Material examined. 1♂, Pakistan, Punjab, Murree Hills, 2291m, 2016, coll. Hassan Naveed (holotype). 1♂, Pakistan, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Rawalakot City, 1638m, July 2017, coll. Hassan Naveed (paratype). 2♂♂, Pakistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Kumrat Valley, 2359m, August 2018, coll. Hassan Naveed (paratype). Remarks. This species resembles Stirellus convexus Thomson but differs in having the male pygofer side with macrosetae dorsally, in the style shape and in having the aedeagal shaft with a slight dorsal expansion. This species is also close to Stirellus multipunctatus Duan, Webb & Zhang but can be easily distinguished by the orange-red or brownish red stripes on the head interrupted medially, and by the pygofer and aedeagus shape.Published as part of Shah, Bismillah, Naveed, Hassan & Duan, Yani, 2020, Taxonomic review of the leafhopper genus Stirellus Osborn & Ball (Hemiptera Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae: Stenometopiini) from Pakistan with description of a new species, pp. 189-202 in Zootaxa 4763 (2) on page 191, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4763.2.3, http://zenodo.org/record/375820

Type material: Holotype: ♂, Pakistan, Abbottabad City, 1256m, 4 August 2016, Coll. Hassan Naveed. Paratypes: 1♀, same data as holotype; Azad Jammu & Kashmir: Rawalakot, 2♂, 1638m, 11 August 2017, Coll. Hassan Naveed; Azad Jammu & Kashmir: Toli Pir, 1♂, 1♀, 2682m, 12 August 2017, Coll. Hassan Naveed. Remarks. This new species is similar to G. constricta in external appearance but has a much shallower constriction of the lateral margins of the crown. This species belongs to the group with the crown constricted, that includes G. ceylonica and G. constricta. These species have very similar structure of the aedeagus, with a pair of long apical spines and a short lobe between them. The new species has unusually long apical processes of the aedeagus compared to the remaining species. Etymology. The epithet longispina refers to the apical spine-like processes of the aedeagus.Published as part of Naveed, Hassan & Zhang, Yalin, 2018, Revision of the leafhopper genus Gurawa (Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae: Chiasmini) from Pakistan with description of a new species, pp. 481-488 in Zootaxa 4450 (4) on pages 486-487, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4450.4.6, http://zenodo.org/record/144497

Hecalus veracious Naveed & Zhang 2018, sp. nov.
No full textHecalus veracious, sp. nov. (Fig. 6A–H; Plate IIG–I) Length. Male: 6mm; female: 7.6mm. Colouration and Morphology: Yellow greenish to pale yellowish in colour (Plate IIG). Crown and face without submarginal fuscous lines (Plate IIG, I). Crown pale yellowish in colour, with greenish fuscous spot on each side of dorsal marginal ridge. Pronotum yellowish green, laterally carinate. Scutellum with three yellowish longitudinal fuscous bands. Crown subangularly produced; triangular. Ocelli on margin next to eyes, prominent. Genae strongly sinuate below eyes. Pronotum as wide as head, laterally carinate. Genitalia: Pygofer lobe long; acute apically, heavily setose in posterior half (Fig. 6A). Valve broadly triangular (Fig. 6E). Subgenital plates elongate, broad basally, tapered apically with 7–8 submarginal setae except in apical half (Fig. 6E). Connective “Y”-shaped with stem short (Fig. 6C). Style with pointed apophysis, digitate, preapical lobe moderately developed (Fig. 6B). Aedeagus with finger-like dorsal apodeme (Fig. 6G). Aedeagal shaft long, straight with few serrations above median length dorsally; pair of leaf-like dorsally serrated apical processes, directed cephalad (Figure 8F–G); gonopore apical. Type material: Holotype: ♂, Pakistan, Punjab Prov., Faisalabad, Mianwali City, 24 June 2016, Coll. Hassan Naveed. Paratypes: 2♂, 2♀, same data as holotype. Remarks: This species is similar to H. morrisoni Rao & Ramakrishnan, 1990 in having the pygofer lobe acute apically and the leaf-like aedeagal processes directed cephalad. But it differs in having the much straighter aedeagal shaft without median constriction and few serrations above median length. Male genitalia are also much closer to H. umballaensis Distant, 1908 but the pygofer lobe is acute in this new species and aedeagal shaft is without apical constriction. Etymology: The species epithet refers to the straight aedeagal shaft without constriction.Published as part of Naveed, Hassan & Zhang, Yalin, 2018, Review of the grass feeding leafhopper genus Hecalus Stål (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae) with description of four new species from Pakistan, pp. 580-590 in Zootaxa 4415 (3) on pages 587-588, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4415.3.10, http://zenodo.org/record/124203

Type material: Holotype: ♂, PAKISTAN, Punjab, Murree Hills, 12 July 2016, Coll. Hassan Naveed. Paratypes: 18♂, Jammu & Kashmir, Neelum Valley, 9 June 2016. Remarks: This species closely resembles J. neelumensis but can be distinguished by the unevenly distributed distal teeth on the anal tube appendage and the much shorter and broader dorsal connective. Etymology: The species epithet “ truncata ” is based on the truncate style apophysis.Published as part of Naveed, Hassan & Zhang, Yalin, 2018, Review of the genus Jilinga Ghauri (Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae: Paralimnini) in Pakistan with description of two new species, pp. 568-576 in Zootaxa 4457 (4) on pages 571-573, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4457.4.6, http://zenodo.org/record/145806
