Cicadini Latreille, 1802
†
Cicada heeri
nom.nov.
=
Cicada bifasciata
Heer, 1853b: 90
(from Miocene) primary homonym of
Planaphrodes bifasciata
(
Linnaeus, 1758a: 436
)
(original genus
Cicada
; widespread Palaearctic species)
Etymology:
The species is named in honor of Oswald Heer (1809–1883), Swiss geologist and naturalist.
Notes:
This homonymy is covered by Article 23.9.5 of the Code. See also notes on
Cercopis giebeli
nom.nov.
Since
Cicada bifasciata
Heer, 1853
is not a frequently used name, a new replacement name is proposed here.
