Hemiptera Tingidae Tinginae Litadeini

Abstract

The New Caledonian endemic genus Cephalidiosus Guilbert, 1999, can be recognized among the genera of the tribe Litadeini by its greatly expanded, multiseriate costal area; the presence of 4-5 cephalic spines; first antennal segment 3-4 times as long as the second one; a simple uninflated collar; and narrow, at best uniseriate, paranota (Froeschner 2001).
