An Identification key to the species of Auchenorrhyncha of Iranian fauna recorded as pests in orchards and a review on the pest status of the species Author Mozaffarian, Fariba text Zootaxa 2018 4420 4 475 501 journal article 29159 10.11646/zootaxa.4420.4.2 6c0c4a13-180c-43db-b19e-f828948b3224 1175-5326 1455385 A7D21075-9BFE-4BED-9663-1E18BE4226BC Chloropsalta smaragdula Haupt, 1920 ( Figs 62 and 70 ) Recorded damage and economic importance in the orchards of Iran : Considering two species ( Cicadatra alhageos and Chloropsalta ochreata ) as “grape cicadas" in Iran , Chloropsalta smaragdula was introduced as the third species of grape cicada by Aghagoli Marzijarani et al . (2013) . There isn’t any record on the injury level caused by this species. Recorded damage in the orchards of other parts of the world: Not recorded. Recorded distribution in Iran: Generally distributed. Conclusion: Due to the extreme similarity of the habitus of the three cicadas in vineyards of Iran ( Cicadatra alhageos , Chloropsalta ochreata and Chloropsalta smaragdula ), it is quite necessary to determine the damage level caused by the species after the correct identification.
