Remarks. Marshal et al. (2018) synonymized the Hyantiini into the Fidicinini along with the addition of several genera previously classified in a number of different tribes, including Diceroprocta Stål, 1870 (formerly in the Cryptotympanini Handlirsch, 1 925) of the Panamanian cicada fauna. Species of the tribe extend across the majority of the New World being absent only at the higher latitudes ( Metcalf 1963 s; Duffels & van der Laan 1985; Sanborn 2013; Sanborn & Heath 2012; 2014). The Fidicinini can be distinguished by the timbal covers which extend anteriorly exposing part of the timbal dorsally, the well developed and usually angulate opercula, the trapezoidal pronotum sometimes with the posterior angles lobately produced, and the distinctly elevated metasternum in the genera of the Fidicinini ( Distant 1905d; Boulard & Martinelli 1996). Species of the tribe are unique in their possession of large protruberances on the hind coxae, timbal covers that are reduced dorsally, a basal pygofer lobe that is never bifurcate, an uncus with a dorsal crest and ventral apophyses to restrain the aedeagus, and the lack of medially angulate lateral pronotal margins ( Marshall et al. 2018).
