03E17111FF96FF8BFD667E4CFBFEF988.taxon	etymology	Etymology The generic name is an arbitrary combination of the name of the tribe ‘ Selizini’, which the new genus belongs to, and the name of the forest formation – ‘ tapia’, which the insect is associated with. Gender feminine.	en	Świerczewski, Dariusz, Stroiński, Adam (2021): Selizitapia gen. nov. (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Flatidae) from tapia woodlands of Madagascar.
