CICADELLINAE: PART 2. NEW WORLD CICADELLINI 71 
combined length of two more distal tarsomeres. Male pygofer narrowed postero- 
dorsally as in S. datercula (Breddin) (fig. 25c) and with similar chaetotaxy; plates 
as in /atercula but more nearly truncate apically; aedeagus much as in S. chola, n. 
sp. (fig. 34f), but with ventral margin of apex of shaft slightly convex; 
paraphyses absent. Female abdominal sternum VII gradually tapered from base 
to apex but with lateral margins very irregular (fig. 337); other genital characters 
as in S. halticula (Jacobi). 
Crown brown with a black spot laterad of each ocellus in male; pronotum sor- 
did yellow with median longitudinal stripe brownish-black, connected anteriorly 
with a narrow transverse concolorous marginal marking and a_ broader 
transverse concolorous marginal band extending between humeral margins in 
male, the anterior transverse marking absent in female and the posterior band in- 
terrupted on each side of median stripe; forewing brown with two coalesced 
diagonal lobate dull yellow spots on clavus and corium of each wing, the claval 
portions located opposite scutellar apex (wings at rest) and behind claval 
midlength, and a transverse similarly colored spot in corium across anteapical 
cells, female with smaller pale spots in intervening areas; male with clypeus and 
median portion of clypellus dull yellow, the clypeus with a median longitudinal 
black spot, remainder of face black; female with face sordid yellow except a black 
area on each side of clypellus and a narrow black portion of genal margin; pro- 
pleura of both sexes yellow; legs sordid tan with dark spots at midfemora, apices 
of tibiae and apices of tarsomeres. 
Holotype female and one male, Ecuador (MMB). 
S. coalita, n. sp., is readily separable from all other species in the genus by the 
distinctive abdominal sternum VII of the female and the distinctive coloration. 
Stehlikiana chola, NEW SPECIES 
FIGURE 34 
Length of male 8.3-8.8. Head with median length of crown varying from four- 
tenths to one-half transocular and from one-fourth to three-tenths transocular 
width, antennal ledges with or without a distinct carina, clypeus with muscle im- 
pressions distinct (as result of dark color), clypellus with profile of its lower por- 
tion more nearly horizontal than contour of remainder of face. Thorax with 
dorsopleural carinae incomplete; scutellum obscurely transversely striate behind 
transverse sulcus; forewing with membrane not clearly delimited, consisting at 
least of inner apical cell; length of first posterior tarsomere approximately equal 
to combined length of two more distal tarsomeres. Male pygofer with apical 
margin oblique and slightly convex, chaetotaxy as in S. ramirezi, n. sp., (above); 
plates with multiseriate setae; aedeagal shaft more slender (fig. 34f) than in 
other species in the genus; paraphyses reduced, much as in S. /atercula (Breddin) 
(fig. 25e). Female unknown. 
Crown pale brown with median spots at base and at apex and a spot on each 
side of apex covering muscle impressions, black; pronotum concolorous with 
crown, with a narrow transverse black band along anterior margin and oc- 
casionally interrupted medially, with a pair of faint discal brown spots;
