregman (1985). We suspect that C . minor (TL: Kalimantan, Indonesia) is not distributed in Mindanao. As the body colouration of C . minor somewhat resembles that of Chremistica kyoungheeae, it is possible that the two Mindanao females noted by Bregman (1985) are specimens of C. kyoungheeae., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Etymology The specific name is a Latin adjective meaning ̍slender̾, ̍thin̾, ̍feeble̾ or ̍small̾, in reference to the small and slender body of this species. Measurements of holotype (1 male) Length of body: 14.2. Length of head and thorax together: 5.5. Length of abdomen:8.7. Width of head including compound eyes: 3.6. Width of pronotum: 4.2. Width of mesonotum: 3.5. Width of abdominal tergite 3: 3.9. Length of fore wing: 16.8. Width of fore wing: 6.3. Wing span: 37.0. Description of male Body tiny and slender. Head: Vertex ochraceous with the following fuscous marks: inverted triangular mark surrounding median ocellus; a pair of rather indistinct marks surrounding lateral ocelli; a pair of spots on inner corners of supra-antennal plates; and a pair of spots on posterolateral corner of vertex (touching compound eyes). Distance between lateral ocelli and compound eyes about as long as distance between lateral ocelli. Antennae black except for reddish-brown scape and base of pedicel. Postclypeus not swollen anteriad and rather flat ventrally; reddish brown to ochraceous with V-shaped black median mark, of which posterior part merged into a large patch. Anteclypeus reddish ochraceous with median fuscous spot and fuscous posterior margin. Rostrum brown with black apex; with apex extending slightly beyond posterior margin of mid trochanter. Lorum ochraceous with large fuscous spot posteriorly. Gena ochraceous without distinct marks. Thorax Pronotum ochraceous. Inner area of pronotum with the following fuscous marks: tiny spot on posteromedian margin of inner area;a pair of short longitudinal fasciae between about middle of paramedian fissures and posterior ends of lateral fissures; a pair of fasciae along lateral fissures; irregular indistinct marks between paramedian fissures and lateral fissures; and a pair of curved fasciae along lateral margins of inner area. Pronotal collar very narrow; without marks. Anterolateral pronotal collar not dentate. Mesonotum dull ochraceous with a pair of fuscous patches on entire submedian sigilla and a pair of longitudinal larger patches on almost entire lateral sigilla. Cruciform elevation light ochraceous or yellow without distinct marks. Thoracic sternites greenish light ochraceous. Legs ochraceous to reddish brown with some fuscous spots. Fore femur with primary, secondary and subapical spines. Wings hyaline without infuscation; with extremely narrow marginal areas. Fore wing venation reddish brown basally but fuscous distally. Basal membrane yellowish grey. Hind wing with five or six apical cells (possibly with six apical cells normally, considering other Philipsalta species have six apical cells). Operculum small, semicircular, not reaching posterior margin of sternite II; greenish light ochraceous. Opercula separated from each other. Abdomen long triangular in dorsal view, much longer than head and thorax together, with ridge formed on tergites 4–7 dorsomedially; slightly greenish light ochraceous with grey-tinged lateral margins. Tergite 1 very short, less than one-fourth as long as tergite 2 in median length. Tergites 3–8 black to fuscous on about anterior half and brown to ochraceous on about posterior half dorsomedially; upper lateral surfaces slightly translucent. A pair of fuscous globose bumps present on lateral margins of tergite 2. Timbal cover absent. Timbals not extending below wing bases ventrally. Abdominal sternites translucent, ochraceous indistinctly with pinkish caudal margin on each of sternites 3–6. Genitalia Pygofer ovate with triangular dorsal beak in ventral view. Upper lobe moderately pointed. Dorsal beak triangular. Median lobe of uncus moderately protruding. A pair of clasper-like processes protruding straight downward. Remarks This new species can be distinguished from Philipsalta nigrina by body colouration and by the comparative size and shape of each part of the body and wings as follows: body colouration not monotonous(vs entirely black in P.nigrina);head comparatively short,about half as long as pronotum (vs about two-thirds as long as pronotum in P. nigrina); fore wing radial cell comparatively narrow, narrower than ulnar cell 3 (vs spacious, broader than ulnar cell 3 in P. nigrina); and male abdomen much longer than head and thorax together (vs slightly longer in P. nigrina). Song (Figure 18) About 190 s of song was recorded from this species at the type locality, including that of the paratype male, which is illustrated here. Males produce song phrases of about 0.3– 0.85 s duration at a regular pace of about 0.5 phrases/s. Each phrase begins with about 8–20 doublet pulses produced at 40 doublets/s, with the first pulse of each doublet louder. The doublets increase in intensity towards the end of this long syllable. After a gap equivalent to the time needed for one additional doublet, the phrase concludes with a syllable of 6– 13 doublets produced at a faster rate (60/s) and with a greater intensity. In our recording, it is difficult to discern the quieter pulse of each doublet in the second syllable. There is a tendency, across phrases, for pulse doublets to drop out occasionally within both syllables. The recording was taken with the recordist close to the cicada and attempting to attract it with finger-snaps, so disturbance could have occurred. The frequency spectrum is broad, reaching from at least 8 kHz to above 20 kHz, but most energy is concentrated within the range 8–12 kHz. The dominant frequency is about 10 kHz. Males sang from perches on vertical surfaces (e.g. ferns, tree trunks, small branches) around 2–4 m aboveground in the forest interior. The song of Philipsalta exilis Lee and Marshall sp. nov. can be distinguished from that of the next new species of Philipsalta (below) by the absence of a short single-doublet element ending many of the phrases and by the uniform rate of production of pulse doublets within the first syllable/echeme. Philipsalta exilis and P. nigrina have a similar song structure, but in the latter species the pulses in the first section of each phrase form widely separated four-pulse syllables, the intervening gaps being much longer than the syllables., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Remarks As Lee (2010, 2015) indicated, the identity of this species in the Philippines should be reconsidered. The female type of P. guttularis is hardly distinguishable from the female paratype of P. nana as shown in Lee (2009a). We suspect that the record of P. guttularis from Mindanao is due to misidentification. Purana guttularis may have to be removed from the cicada list of Mindanao., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

7. Chremistica flavialata Lee and Marshall sp. nov. (Figures 7, 8) Type material Holotype. Male, specimen code 12.PH. MN. MUS.15, PHILIPPINES, Mindanao, Bukidnon, Maramag, Mt. Musuan, 7°52.62 ʹ N, 125°4.19 ʹ E, 5 May 2012, K.B. R. Hill, D.C. Marshall and A.B. Mohagan (NMPM). Paratypes. 1 male, PHILIPPINES, Mindanao, Bukidnon, Maramag, Bayabason, P 4B, 8 May 2012, R. Estorco and A.B. Mohagan (UCONN); 3 males, PHILIPPINES, Mindanao, Malaybalay City, San Martin, 24 August 2010, A.B. Mohagan (UCONN).

Inner area of pronotum black to fuscous with a pair of narrow transverse ochraceous fascia on anterior margin and median longitudinal thick ochraceous fascia, and irregularly spread dull purplish patches. Pronotal collar dull light green (or ochraceous in discoloured specimens) with dull ochraceous antero-lateral part and a pair of branch-like black marks derived from lateral corner of inner area. Anterolateral pronotal collar slightly developed and roundly angulated. Mesonotum black with the following dull greenish ochraceous (or reddish ochraceous in discoloured specimens) marks: median W-shaped mark along outside of submedian sigilla, extending to anterior arms of cruciform elevation; and a pair of longitudinal marks along lateral margin of mesonotum, connected to the median W-shaped mark posteriorly. Cruciform elevation reddish brown (dull brown in discoloured specimens) medially but dull light green (ochraceous in discoloured specimens) laterally with the following black marks: antero-median spot; narrow fascia along posterior margin; and a pair of spots on middle of anterior arms. Thoracic sternites dull brown to dull ochraceous with some black trivial marks. Legs reddish brown to ochraceous.

Fore wing venation dull greenish ochraceous (ochraceous in discoloured specimens) basally and brownish to fuscous apically, without infuscation. Basal cell more tinged with green. Basal membrane grey (tinged with green in fresh specimens). Hind wing jugum grey. Operculum reddish brown with black antero-lateral margin; much longer than wide, with slightly oblique and convex lateral margin and rounded apical margin; nearly reaching or slightly passing beyond posterior margin of abdominal sternite II. Opercula meeting medially. Abdomen slightly longer than head and thorax together; black with a pair of narrow white pubescent fasciae along anterior margin of tergite 3.

A pair of claspers originating from lateroventral uncus hidden behind uncus and lateral lobes. Aedeagus without subapical or ventral processes. Basal lobe of pygofer long, with roundish apex and with slender finger- or thumb-like protrusion branching out at subapical inner part of the basal lobe. Lateral lobe present, much longer than basal lobe and obliquely covering basal lobe. Dorsal beak narrowly triangular. Remarks This new species is similar to Chremistica tagalica (Stål, 1870) (TL: Philippine Islands) in marks and colours on the body but can be distinguished from C. tagalica mainly by the following characteristics: head comparatively narrow (vs wider than width of pronotal collar in C. tagalica); pronotal collar with short and wide triangular black mark on medioposterior margin (vs without such a mark in C. tagalica); male abdomen comparatively wide or thick, with tergite 3 wider than head including compound eyes (vs comparatively narrow or slender, with tergite 3 narrower than head including compound eyes in C. tagalica); transverse white marks on abdominal tergite 3 narrow (vs broader, covering whole tergite 3 laterally, in C. tagalica); uncus without bumps on underside (vs with bumps in C. tagalica); and, finally and most importantly, basal lobe of pygofer with slender finger- or thumb-like protrusion branching out at subapical inner part of the basal lobe (vs with very short protrusion at subapical inner part of the basal lobe in C. tagalica). Song (Figure 8) The holotype male was recorded for about 102 s at 2.58pm on 5 May 2012.A further recording of 103 s of anonymous males from the same location on 7 July 2010 was also examined. Song is produced in phrases of 9.5– 11.5 s duration, separated by slightly shorter gaps. A song phrase contains a complex range of 12–13 major frequency bands appearing at intervals of about 0.65 kHz from 1.8–8.9 kHz,with the middle frequencies being the loudest (much weaker bands extend beyond this range). The acoustic character of the song is dominated by a synchronised sharp frequency and amplitude modulation of about 8–9 cycles/s at the beginning of the phrase, accelerating to 12/s during the middle section, which is also louder, and then slowing again. The spectrum of frequencies also shifts slightly downward in concert by about 100–200 Hz during the central section of the phrase, and then rebounds. Sound pulses produced at about 588–606/s form the most basic structure of the song., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

1. Platypleura bella Lee and A. Mohagan sp. nov. (Figures 2, 3, 6 (B)) Type material Holotype. Male, PHILIPPINES, Mindanao, Bukidnon, Mt. Kiamo, 7 May 2012, A.B. Mohagan (NMPM). Paratypes. 1 male, 1 female, same data as holotype, A.B. Mohagan (UCONN); 2 males, PHILIPPINES, Mindanao, Mt. Kitanglad trailhead, 1689 m, 08°10.22 ʹ N, 124°56.14 ʹ E, 4 May 2012, K.B. R. Hill, D.C. Marshall and D. Mohagan (UCONN); 1 female, same location, 1 May 2012, K.B. R. Hill, D.C. Marshall and D. Mohagan (UCONN). Etymology The specific name is the Latin feminine adjective bella meaning ̍pretty̾ or ̍handsome̾. Measurements of types (4 males, 2 females) Length of body: males 20.6 (19.6–21.2), females 19.8 (18.7–20.8). Length of head and thorax together: males 10.5 (9.9–10.7), females 10.6 (10.3–10.8). Length of abdomen: males 10.1 (9.7–10.6), females 9.2 (8.4–10.0). Width of head including compound eyes: males 8.5 (8.4–8.6), females 8.8 (8.5–9.1). Width of pronotum: males 11.5 (10.8–12.2), females 11.7 (11.2–12.1). Width of mesonotum: males 8.8 (8.7–9.1), females 8.9 (8.4–9.4). Width of abdominal tergite 3: males 9.3 (9.0–9.7), females 9.4 (9.3–9.5). Length of fore wing: males 28.4 (27.9–28.9), females 29.6 (29.2–30.0). Width of fore wing: males 10.2 (9.8–10.4), females 10.7 (10.6–10.8). Wing span: males 65.8 (65.4–66.6), females 67.5 (65.6–69.4). Diagnosis This new species is very similar to Platypleura elizabethae Lee, 2009 (Figure 6 (C)) from Palawan but has much less infuscation on the inner half of the fore wing and the hind wing and has the following differences: fore wing apical cell 6 seldom with infuscation or with tiny spot on its proximal end (vs with quite large infuscation on about its proximal sixth in P. elizabethae); fore wing medial cell with a few tiny grey spots (vs with cloudy patterns covering about half of the cell in P. elizabethae); and fore wing apical cells 5 and 6 each with multiple tiny sub-distal spots (vs with no such spots in P. elizabethae). This species can be distinguished from Platypleura transitiva Lee, 2021 (from Mindanao) (Figure 6 (D)) by the following characteristics: fore wing basal cell with black patch or infuscation on about half of its area (vs basal cell entirely black in P. transitiva); and hind wing apical cells 1–2 fuscous on about or less than half of their area (vs fuscous on far more than half of their area in P. transitiva). Platypleura bella sp. nov. is also similar to P. minima sp. nov., as explained in the Diagnosis for that taxon below. Description of male Head. Vertex ochraceous to castaneous with the following black marks: median large spot enclosing ocelli, with anterior and posterior ends reaching anterior and posterior margins of vertex, and with short transverse branch at each lateral end; a pair of small spots between lateral ocelli and compound eyes; a pair of small spots on posterolateral corners of vertex; a pair of short obliquely longitudinal fasciae between postclypeus and compound eyes; and a pair of narrow fasciae along compound eyes. Distance between lateral ocelli and compound eyes about twice the distance between lateral ocelli. Antenna mostly castaneous but pedicel and scape black to fuscous.

Pronotal collar darkened anteriorly and laterally on both sides. Anterolateral pronotal collar broadly developed and roundly angulated with an angle of 100–110°, expanding to a width much greater than the widest width of posterior pronotum, mesonotum and abdomen. Mesonotum reddish ochraceous with the following black marks: median longitudinal fascia, with its posterior end widened and reaching anterior margin of cruciform elevation, but its anterior end not reaching anterior margin of mesonotum; a pair of small roundish spots enclosing scutal depressions; a pair of large semicircular spots on submedian sigilla, with their anterior ends reaching anterior margin of mesonotum; and a pair of long inverted triangular marks on lateral sigilla, with their anterior ends reaching anterior margin of mesonotum. Cruciform elevation ochraceous to greenish ochraceous. Fore-, mid- and hind trochanters and femora brown to dark brown. Wings. Fore wing outer margin (not anterior margin) slightly curved outwardly (not straight or linear).

Basal membrane dark grey with light green or green margin. Hind wing fuscous except outer marginal area and apical portion of apical cells 1–6. Anal cell 2 fuscous on about basal one-third to two-thirds. Anal cell 4 fuscous on about basal half to two-thirds. Anal cell 5 fuscous on about basal half to twothirds. Hind wing jugum light grey with light green margin. Operculum mostly fuscous except greenish ochraceous margin; semicircular, transversely wide; short, nearly reaching posterior margin of abdominal sternite II. Opercula overlapping medially. Abdomen obconical in dorsal view, short, about as long as or slightly shorter than head and thorax together; mostly black with narrow greenish ochraceous caudal margin on each of tergites 3–8. Timbal cover black to fuscous with greenish ochraceous inner anterior margin; semicircular, wider than long. Timbal concealed by timbal cover in dorsal and lateral views. Abdominal sternites mostly black with greenish ochraceous caudal margin on each of sternites III–VI. Genitalia. Pygofer long ellipsoidal with acuminate apex (wide dorsal beak) in ventral view. Uncus simple, not bifurcate, with apical margin rounded. Aedeagus not tapering down to apex, with short subapical process. Description of female Head, thorax and wings similar to male. Abdomen obconical in dorsal view, short, shorter than head and thorax together; mostly black with narrow greenish ochraceous to dull brown (probably due to discoloration) caudal margin on each of tergites 3–7. Abdominal sternites mostly black with greenish ochraceous caudal margin on each of sternites III–VI. Abdominal sternite VII with a pair of large paramedian patches, extending to posterior margin. Gonocoxite IX greenish ochraceous to dull brown (probably due to discoloration). Ovipositor not extending beyond dorsal beak. Song (Figure 3) About 500 s of song was recorded from uncollected males on 1–2 May 2012, at three locations on Mt. Kitanglad, including the paratype location. The sound is a continuous whining buzz with a rapid frequency modulation. Pulses are regularly produced at a rate of 434–450/s. Pulse amplitude more than doubles across oscillations that occur at a rate of 35–40/s, with the peak frequency subtly shifting within the range 8–9 kHz across these cycles. Most sound energy lies within the range 7.5–10 kHz. The distinguishing features of the song are discussed along with those of the next species below., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

This new species has two longitudinally arranged fasciae or spots on the lateral sigillum, which are always separate from each other. This characteristic is seen only in Purana mindanaoensis Lee and Marshall sp. nov. and Purana natae Boulard, 2007. Other species of the Purana carmente species group have only one long, continuous longitudinal fascia on the lateral sigillum, except for Purana barbosae (Distant, 1889), which has no such distinct fasciae or spots at all on the lateral sigillum. The male operculum of this new species has a broadly black patch along the inner margin, about half as wide as the operculum. The following eight species have a much thinner or nearly absent black patch on the male operculum: Purana barbosae, Purana obducta Schouten and Duffels, 2002, Purana sagittata, 2002, Purana infuscata, 2002, Purana mickhuanae Boulard, 2009, Purana natae, Purana phetchabuna Boulard, 2008 and Purana tanae Boulard, 2007. The following eight species have their own peculiar uncus shapes, respectively: Purana carmente (Walker, 1850), Purana hermes Schouten and Duffels, 2002, Purana infuscata, Purana sagittata, Purana chueatae Boulard, 2007, Purana mickhuanae, Purana natae and Purana tanae (see Schouten and Duffels 2002; Boulard 2013). The remaining species of the Purana carmente species group, including Purana mindanaoensis, have somewhat similar uncus shapes, but Purana mindanaoensis has largely expanded lateral uncal lobes, which are larger or more developed than those of any other species of the Purana carmente species group. Purana dimidia Chou and Lei, 1997 has a comparatively short male operculum. Purana trui Pham et al., 2012 has very thin longitudinal fascia on the timbal cover, a very broad black patch on the male operculum, and a blunt apical angle of the basal lobe of pygofer. Purana opaca Lee, 2009 has darker body pigmentation and an almost entirely black timbal cover and male operculum. Song (Figure 14) Recordings of the song of this species, totalling several minutes, were obtained at the type locality. The sound is a resonant, stuttering buzz with a bell-like quality, and it contains amplitude and frequency modulation as well as a complex pattern of fundamental pulses, syllables and echemes. The song is arranged into phrases that change in structure as a male continues to sing, progressing from shorter, usually isolated phrases, to longer ones up to ca.2 s often concatenated into sets lasting up to 49s in our limited sample. In its most developed form, a single phrase usually consists of 4–6 repeated echemes, each comprising (1) an initial syllable containing coalesced pulses lasting about 40–80 ms, (2) a shorter syllable containing isolated pulses repeated at about 180/s, and (3) ca. 1–3 higher amplitude syllables lasting 15–50 ms and containing pulses produced at about 360/s. The phrase begins and ends with less well-defined strings of pulses. Complex frequency and amplitude modulation patterns occur, with the loudest syllables having a lower dominant pitch (ca. 6.8 kHz) than the syllables containing coalesced pulses (14.2 kHz), and with the transition occurring during the syllables containing isolated pulses. Frequency modulation is also apparent at a shorter time scale, within individual pulses., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Kitanglad, including a sample from the holotype male, which is illustrated. The sound is a complex, resonant, amplitude-modulated buzz comprised mainly of pulse pairs (doublets) produced at approximately 100–150/s, although in a few samples the doublets are paired and in one segment the pulses appear briefly in threes. The song is produced in phrases containing, usually, one short echeme of ca. 0.6–1 s followed by a much longer echeme of ca. 8.5–11 s, sometimes with the phrases paired or strung together into longer series. One male produced a series of phrases lasting at least 125 s. Both short and long echemes begin with a string of single pulses and continue with (usually) doublets. Phrases are separated by short silent gaps of ca. 40–110 ms, as are (commonly) the short and long echemes contained within a phrase, and occasionally a gap of a few tens of milliseconds in duration occurs within what otherwise appears to be one of the long syllables. Amplitude modulates considerably, with intensity increasing to nearly double on the waveform and then back down in one cycle for each short echeme, and once or sometimes twice for long echemes. In the latter case, the initial amplitude modulation resembles a second short echeme appended to the long echeme. This gives the song a slow ̍revving̾ quality. Frequency content is not modulated but is complex, including two major peaks around 3.5–5 (usually dominant) and 11–13 kHz and a least one weaker peak around 8.5 kHz. The holotype specimen was collected by attracting it down from its perch on a vertical tree trunk, by movement of the collector around the base of the tree and gentle scratching and tapping of the trunk, followed by climbing and hand-capture. The male continued to face upward while backing down the tree trunk., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Genus Purana Distant, 1905 Remarks The Purana carmente species group was proposed by Schouten and Duffels (2002), of which 16 member species have been found so far in southern China, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. The independence of the Purana carmente species group was also brought up by Lee (2009b). The new Purana species described below belongs to this species group. Two of the other Purana species of Mindanao, Purana nana Lee, 2009 and Purana crassinotata Lee, 2015, are included in the Purana abdominalis species group proposed by Lee (2009a). Lee (2009a) suggested Purana guttularis (Walker, 1858) be placed in the Purana ubina species group, but no male specimens have been confirmed. Its type specimen, which is a female, seems close to Purana kpaworensis Boulard, 2007, which was placed in the Purana tigrina species group by Lee (2009a), considering the similarities in fore wing venation. However, the species group placements of P. guttularis and P. kpaworensis need further study., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Cruciform elevation greenish ochraceous without distinct marks. Thoracic sternites greenish ochraceous. Legs greenish ochraceous to green with some brown parts and black to fuscous marks. Fore femur with primary and secondary spines and minute subapical spines. Wings hyaline, slightly tinged with brown. Fore wing costal vein mostly ochraceous but fuscous near node. Basal vein of apical cell 1 about one-third to one-fourth as long as longitudinal vein of the apical cell 1. Infuscation present at bases of apical cells 1–5 and 7– 8 and on cubitus anterior 2 vein. A distinct spot appearing on each hind margin of radius anterior 2, radius posterior, median 1–4 and cubitus anterior 1 veins, forming a series of spots on subapical margin of fore wing. Basal membrane and base of hind wing jugum greenish (bright blue in life). Operculum light greenish ochraceous without distinct marks; much wider than long, with rounded posterior apex passing beyond posterior margin of abdominal sternite II and with posterolateral corner almost straight but slightly convex. Opercula separated from each other. Abdomen obconical in dorsal view, short, shorter than or about as long as head and thorax together. Tergites 2–8 mostly castaneous, with light green to green posterior margins (blue in life). Tergites 2–5 with a pair of fuscous paramedian patches. Tergites 4–8 with a pair of lateral fuscous patches. Posterior margin of tergite 3 much wider than pronotum or mesonotum. Timbal cover dull greenish ochraceous with black to fuscous patch along posterior margin; globose, wider than long, with anterior and posterior inner corners smoothly rounded. Timbal completely concealed by timbal cover in dorsal view. Abdominal sternites II–VIII fuscous, with green posterior margins of sternites III–VI. Genitalia. Pygofer barrel-shaped in ventral view. Uncus bifurcate. Uncal lobes each divided into two parts: a long external part, and a shorter internal part, which is less than half as long as external part: in ventral view, external parts curved and extended obliquely laterad, and internal parts convexly curved with tips directed inward; in lateral view, external parts convexly curved with tips directed inward, and internal parts curved inward. Aedeagus slender. Dorsal beak long, narrow, about as long as anal styles. Remarks This species is very similar to Oncotympana averta but can be distinguished from O. averta by the following characteristics: body distinctly larger; infuscation present at base of apical cells 4 and 8 (vs absent there in O. averta); basal membrane and base of hind wing jugum greenish (vs greyish in O. averta); operculum with posterolateral corner almost straight but slightly convex (vs slightly concave in O. averta); posterior margin of tergite 3 much wider than pronotum or mesonotum (vs about as wide as or slightly narrower than mesonotum in O. averta); abdominal sternites II–VIII fuscous (vs sternites II– V mostly ochraceous but sternites VI–VIII fuscous in O. averta); timbal cover globose but more or less flat (vs much more prominently globose in O. averta); dark-coloured patch absent on inner corner of timbal cover (vs present in O. averta); external parts of uncal lobes curved and extended obliquely laterad in ventral view (vs nearly parallel to each other but with curved tips extended obliquely laterad in O. averta); and internal parts of uncal lobes convexly curved with tips directed inward in ventral view (vs concavely curved with hooked tips extended laterad in O. averta). Song (Figure 10) Recordings of male calling song totalling 320 s were taken at the type locality (the holotype male is illustrated). Males were recorded producing song in phrases of 4–11 s duration (4–6 most common) comprised of two-syllable echemes repeated at about 5.2– 6.5 echemes/s. Note that such values are commonly dependent on temperature. The syllables within each echeme contain strongly contrasting sound frequencies. The first syllable contains most of its sound energy within the range 7–15 kHz, with a peak at about 10 kHz, while the second syllable, which is nearly an order of magnitude quieter than the first, contains sound energy with a peak of 4.5 kHz and a broad shoulder of quieter frequencies ranging from 2–16 kHz. The fundamental sound pulses are produced at about 225/s in the first syllable, which lasts 0.04 s, and slightly faster at about 235/s in the second syllable which is twice as long. This species sang from low stations on tree trunks in the forest understory in low light conditions, as early as 7.00am. Males could be attracted by mouth-clicks or finger-snaps produced a fraction of a second after the end of the complete song phrase. Immediately after hearing the response, the male would flick his wings with a synchronised timbal click, before turning or moving in the direction of the sound. Several specimens from the paratype series were collected with this technique., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

Postclypeus not swollen anteriad and rather flat ventrally; dull ochraceous with broad black median fascia. Anteclypeus dull ochraceous with median fuscous fascia and fuscous lateral margins. Rostrum ochraceous with black apex; with apex extending slightly beyond posterior margin of mid coxa. Lorum dull ochraceous with black longitudinal spot on inner corner of lorum. Gena dull ochraceous with black spot on inner corner of gena. Thorax. Pronotum dull ochraceous. Inner area of pronotum with the following black to fuscous marks: tiny indistinct spot on posteromedian margin of inner area; a pair of short longitudinal fasciae between about middle of paramedian fissures and posterior ends of lateral fissures; a pair of fasciae along paramedian fissures, with their posterior parts indistinct; a pair of fasciae along lateral fissures; and a pair of curved fasciae along lateral margins of inner area. Pronotal collar very narrow; without distinct marks. Anterolateral pronotal collar not dentate. Mesonotum dull ochraceous with a pair of black to fuscous patches on entire submedian sigilla and a pair of larger longitudinal patches on almost entire lateral sigilla but partly indistinct. Cruciform elevation light ochraceous without marks. Thoracic sternites ochraceous. Legs ochraceous to dull brown with some fuscous marks. Fore femur with primary, secondary and subapical spines. Wings hyaline without infuscation; with extremely narrow marginal areas. Fore wing venation dull brown basally but fuscous distally. Basal membrane grey. Hind wing with six apical cells. Operculum small, semicircular, with lateral margin slightly concave, not reaching posterior margin of sternite II; light ochraceous. Opercula separated from each other. Abdomen triangular in dorsal view, much longer than head and thorax together; ochraceous. Tergite 1 about half as long as tergite 2 in median length. Tergites 3–7 each with fuscous spot anteromedially. A pair of fuscous globose bumps present on lateral margins of tergite 2. Timbal cover absent. Timbals not extending below wing bases ventrally. Abdominal sternites ochraceous with greyish patches irregularly. Genitalia. Pygofer ovate with triangular dorsal beak in ventral view. Upper lobe moderately pointed. Dorsal beak triangular. Median lobe of uncus very short. A pair of clasperlike processes protruding downward but slightly curved, with apices heading outward. Remarks This new species can be distinguished from Philipsalta exilis Lee and Marshall sp. nov. mainly by the following characteristics, besides the differences in colours and marks: fore wing ulnar cell 2 more spacious than ulnar cell 1 (vs smaller than ulnar cell 1 in P. exilis); male operculum with lateral margin slightly concave (vs not concave in P. exilis); male abdomen with convex lateral margins in dorsal view (vs with almost linear marginal lines in P. exilis); median lobe of uncus comparatively short (vs moderately protruding, longer in P. exilis); and clasper-like processes slightly curved outward in ventral view (vs straight in P. exilis). Song (Figure 20) A 70s song sample was recorded from the holotype male and is illustrated here. Males produce phrases of 0.1– 0.16 s duration at 1.8–2.6 phrases/s. Most phrases contain a single echeme followed by an isolated doublet after a silent gap of about 11–13 ms; some phrases lack the final doublet. The quality of the one recording is weak, in part due to environmental noise and echo, but for the clearest phrases the main echeme exhibits a complex pulse pattern, with sets of three stronger pulses or doublets produced at 350 pulses/s separated by single weaker pulses, and with the gaps preceding and following the weaker pulses being shorter than those separating the main pulses. The frequency spectrum is broad, reaching from at least 8 kHz to well above 20 kHz, and has a peak around 13 kHz. Both the sound frequency and amplitude increase somewhat during the first half of each song phrase. The song of Philipsalta lata Lee and Marshall sp. nov. is distinguishable from those of P. exilis and P. nigrina by the short single-doublet element ending most phrases, as well as by the complex 3 + 1 pulse pattern within the main echeme (P. exilis and P. nigrina have pulses or doublets produced at a uniform rate)., Published as part of Lee, Young June, Marshall, David C., Mohagan, Alma B., Hill, Kathy B.

RHODOPSALTA EVOLUTIONARY SCENARIOS Rhodopsalta microdora split from its congeners ~5.5 Mya according to the *BEAST analysis (see Fig. 4), at the beginning of the Pliocene epoch. At this time, NI was separated from SI by a wide sea strait, the Manawatu Strait (Fig. 1). We suggest a few hypotheses to shed light on the potential evolutionary scenarios for Rhodopsalta. These scenarios are based on mean date estimates, but alternative scenarios might be supported if the true dates are substantially different for reasons noted above., Published as part of Bator, John, Marshall, David C, Hill, Kathy B R, Cooley, John R, Leston, Adam & Simon, Chris, 2022, Phylogeography of the endemic red-tailed cicadas of New Zealand (Hemiptera: Cicadidae: Rhodopsalta), and molecular, morphological and bioacoustical confirmation of the existence of Hudson's Rhodopsalta microdora, pp. 1219-1244 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 (4) on page 1233, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab065, http://zenodo.org/record/6985713

RHODOPSALTA SPECIES PHYLOGEOGRAPHY TREETOMAP (Maya-Lastra, 2020), an interactive program used to explore phylogeny and biogeography, was used to plot a map of the primary Rhodopsalta geographical subclades within each species (Fig. 6). These patterns are described below., Published as part of Bator, John, Marshall, David C, Hill, Kathy B R, Cooley, John R, Leston, Adam & Simon, Chris, 2022, Phylogeography of the endemic red-tailed cicadas of New Zealand (Hemiptera: Cicadidae: Rhodopsalta), and molecular, morphological and bioacoustical confirmation of the existence of Hudson's Rhodopsalta microdora, pp. 1219-1244 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 (4) on page 1227, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab065, http://zenodo.org/record/6985713, {"references":["Maya-Lastra CA. 2020.

Rhodopsalta microdora (Hudson, 1936) (Supporting Information, Figs S4, S 7, S 8) Rhodopsalta microdora was described by G. V. Hudson as Melampsalta microdora from two female specimens collected at Cape Kidnappers on the NI (see Supporting Information, Supplementary Materials); the smaller of these two syntypes was designated as the lectotype by Fleming & Ordish (1966). No male specimens were discussed by Hudson, who referred to the species as a diminutive version of Kikihia scutellaris Walker, 1850 without mentioning R. cruentata. Dugdale (1972) omitted mention of R. microdora while listing R. cruentata and R. leptomera for his description of genus Rhodopsalta, and Larivière et al. (2010) discussed the uncertainty of the status of R. microdora. In many NZ cicadas, females are substantially different in appearance from males of the same species, and they are generally paler, often lacking well-defined aspects of species-specific coloration commonly observed in males. This has probably contributed to the neglect of Hudson’s taxon. We examined a large series of Rhodopsalta specimens from Cape Kidnappers, the type location of R. microdora, collected after the description of R. microdora and kept at the National Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongariro (also discussed by Larivière et al., 2010). Rhodopsalta microdora and R. cruentata, as here defined, are broadly sympatric in that region (but not R. leptomera). Our findings suggest that Hudson’s selection of a female syntype series might be attributable to clearer differentiation from R. cruentata in that sex. The male Rhodopsalta specimens from Cape Kidnappers range from larger ones tending to possess a prominent silvery midline stripe, as in R. cruentata, to smaller males with often subtler or nearly absent stripes, as described for Hudson’s female R. microdora specimens, but there is no large break in size to separate the males of the two species, and the silvery pubescence varies considerably throughout the series, perhaps owing to wear. In contrast, the nine female specimens group into two distinct clusters (see Supporting Information, Supplementary Materials), the smaller one with dimensions accommodating those of the R. microdora lectotype and paralectotype, which are also lodged at Te Papa. We provide photographs of the R. microdora lectotype (Supporting Information, Fig. S7), in addition to a comparison of R. cruentata and R. microdora females from the Cape Kidnappers series (Supporting Information, Fig. S8). Therefore, we are confident that the smaller-bodied Rhodopsalta species that we are calling R. microdora, which we have collected from Ocean Beach south of Cape Kidnappers, is indeed Hudson’s species. We note that the path taken by the Endeavour on its first voyage also helps to show that the R. cruentata lectotype specimen is unlikely to belong to the species we have identified as R. microdora. According to Banks’s journal (Banks, 1896), on the NI the Endeavour anchored at Poverty Bay, Anaura Bay, Tolaga Bay, Mercury Bay, the Thames River tidal portion and the Bay of Islands. Endeavour then sailed along the northernmost point of NI and down the west coast without stopping until arriving at the Marlborough Sounds (SI) and anchoring at Ship Cove in Queen Charlotte Sound. Although Endeavour circumnavigated the SI, it did so without stopping until it returned to the Marlborough Sounds and anchored in Low Neck Bay, D’Urville Island. Based on our records (Fig. 2), none of these locations is within the range of the taxon we have identified as R. microdora. We have not surveyed D’Urville Island, but this location lies ~ 50 km north of the nearest known populations of R. microdora, and it was visited by Banks in late March, which is late in the season for that species, based on our records. Rhodopsalta microdora inhabits drier scrub environments along the eastern sides of NI and SI. We have often found this species singing on matagouri shrubs (Discaria toumatou Raoul)., Published as part of Bator, John, Marshall, David C, Hill, Kathy B R, Cooley, John R, Leston, Adam & Simon, Chris, 2022, Phylogeography of the endemic red-tailed cicadas of New Zealand (Hemiptera: Cicadidae: Rhodopsalta), and molecular, morphological and bioacoustical confirmation of the existence of Hudson's Rhodopsalta microdora, pp. 1219-1244 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 195 (4) on page 1238, DOI: 10.1093/zoolinnean/zlab065, http://zenodo.org/record/6985713, {"references":["Hudson GV. 1936.
