Tribe i. Cixiini. 



Often 3 ocelli. Tegmina not reticulate apically, the anal vein 

 runs into the commissure. 



Tribe 2. Achilini. 



Doubtfully distinct from Cixiini and only retained for con- 

 venience. Two ocelli always ; the anal vein runs into the apex 

 of the clavus. Chroncba, Kirbyaiia and Mclandcva placed in the 

 'Cixiinae' bv Distant, do not agree with his characters, but be- 

 long here. Kiiinara and ParuzcUo perliaps belong here. 



Tribe 3. Dictyophorini. 



Not easily distinguished from the preceding by words, but of 

 different habitus. Tegmina usually reticulate apically. 



Aiigila (placed by Distant in the Issinae), Lcitsaha and Moiiof^sis 

 (placed by Distant in the Tropiduchinae) belong here. In 

 Lciisaha. the anal vein runs into the apex of the clavus. 



Subfam. 2. Fulgorinae. 



Anal area of wings reticulate. Tribes Fulgorini, Aphanini and 

 Omalocephalini. 



Fam. 5. Asiracidae. 



Hind tibiae with a mobile spur ; antennal sensory lobes ab- 

 sent, bristle segmented; costal vein not developed, clavus not 

 granulate. 



Fam. 6. Derbidae. 



Clavus granulate (except in a few forms) ; anal area of wings 

 (in most forms) with a stridulatory area. Hind tibiae without 

 a mobile spur. Antennae often very remarkable, bristle not 

 segmented. Crystal vein not developed. Last segment of labium 

 rarely otherwise than annuliform. 



Vckuiifa, placed by Distant in the Achilinae, is a Derbid. 



"Hicracia" icalkcri Sign., is very evidently not a Hicrana at 

 all. I am of the opinion that it forms a group near there some- 

 what intermediate between Issinae and Tropiduchinae, together 

 with Kama, Arnforfas, Hicracia, Grynia, as well as Flavina and 

 Nilalohifa, (the two latter placed by Distant in the Issinae) and 

 perhaps Padanda (of Distant's Lophopidae !). Signoret's species 

 forms the new genus Dolia, distinguished from Hicracia by the
