New Data on the Taxonomy and Distribution of Species of the Genus Macropsis (Homoptera, Cicadellidae) from the Russian Far East

摘要

A black-yellow form of Macropsis leporina has been found in a population from the southwestern part of Khabarovsk Territory. The conspecificity of green and black-yellow forms is substantiated by an analysis of their acoustic signals. An examination of the calling signals and structure of the apodemae of abdominal segment II in males of a Far Eastern poplar-dwelling species of the genus Macropsis has shown that these specimens belong to M. suspecta. Thus, the distribution range of this species includes not only eastern Kazakhstan and Siberia, but also the Russian Far East. However, sets and proportions of different color forms in the Siberian and Far Eastern populations differ. M. hinganensis Tishetshkin sp. n. from Khabarovsk Territory is described. The new species belongs to a group of willow-dwelling green forms but differs from other species in the shape of the apodema of abdominal tergite II, narrow aedeagal stem, well-developed dark pattern, and temporal pattern of the male calling signals.
