REMARKS. All extant cicadas are members of the family Cicadidae except the two Australian species of Tettigarcta White, 1845 . The Cicadidae are distinguished from the Tettigarctidae Distant, 1905f by a pronotum that is smaller than the mesonotum, the presence of a distinctive cruciform elevation, fused fore wing anal veins 2 and 3, males generally possess timbal organs and an abdominal resonating chamber, tympana are present in both sexes, male sternite VII is shielded ventrally by the genitalia, and the male pygofer has basal lobes ( Moulds 2005).
