Cyrta longwanshensis Li & Zhang, comb. n.
No full textCyrta longwanshensis (Li & Zhang) comb. n. Placidus longwanshensis Li & Zhang, 2006: 155, Figs 18–25 Remarks. According to the description and the figures of Li & Zhang (2006), this species is similar to C. brunnea (Kuoh), but can be distinguished from the latter by the colour pattern of the head and the shape of aedeagus. However, the aedeagus figured by Li & Zhang (2006) seems to be damaged.Published as part of Wei, Cong & Zhang, Yalin, 2008, The identity of the oriental leafhopper genera Cyrta Melichar and Placidus Distant (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Stegelytrinae), with description of a new genus, pp. 1-27 in Zootaxa 1793 on page 6, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18257

From these species it can be distinguished by the following combination of characters: (1) tip of embolus as wide as the base in ventral view (vs. gradually narrowed in <i>P. contentio</i> and <i>P. amelia</i>); (2) RTA with three apices (vs. only two in <i>P. contentio</i> and <i>P. amelia</i>). Females (Figs 5, 6) of this new species can be distinguished from all other congeners by the combination of following epigynum characters: (1) lateral lobes fused along median line in ventral view; (2) anterior internal duct system twisted into heart-shaped loops.</p> <p> <b>Description.
