Abstract

Wolfniana gen.n. is proposed to include Cicadella limbatula Osborn, 1926. This species has a head that is more produced than in species of Rotigonalia Young, 1977 and the paraphyses are not V-shaped as in R. concedula (Melichar, 1926), and three new species described by Cavichioli (2000).
