The cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) of Panama including the description of six new species, three new combinations, one new synonymy, and nine new records Author Sanborn, Allen F. text Zootaxa 2018 2018-10-04 4493 1 1 69 journal article 29291 10.11646/zootaxa.4493.1.1 ac55c1cd-0227-47c0-a130-15d18759b313 1175-5326 1445162 BA78044B-2C16-4F64-AA20-D1838D423CCC Carineta fasciculata ( Germar, 1821 ) Cicada fasciculata Germar 1821: 17 . ( São Paulo , Brazil ) Remarks. The species was reported at Boquete, Province of Chiriquí , at 1350 m altitude in remnant forest habitat by Wolda & Ramos (1992) . However, these are considered misidentifications of Carineta maculosa . Torres (1948) identified the species illustrated as C. fasciculata in Jacobi (1907) as C. maculosa . Torres (1948) further corrected identifications of examples of northern Carineta species as his new species. Martinelli & Zucchi (1997) illustrate the distribution of C. fasciculata . The species appears to be restricted to grassland, savannah, open forest habitats, xeric shrublands and agricultural areas (as defined by Leeuwen et al. 2013 ) of eastern and southern Brazil , northeastern Argentina , eastern Paraguay and northeastern Bolivia ( Martinelli & Zucchi 1997 ). The reference to Colombia ( Apolinar 1946 ; Jacobi 1907 ) and Ecuador ( Jacobi 1907 ) were made before Torres (1948) described his species and Jacobi was shown by Torres to confuse the taxa as Jacobi illustrated the taxon he considered C. fasciculata . The reference in Wolda & Ramos (1992) to C. fasciculata was collected at the same locality as the specimen of C. maculosa reported in the paper. Based on these data, the records of C. fasciculata in Panama are considered C. maculosa and C. fasciulata is removed from the cicada fauna of Panama . Distribution. The species has been reported from Argentina , Bolivia , Brazil , Colombia , Ecuador , Panama , and Paraguay ( Metcalf 1963c ; Duffels & van der Laan 1985 ; Maccagnan & Martinelli 2011 ; Sanborn 2011b ; 2013 ). The previous records in Colombia , Ecuador and Panama are considered misidentifications of Carineta maculosa as the species appears to be distributed in southern and eastern South America as described above.
