The species has previously been reported from Argentina, Uruguay, and Brazil (Metcalf 1963a; Ruffinelli 1970; Duffels and van der Laan 1985).Zammarini Distant, 1905 Zammara Amyot and Audinet-Serville, 1843 Zammara tympanum (Fabricius, 1803) Fidicinini Distant, 1905 Specimens examined.

Chonosia crassipennis has previously been reported from Argentina (Metcalf 1963c). Ariasa Distant, 1905 Ariasa nigrovittata Distant, 1905 Specimen examined. Photographs of a male from the Departamento Boquerón, Parque Nacional Teniente Agripino Enciso, 3 – X – 2007 were sent to the author for determination by Paul Smith. The specimen was released because the photographer lacked a permit to retain it for a collection. Guyalna Boulard and Martinelli, 1996 Guyalna bonaerensis (Berg, 1879)Hyantiini Distant, 1905 Quesada Distant, 1905 Quesada gigas (Olivier, 1790)CICADETTINAE Buckton, 1889Carinetini Distant, 1905 The new records bring the reported cicada fauna of Paraguay to 22 species in 12 genera from five tribes and three subfamilies of the family Cicadidae. The current list of species and their taxonomic position is provided in Table 1. However, there are some species listed which are questionable and it would be useful to have further verification of their existence in Paraguay. Carineta Amyot and Audinet-Serville, 1843 Carineta cingenda Distant, 1883 Carineta diardi (Guérin-Méneville, 1829) Carineta fasciculata (Germar, 1821) Carineta maculosa Torres, 1948 Carineta submarginata Walker, 1850 Carineta viridicollis (Germar, 1830) For example, the references to Zammara tympanum (Fabricius, 1803) by Berg (1883) may actually represent Z. strepens Amyotand Audinet-Serville, 1843. Ihaveidentified specimens of Z. strepens collected across the Paraná River from Paraguay in Argentina and have seen specimens of Z. strepens in collections that have been misidentified as Z. tympanum. There is no indication of where the specimens were collected in Paraguay so it is difficult to determine if they represent the true Z. tympanum or misidentified Z. strepens. The taxon Fidicina mannifera (Fabricius, 1803) has a tumultuous past with respect to its application. Boulard and Martinelli (1996) separated multiple species of Fidicina and their new genus Fidicinoides from what had previously been identified as F. mannifera in various collections. It may bethat thereferences to F. mannifera by Berg (1883) and Torres (1953) in Paraguay were actually the taxon now considered to be F. torresi. This is almost certainly the case with the Torres (1953) reference that discusses an outbreak of F. mannifera in Puerto Bemberg, Misiones, which is the type locality of F. torresi (Boulard and Martinelli 1996) and an area where Ihave personally collected F. torresi, and further supported by the specimen from Encarnación above. Similarly, Dorisiana semilata (Walker, 1850) has been reported from Costa Rica to Argentina and includes several synonymized species (Metcalf 1963a). Some species, such as Dorisiana viridis were incorrectly synonymized to D. semilata in the past. It may be that the specimens reported as D. semilata may actually have been D. viridis, another species Ihave collected across the Paraná River from Paraguay in Argentina. Guaranisaria Distant, 1905 Guaranisaria dissimilis Distant, 1905 TIBICININAE Distant, 1905 Tettigadini Distant, 1905 Chonosia Distant, 1905 Chonosia crassipennis (Walker, 1858)Tibicinini Distant, 1905 Ahomana Distant, 1905 Ahomana neotropicalis Distant, 1905Given that more than 100 species of cicadas inhabit Argentina and Brazil, it is highly probably that the cicada fauna of Paraguay will continue to become more diverse as additional specimens are collected. The association of cicadas to specific plant communities (e.g., Phillips and Sanborn 2007) combined with the phytogeographic regions sharedby Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay suggests that more of the species found in Argentina and/or Brazil will also eventually be found in Paraguay. In addition, none of the cicada species currently known from Paraguay are endemic, being that 21 species are also being found in Argentina and/or Brazil and the final species also being reported from Peru. There is still much to learn about the cicada fauna and biogeography within Paraguay as the majority of references tospecimens inhabitingthe country are in summary works without specific localities being provided (e.g., Berg 1883; Uhler 1903; Jacobi 1907).</div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03BC966CFFC4CF09C47CFD59FEB01ABA	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
