CICADELLINAE: PART 2. NEW WORLD CICADELLINI “55 
posteriorly nearly as far as apex of connective, preapical lobe prominent, apex 
narrowly truncate. Aedeagus digitate, without processes, dorsal margin not 
strongly convex. Paraphyses with long slender acute rami arising from a short 
transverse basal piece. 
Female abdominal sternum VII moderately produced, broadly convex at 
apex. Ovipositor with dorsal teeth on second valvula throughout portion 
beyond basal curvature, the teeth widely spaced near base, apex acute (entire 
valvula, not illustrated, similar to that of Jsogonalia sexlineata (Signoret) (fig. 
662p, q)). Pygofer narrowly rounded apically, with a broad group of macro- 
setae of varied sizes parallel to posteroventral margin. 
Cinerogonalia is known only from the type-species, small, broad-headed 
leafhoppers irrorate with brown, known only from Colombia and Venezuela. 
The male genitalia are similar to those found in Sibovia China and Cyclogonia 
Melichar, but the female structures are similar to Jsogonalia, new genus, and 
some genera related to it (Campecha Melichar, and Graphocephala Van Duzee), 
and to Apogonalia Evans. 
My identification of the type-species rests on a study of the type and a 
topotypic male paratype (fig. 618) from Carnegie Museum. 
I have seen specimens of C. lituriceps from Venezuela collected on Thymus 
vulgaris L., and on cotton.
