Revision of the New World leafhopper tribe Faltalini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae) and the evolution of brachyptery Author Zahniser, James N. text Zootaxa 2021 2021-04-13 4954 1 1 160 journal article 7262 10.11646/zootaxa.4954.1.1 64eab05b-4539-4be2-bb06-7af4369949e0 1175-5326 4690775 A8D2AA60-562C-4F98-8000-D792F1E40C87 Kramerana hypera Blocker & Fang ( Figs. 49A 3 , 49B 3 , 51H 1 , 53 ) Kramerana hypera Blocker & Fang, 1992: 344–345 [original description, illustration, morphology]; Zahniser & Webb, 2004: 671 [morphology]; Zanol, 2008: 45 [catalogue]; Zahniser, 2007 [online catalogue]; Freytag & Gaiani, 2017 [online catalogue] Diagnosis. K. hypera can be distinguished from other species in the genus by its size (male 4.0 mm), aedeagus with broad base and with narrow shaft arising posterodorsally from base, pygofer with distinct posteroventral tooth, aedeagus apex with short flanges arising from posterior side or laterally, aedeagus posteroventral corner not distinctly angled or projecting and with irregular teeth, ventral margin of aedeagus distinctly constricted caudad of anteroventral corner, and gonopore subapical on anterior side. Material examined. Holotype ♂ examined [ SEMC ]. Distribution. K. hypera is known from Peru ( Junín Dept.), collected at 3260m elevation. Remarks. K. hypera is very similar to K. junina , but K. hypera is larger in size and possesses some differences in the male genitalia. The aedeagus of the holotype of K. hypera ( Fig. 51H 1 ) was imaged directly next to that of a specimen of K. junina ( Fig. 51H 2 ), showing the differences between the two—that of K. hypera larger in size, with ventral margin more distinctly emarginate (not well-figured by Blocker & Fang 1992 ), and posteroventral margin with minute teeth. Also, as noted by Zahniser & Webb (2004) , the style apophysis of K. hypera is longer, extending well beyond the apex of the connective stem.
