A synoptic list and key of the cicadas of Uruguay is provided to complete the country lists of the South American cicada fauna. Fidicina gastracanthophora Berg, 1879 is shown to be a distinct species, is resurrected from junior synonymy, and reassigned to a new genus to become Acanthoventris gastracanthophora (Berg, 1879) revised status, n. comb. The species is redescribed to facilitate differentiating it in its new genus. The female of Acanthventris drewseni (Stål, 1854), the type species of the genus, is described and illustrated. The known ranges of Acanthoventris charrua Ruschel (in Ruschel et al.), 2023, A. drewseni (Stål, 1854), A. iara Ruschel (in Ruschel et al.), 2023, A. igneus Ruschel (in Ruschel et al.), 2023, and A. olivarius Ruschel (in Ruschel et al.), 2023 are expanded. The currently known cicada fauna for Uruguay is determined to be 12 species, 10 genera, four tribes and three subfamilies, the lowest known alpha diversity of any South American country.

The natural history of Neotropical cicadas is poorly understood. Here, we describe comparatively the spatio-temporal distribution and acoustic dynamics of two Carinetini cicadas in sympatry: colourful-cicada, Carineta diardi, and eryngo-cicada, Guaranisaria llanoi. Males of both species emit conspicuous acoustic signals during flight, a rare behaviour in cicadas. Although sympatric and synchronic, these species are not syntopic, occurring in different habitats: colourful-cicada occurs in Atlantic Forest and eryngo-cicada in native Pampean grasslands. Vertical stratification also occurs: colourful-cicada flies, sings, and copulates along the forest edge and canopy (above 2 m), while eryngo-cicada flies, sings, and copulates only in open areas (below 1 m), performing directional flights between the ‘Gravatá’ eryngo patches—a keystone plant species used as shelter, and calling and reproduction site. Acoustic repertoires vary between species: colourful-cicada presents two types of signals (flying and calling songs) and eryngo-cicada has four types (flying, calling, courtship, and wing-flicks emitted by the females). Furthermore, acoustic differences between species were found in the flying songs, but no specific differences were found in the peak frequency of their calling songs. These results show that spatial use of ‘flying singer’ cicadas can vary in habitat, providing coexistence in sympatry.
... In this study, we describe for the first time the acoustic repertoire of two Carinetini species: the Colorful-cicada, Carineta diardi (Guérin-Méneville 1829) and the Eryngo-cicada, Guaranisaria llanoi Torres, 1964. Museum and citizen science data indicate that adults of both species are sympatric and synchronic in southern Brazil in spring (Torres, 1964;Lenicov et al., 2015;Cioato, 2017;Kaminski, 2022). Thus, we expected that there would exist some differences in acoustic signals between species in frequency or rhythm, or that they would occur in different horizontal or vertical stratum, and different association with host plant species. ...

O som emitido pelos organismos é um componente biológico e físico. Nos “insetos cantores” a bioacústica é uma questão ainda pouco explorada, apesar da relevância destes sinais para sua ecologia e evolução. O registro e identificação dos sons em insetos é insipiente, principalmente no contexto do monitoramento acústico. Assim, o objetivo desta Tese é identificar, descrever e relacionar os parâmetros espectrais e temporais dos sons de chamado das espécies de grilos, esperanças, gafanhotos (Orthoptera) e cigarras (Hemiptera) no Sul do Brasil. Para isso, são apresentados quatro capítulos, sendo o primeiro um guia acústico-visual com as espécies da Savana Uruguaia (Brasil e Uruguai); o segundo avaliou a partição de nicho acústico entre insetos cantores em áreas de vegetação nativa aberta e fechada no bioma Pampa; o terceiro analisou a distribuição espaço temporal em duas cigarras simpátricas da tribo Carinetini; o quarto capítulo descreve uma assembleia acústica de grilos cantores de copa em Floresta Atlântica com Araucaria. Para as gravações dos insetos foi utilizado o gravador digital portátil Tascam DR-100 MKIII, com taxa de amostragem entre 48 kHz e 96 kHz. Para o monitoramento acústico foram utilizados os gravadores SongMeter 2 ou Audiomoth 1.2.0, configurados sob taxa de amostragem 44 kHz, registrando 1 minuto a cada 5 minutos, ao longo de 15 dias. No primeiro capítulo apresentamos o repetório de mais de 65 espécies de insetos cantores distribuídas entre 13 espécies de cigarras, 18 espécies de esperanças, 4 espécies de gafanhotos e 30 espécies de grilos. No segundo capítulo observamos que areas de vegeção aberta apresentam um número maior de espécies, mas ambientes de vegetação fechada apresentam o dobro de registros acústicos destas espécies. Embora o NMDS tenha formado dois agrupamentos distintos, a composição de espécies não diferiu entre a área aberta e de floresta fechada. No terceiro capítulo apresentamos o repertório acústico e o comportamento de acasalamento de duas cigarras simpátricas, mas não sintópicas, Carineta diardi (Guérin-Méneville, 1829) e Guaranisaria llanoi Torres, 1964. A primeira apresenta repertório com som de voo e chamado, enquanto a segunda apresenta o som de voo, chamado, corte e wing-flick, este último emitido pelas fêmeas. Destaque para o som de voo, registro inédito para a região Neotropical. No quarto capítulo apresentamos uma assembleia acústica composta por quatro espécies de grilos. Com estes capítulos apresentamos, disponibilizamos e demonstramos o repertório de espécies da ecorregião Savana Uruguaia e sul da Floresta Atlântica, que podem servir de base para estudos de monitoramento acústico, comportamento e evolução de insetos.

The records for Adusella insignifera (Berg, 1879) n. comb. and Adusella venturii (Distant, 1906c) n. comb. are the first records of the tribe Zammarini Distant, 1905b, subtribe Zammarina Distant, 1905a, and genus Adusella, Tympanoterpes virgulata n. sp. is the first record of the genus Tympanoterpes Stål, 1861, Majeorona lutea Distant, 1906d is the first record for the genus Majeorona Distant, 1905d, Parnisa santacruzensis n. sp. is the first record of the genus Parnisa Stål, 1862a for Bolivia, specimens in the type series of Cracenpsaltria nana n. sp. represent the first record of the genus Cracenpsaltria Sanborn, 2016c in Ecuador, and the specimens of Herrera concolor n. sp., Herrera freiae n. sp., Herrera melanomesocranon n. sp., Herrera phyllodes n. sp., and Herrera signifera n. sp., and Herrera turbida (Jacobi, 1907) n. comb. and the new combinations to the genus are the first records of the genus Herrera Distant, 1905c for Bolivia, Brazil, French Guiana, and Peru. New records are provided to expand the ranges of Proarna alalonga Sanborn & Heath, 2014 and Carineta gemella to include Paraguay, the range of Dorisiana noriegai Sanborn & Heath, 2014 to include Paraguay and French Guiana, the range of Guyalna platyrhina to include Brazil, and the range of Carineta cearana to include Colombia. Previous records of Proarna bufo Distant, 1905d and Carineta fasciculata (Germar, 1821) are considered to be misidentifications P. bergi (Distant, 1892a) and Carineta bilineosa Walker 1858b rev. stat. so that P. bufo and C. fasciculata are removed from the cicada fauna of Bolivia as is Hemisciera maculipennis (de Laporte, 1832) which is shown to have been mistakenly attributed to Bolivia and Argentina. The non-Bolivian Carineta criqualicae Boulard 1986a, Carineta guianaensis Sanborn, 2011a, Carineta quinimaculata Sanborn, 2011a, and Carineta tigrina Boulard 1986a are reassigned to the genus Herrera to become Herrera criqualicae (Boulard, 1986a) n. comb., Herrera guianaensis (Sanborn, 2011a) n. comb., Herrera quinimaculata (Sanborn, 2011a) n. comb., and Herrera tigrina (Boulard, 1986a) n. comb., respectively. A discussion on the species status of Carineta fasciculata (Germar, 1821) is provided to clarify the taxon along with the new synonymy. The currently known Bolivian cicada fauna is comprised of 83 described species from 21 genera, seven tribes and three subfamilies with the new records and new species presented here increasing the known fauna by 107.5%.

Biological collections kept by museums have more than a public education value, and offer
unique opportunities for taxonomic studies and a continued value to the study of biodiversity. The Museo de
La Plata (MLP), Buenos Aires, Argentina, holds one of the most important insect collections of species from
the Neotropical region, with nearly two million individuals from all orders present in the Neotropics. This
report assessed the curatorial status of the General Collection (excluding types) of Membracoidea and
Cercopoidea from MLP. The authors analyzed the material of Aetalionidae, Melizoderidae, Membracidae,
Cercopidae and Clastopteridae. Based on data registered in labels attached to each pinned individual, they
calculated the following indexes of curatorial status: taxonomic representativity, geographic
representativity, taxonomic identification, spatial coverage, data completeness, biological associations
and historical record. Some of these are a modification of previous indexes from other researchers to
describe collections deposited elsewhere. The general level of conservation, ease of access to preserved
species, and the degree of identification of individuals were found to be good. Major shortfalls included a
lack of data in material collected prior to the 1950’s and a decrease in the number of Membracoidea
deposited in recent decades. Based on the results of this assessment, the authors demonstrate the ongoing
value of thorough documentation of collections to current research, the importance of information
surrounding specimen additions to an existing collection, and the ethical responsibilities to accuracy in data
collection that museum collections staff have to future generations of researchers.

Type material of 11 species from seven genera of Cercopoidea is housed at the Entomology Division of the Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo, Universidad Nacional de La Plata. The types listed herein correspond to species described by C. Berg (10 spp.) and Lallemand (1 sp.). The collection contains 24 type specimens. Lectotype and paralectotypes of Deois (Deois) knoblauchii (Berg), Kanaima katzensteinii (Berg), Mahanarva (Ipiranga) aguirrei (Berg), Tomaspis argentina Berg [= Deois terrea (Germar)], T. perezii Berg [= Deois terrea (Germar)] and T. platensis Berg are designated. Comparison of their original descriptions with the label information supports the existence of 2 holotypes, 6 lectotypes, 10 paralectotypes and 6 syntypes. The following information is given for each species: original species names, taxonomic catalogue, bibliographic references, type category, number of specimens, gender, Museo de La Plata code numbers, and transcription of data from labels (country, province, locality, date of collection, collector's name, and hosts). Information about subsequent nomenclatural changes with corresponding references, the state of preservation of the specimens in each series and pictures of each species are also provided.
Se caracterizó la diversidad de la colección de Hemiptera Cicadellidae del Museo de La Plata utilizando los siguientes indicadores: 1) Identificación taxonómica, grado de resolución taxonómica de la colección, 2) Representatividad taxonómica y geográfica de los especímenes montados, 3) Porcentaje de especímenes con asociaciones biológicas con plantas o parasitoides. Estos indicadores fueron comparados con los del Neotrópico y con la escala del Índice de Salud de Colecciones (escalas 6, 7 y 8). Se registraron 74 géneros, 119 especies y 2796 ejemplares de Cicadellinae, Coelidiinae, Deltocephalinae, Idiocerinae, Ledrinae y Xestocephalinae para Argentina más 110 especímenes del extranjero. Para la identificación taxonómica, el material se agrupó en cuatro categorías: A- Tipo etiquetado, fichado, catalogado y publicado, B- Identificado a especie, etiquetado, fichado, con datos biológicos (escalas 6 y 7), C- Identificado a género, etiquetado, fichado y D- Identificado a subfamilia, etiquetado, fichado (escala 8). Del grupo A se encontraron 166 especímenes, el grupo B representa el 94,95% de los ejemplares (2655) (escalas 6 y 7), del grupo C el porcentaje fue de 2,18% (61 ejemplares) y del grupo D el 2,86% (80 ejemplares) (8). La representatividad taxonómica de la colección es del 40,9% a subfamilia respecto al Neotrópico. A nivel genérico, las mejor representadas fueron Xestocephalinae, Ledrinae (33,3%), Cicadellinae (18,7%) y Deltocephalinae (17,7%). A nivel específico Ledrinae (12%), Deltocephalinae (6,5%) y Cicadellinae (4,2%). Cicadellinae y Deltocephalinae representan el 96% de los ejemplares. La representatividad geográfica respecto a la Argentina fue alta 86,95 %; sólo el 12,53% de los ejemplares presentó plantas asociadas.
The cicada genus Ariasa Distant, 1905 is redescribed. Ariasa albimaculosa n. sp. is described from Colombia and A. bar-tletti n. sp. is described from Peru. The current 14 species of Ariasa are listed along with their synonymies, known dis-tribution of each species, and a key to the species is provided. The first records of Ariasa bilaqueata (Uhler, 1903) for Peru and French Guiana are provided. Cracenpsaltria brasiliorum (Kirkaldy, 1909) rev. stat., n. comb. is determined to be the correct name for the taxon Cicada marginata Olivier, 1790 and the new genus Cracenpsaltria n. gen. is erected for the taxon. The distribution of C. brasiliorum rev. stat., n. comb. is expanded to include Bolivia and Peru.
