Zusammenfassung:Of 68 species Metcalf (1938 Bull. Mus. Comp. Zool. 82: 277-423) illustrated and identified as previously described, 15 were correctly named, 17 were incorrect, and status of the others has not been checked by comparison with types. Eight species that Metcalf misidentified are here described as new: Pintalia metcalfi and Pintalia mettacta (Cixiidae) Herpis metcalfi (Derbidae), Lappida metchroma and Hyalodictyon metcalfi (Dictyopharidae), Anormenis metdiscus, Atracis metcalfi , and Flataloides metobliqua (Flatidae). Status of the others is listed. Four lectotypes are designated. Because the value of Metcalf (1938) is diminished as an introduction and key to Latin American planthoppers, a table with other keys to genera and species is provided.
