Distribution.
India
:
Tamil Nadu

Psylla hyalina
;
Kandasamy 1986
, as
Psylla hyalina
);
Uttarakhand
(
Mathur 1975
), as
Psylla hyalina
).
Host plant.
Albizia procera
(Fabaceae)
.
Mathur (1975)
and
Kandasamy (1986)
listed also adult specimens from
Cassia siamea

Comments.
Psylla hyalina
Mathur, 1975
belongs to the genus
Yangus
Fang, 1990
(
Psyllidae
,
Aphalaroidinae
). We propose the following new combination:
Yangus hyalinus
(
Mathur, 1975
)
,
comb. nov.
from
Psylla
.
Y. hyalinus
and
Yangus chiasiensis
Fang, 1990
from Taiwan (
Fang 1990
) are morphologically identical and share the same host plant. They are synonymised here as
Yangus hyalinus
(
Mathur, 1975
)
=
Yangus chiasiensis
Fang, 1990
,
