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 Dorisiana metcalfi Sanborn & Heath, 2014 Cicada viridis Olivier 1790: 754 . (Surinam) Dorisiana metcalfi Sanborn & Heath 2014 nom. nov. pro Cicada viridis Olivier, 1790 nec Cicada viridis Linnaeus, 1758: 60 . Remarks. Metcalf (1952) previously synonymized the species with Dorisiana semilata ( Walker, 1850 ) . However, the taxon represented by Cicada viridis Olivier, 1790 is distinct from D. semilata in genitalia and other morphological characteristics & Sanborn & Heath (2014) provided Dorisiana metcalfi nom. nov. as a replacement name for the taxon represented by Cicada viridis Olivier, 1790 . Specimens from Surinam are required to be able to determine if D. metcalfi and D. semilata are in fact synonyms. The general features and coloration of this species may have meant it was mistaken for G. bogotana . Dorisiana metcalfi is about the same size and has a very similar morphology to G. bogotana . There are minor coloration differences between the species with the genitalia being the most reliable way to distinguish the species. Both species have the same ground color, the head of G. bogotana has a few small piceous marks missing in D. metcalfi . The use of the taxon “ viridis ” has a complex and varied application (see Sanborn & Heath 2014 ). It is highly probable that Wolda (1977 ; 1983b ) was actually collecting G. bogotana . As described above, the specimens Wolda identified as D. viridis are considered to be G. bogotana and represent the only reference to the species in Panama. As a result, D. metcalfi is removed from the cicada fauna of Panama. Distribution. The species has been reported from Argentina , Bolivia , Brazil , Colombia , Ecuador , Paraguay , Peru , Surinam , and Venezuela ( Metcalf 1963a ; Dorval et al. 2011 ; Sanborn 2011b ; 2013 ; Santos-Cividanes et al. 2013 ; Sanborn & Heath 2014 ).
