Angusta gen. n. of the cicada tribe Leptopsaltriini, with description of a new species from China (Hemiptera: Cicadidae).

ABSTRACT

Angusta gen. n. is erected in the cicada tribe Leptopsaltriini Moulton, 1923, and one new species, Angusta fangtingyui sp. n., is described from China. The relationship of this new genus to related taxa is discussed based on morphology and the phylogeny of Angusta fangtingyui gen. & sp. n. and representative species of subtribes Puranina, Leptopsaltriina, Euterpnosiina and Leptosemiina, which was reconstructed based on the concatenated dataset of three genes (COI + EF-1 + ARD1). Accordingly, Angusta gen. n. is assigned to Euterpnosiina of Leptopsaltriini.
