CICADELLINAE: PART 2. NEW WORLD CICADELLINI 1071 
Dorsal wall of genital chamber without sclerites. Ovipositor very long, ex- 
ceeding apex of pygofer; second valvulae each broadened beyond basal curva- 
ture, with small widely spaced quadrate primary teeth at base of broad por- 
tion, becoming more closely spaced and broader and with minute secondary 
denticles nearer apex, with anteapical dorsal denticles, apex acute. Pygofer 
with macrosetae irregularly arranged on apical half. 
Species of Catagonalia Evans are predominantly green, occasionally suffused 
with blue, with the crown orange and bearing markings which are variable 
interspecifically. 
The range of Catagonalia Evans is from Colombia to Bolivia and Brazil. 
Catagonalia Evans is similar in appearance, and in the form of the second 
valvulae of the ovipositor, to Lautereria, new genus, and to Tantogonalia, new 
genus. Catagonalia and Tantogonalia females lack the lobe of the first valvifer of 
the ovipositor present in Lautereria; differences in males are discussed in the 
treatment of Tantogonalia. 
My interpretation of Cicadella conjunctula Osborn is based on a female speci- 
men from Chapada, Brazil, labeled ““Type”’, in the Carnegie Museum. I have 
identified Tettigonia lunata Signoret in the sense of Signoret’s original illustra- 
tion (1854b, pl. 11, fig. 13). This agrees with the head markings of the only 
specimen from the Signoret collection in NMV, a specimen which lacks both 
pairs of wings, the abdomen, and the hindlegs (I did not select it as lectotype 
in the hope that a better specimen may be found in the Spinola collection). In 
a specimen from Yurac, Peru, the most apical of the aedeagal processes is not 
branched as in the specimen illustrated here (Fig. 869g). My interpretation of 
Tettigoniella coronula Jacobi is based on the male lectotype in SMT.
