CICADELLINAE: PART 2, NEW WORLD CICADELLINI 997 
Head moderately produced, with anterior margin broadly rounded in dorsal 
view, median length of crown varying from approximately three-fourths to 
slightly less than nine-tenths interocular width and from slightly less than 
one-half to slightly more than one-half transocular width, without a carina at 
transition from crown to face, ocelli located on a line between anterior eye 
angles, each ocellus equidistant from adjacent anterior eye angle and median 
line of crown, crown with a transverse concavity before ocelli, without a me- 
dian fovea and without sculpturing or setae, lateral clypeal sutures extending 
onto crown and attaining ocelli; antennal ledges not protuberant, in lateral 
view with anterior margins oblique and convex; clypeus flattened medially, 
muscle impressions distinct, transclypeal suture obsolete at middle, clypellus 
not produced, contour of its lower portion slightly more nearly horizontal 
than profile of remainder of face. 
Thorax with pronotal width greater than transocular width of head, lateral 
margins parallel, dorsopleural carinae incomplete, disk without sculpture or 
pubescence; scutellum not transversely striate behind transverse sulcus. Fore- 
wing with membrane including inner and second apical cells and apical por- 
tions of third and fourth apical cells, extending proximad for a short distance 
along costal margin, veins not very distinct, evanescent in area of outer apical 
and outer anteapical cells, base of inner anteapical cell occurring more dis- 
tally than bases of outermost two anteapical cells, base of outermost apical 
cell more proximal than base of third, without an anteapical plexus of veins;

; 
forewings of female in rest position exceeding apex of ovipositor. Hindleg with 
femoral setal formula 2:1:1, length of first tarsomere slightly greater than 
combined length of two more distal tarsomeres, and with two parallel rows of 
small setae on plantar surface. 
Male genitalia: Pygofer not strongly produced, emarginate (or at least tend- 
ing to be bilobed) apically, with macrosetae arranged vertically and sub- 
marginally near apex, with a group of microsetae near ventral margin, pygofer 
processes absent. Plates elongate triangular, extending posteriorly beyond 
pygofer apex, each with uniseriate macrosetae and a large number of elongate 
fine microsetae at apex. Style extending posteriorly approximately as far as 
apex of connective, truncate apically, preapical lobe weak. Aedeagus with dor- 
sal apodemes elongate, shaft short, slender, without processes. Paraphyses 
symmetrical, with stalk short, rami elongate, bisinuate, the apical portion ex- 
tending dorsad, tapered, and acute, with a short median basal ramus be- 
tween the longer rami. 
Female abdominal sternum VII moderately produced, gradually narrowed 
to a short convex median lobe. Genital chamber without sclerites. Ovipositor 
with second valvulae each broadened beyond basal curvature, with sloping 
quadrate well spaced teeth throughout length and with anteapical dorsal den- 
ticles, apex acute. Pygofer obtusangular at apex, with sparse macrosetae 
parallel to posteroventral margin and anteapically. 
Crossogonalia hectica (Signoret), the only species in the genus, occurs in 
southeastern Brazil. A short series, in USNM, was collected on leaves of 
Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi by N.L.H. Krauss. Specimens of Crossogonalia hec- 
tica (Signoret) are similar in color, form, and size to species of Caldwellvola,
