The Fulgorinae[1] are a sub-family of insects in the Auchenorrhyncha: which include the spectacular "lantern-bugs" and allied insects.
Tribes and genera[edit]
Nine genera are currently listed by the NCBI, but molecular studies question the placement of genera in the Zannini, even questioning whether they belong to the family Fulgoridae.[2] The Hemiptera database[3] currently (August 2023) currently places all genera in this subfamily in two tribes:
Fulgorini[edit]
Auth.: Latreille, 1807 (central and southern America)
- subtribe Fulgorina Latreille, 1807
- Cathedra Kirkaldy, 1903 monotypic: Cathedra serrata
- Diareusa Walker, 1858
- Fulgora Linné, 1767 (type genus)
- Phrictus Spinola, 1839
- subtribe Odontopterina Metcalf, 1938
- Aphrodisias Kirkaldy, 1906
- Odontoptera Carreno, 1841
Pyropsini[edit]
Auth.: Haupt, 1929 (tropical Asia) (Synonym: Laternariini Distant, 1906 - unavailable, suppressed by ICZN ruling)
- Datua Schmidt, 1911
- Hariola Stål, 1863
- Pyrops Spinola, 1839 (previously Laternaria, the genus may be incertae sedis by some authorities)
- Saiva Distant, 1906
