[Tingiopsis Bekker-Migdisova (1953, p. 461, fig.). Family Cercopidae. 



Note: Bekker-Migdisova wrongly founded Tingiopsis as a genus of 

 Tingidae. The fossil species Tingiopsis reticulata is represented 

 only by a forewing. Evans (1957, p. 289, fig. 6e) is of the opinion 

 that the wing is probably that of a homopteron and quite possibly 

 that of a cercopid.]
