CICADELLINAE: PART 2. NEW WORLD CICADELLINI 361 
and with a posterior lobe extending along claval suture; corium with four 
small red spots in an oblique line parallel to claval suture and with three red 
spots along costal margin, the middle one bilobed at its mesal extremity, 
hyaline areas as in L. sannionis, n. sp. (above); face, propleura, and legs, 
yellow. 
Holotype male and one additional male and one female, ‘‘Huichichuayan”’, 
[Huichapan?] Mexico, September 25, 1938 (L. J. Lipovsky) (NCS). A series 
of specimens of both sexes from Tamazunchale, Mexico, and ‘‘Xaxha” 
(Yaxja) Guatemala (OSU); from Chiapas, Mexico (UCAL); from Vera Cruz, 
Mexico (USNM); Oaxaca, Mexico (AMNH); and “‘Surrubres’”’, Costa Rica 
(MMB). Holotype on indefinite loan to USNM. 
L. lentiginosa, n. sp., can be distinguished from other species in the genus by 
the form of the aedeagus. The species has color characters similar to those of 
L. mara, n. sp., but the genitalia are quite distinct. Specimens of lentiginosa are 
also colored as in L. dependens, n. sp., and can be distinguished from the latter 
only by the male genitalia.

FIGURE 289, PAGE 362 
Length of male 6.2-6.9 mm, of female 6.9-7.4 mm. Head with median 
length of crown from two-thirds to nine-tenths interocular width and from 
slightly less than four-tenths to more than five-tenths transocular width; 
clypeus slightly flattened medially in its dorsal half, muscle impressions not 
very distinct. Male pygofer well produced, apical margin strongly convex, 
without processes, with a diagonal group of mixed long and short macrosetae 
parallel to posterior and posteroventral margins; style extending posteriorly 
approximately as far as apex of connective which is Y-shaped with arms wide- 
ly divergent; aedeagus with shaft narrow, arched posteroventrally, with ven- 
tral margin regularly concave, with a basiventral elongate arcuate process, 
usually (holotype) bearing a short protrusion on its posterior margin, oc- 
casionally broadened before apex which is acute; paraphyses long-stalked, 
rami elongate, slender and subparallel. 
Color as in L. lentiginosa, n. sp. (above). 
Holotype male, ‘““Columbia’’, British Honduras, April, 1932 (J. J. White), 
and five males and foyr females, same data (NCS). Additional male 
specimens, Morales, Guatemala (NCS); from La Ceiba, Honduras; Punta 
Gorda, Honduras; Cayuga, Guatemala; ‘Vera Paz”’, Guatemala (on cacao); 
from banana cargo from Guatemala, May 19, 1935 (USNM); from San José, 
Costa Rica (ZIMH) and Limon Province, Costa Rica (SPBF). Holotype on 
indefinite loan to USNM. 
Although I have associated a number of females with the males above, I 
cannot separate females of L. dependens, n. sp., from those of L. lentiginosa. All 
of the above distribution records are based on dissected males. L. dependens 
males can be separated readily from other species in the genus by the form of 
basiventral process of the aedeagus. The new species is closely related to 
lentiginosa, and to L. arcuata, n. sp., described below.
