Cicadatra persica (Kirkaldy, 1909) View in CoL ( Figs 64 View FIGURES 61–68 and 72 View FIGURES 69–75 )

Recorded damage and economic importance in the orchards of Iran: Not recorded.

Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: A destructive pest in the apple orchards of Syria ( Dardar et al. 2012).

Recorded distribution in Iran: Northwest, west, southwest, centre and southeast.

Conclusion: In spite of the wide distribution of the species in Iran, large populations and the activity of species as pest have never been recorded.
