摘要
The tube-making spittlebug genus Machaerota Burmeister from China is reviewed and a new species,Machaerota liangi sp.nov.from Yunnan,is described.This new species is characterized by having black body,head with postclypeus broadly rounded,scutellar process slightly longer than scutellum proper,weakly arched,apically reaching level of tegminal apices,and aedeagal shaft with conspicuous extension subapically on anterior margin.A key to the species from China is provided.
对中国棘沫蝉属Machaerota Burmeister作了综述,并记述采自云南的1新种:梁氏棘沫蝉Machaerota liangi sp.nov.。本新种体黑色,头部额部圆弧状突出,小盾片突起长于小盾片、略弧形弯曲、端部伸达翅端部,阳茎端部前缘显著突出,可与其它种类区分。文中提供了中国种类分种检索表。
