The Oriental ‘Fly-like’ Leafhoppers of the Subfamily Stegelytrinae – the Doda Group (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae)

The Oriental ‘fly-like’ leafhoppers of the Doda group are reviewed and a key is given for their separation. Two new genera and two new species are described: Pseudododa gen. n. (with type species P. orientalis sp. n.) and Aculescutellaris gen. n. (with type species A. hirtellus sp. n.). The variatio...

Zusammenfassung:The Oriental ‘fly-like’ leafhoppers of the Doda group are reviewed and a key is given for their separation. Two new genera and two new species are described: Pseudododa gen. n. (with type species P. orientalis sp. n.) and Aculescutellaris gen. n. (with type species A. hirtellus sp. n.). The variation within the former species is documented and illustrated, and the special mineral uptake behavior (‘mud-puddling’) of this genus and other Cicadellidae is reviewed.
