"Huechysaria" (= Huechysini Distant, 1905) was proposed by Distant (1905b) with Huechys Amyot & Audinet-Serville, 1843 as the type genus mainly by the opaque or semiopaque wings. However, the molecular phylogenetic study by Marshall et al . (2015) suggests that Huechys should be placed within Cicadettini . This suggested placement is well supported morphologically by the presence of a pair of flat upper lobes, a welldeveloped dorsal beak, a duck-bill-shaped median lobe of uncus, and a pair of clasper-like processes, which are commonly seen in the male genitalia of Huechys as well as that of the type genus of Cicadettini , Cicadetta Kolenati, 1857 . Huechys also has the following characteristics, which were listed as distinguishing characters of Cicadettini by Moulds (2005) : pygofer upper lobes flat; and pseudoparameres present (see Fig. 4 ). Here, Huechysini syn. nov. is synonymized with Cicadettini . Moulds (2005) also proposed as a diagnostic character for Cicadettini the timbals not extending ventrally beyond the wing bases although he later found the opposite character-state in Uradolichos Moulds, 2012 , which he placed in Cicadettini . Because the timbals slightly extend below the wing bases ventrally in specimens of Huechys parvula Haupt, 1924 listed below and some examined specimens of Kosemia Matsumura, 1927 and Tettigetta Kolenati, 1857 in the first author's care, this character may have to be excluded from the characters for diagnosing Cicadettini .
