Since I have published "Die Cicadinen Japans" in the "Annotationes Zool- 

 ogicae Japonensis "Vol. VI, Part 2, 1907, and some new species in my "Thousand 

 Illustrated Insects of Japan" (Nippon Senchü-zukai), Additamenta, Vol. i, 1913, 

 nothing seems to have been published in regard to the Japanese nor Formosan 

 Cicadidae. In the present paper, I shall describe some new .species and genera 

 and enumerate at the same time all the species already knovvn from our faunal 

 regions. 



According to my investigation, we have in Japan and Formosa 59 species 

 under 28 genera, of which 14 species and 6 genera are new.

Subfam. Cicadinae 



Division Polyneuraria.
