Genus Antilliarus
Reclassification of the Planthopper Genus Melanoliarus Fennah, 1945 (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Cixiidae), primarily North of Mex By Hendrix, S.V. & Bartlett, C.R.
Zootaxa, 2025
ABSTRACT
The genus Melanoliarus Fennah is an amalgam of 79 of the approximately 100 species of American Pentastirini. Here we review Melanoliarus with emphasis on species occurring north of Mexico. Twelve new genera and two new subgenera are described based on genitalic and external morphological characters resulting in 52 new nomenclatural combinations, segregated from Melanoliarus: Amiarus gen. nov., Amiarus (Umbrarus) subgen. nov., Antilliarus gen. nov., Bifoliarus gen. nov., Cilidius gen. nov., Galapagoliarus gen. nov., Lapsium gen. nov., Melanoliarus (Amplectiarus) subgen. nov., Oliaridellus gen. nov., Oliaridus gen. nov., Remotiarus gen. nov., Sonorium gen. nov., Vitroliarus gen. nov., and Xenoliarus gen. nov. Two species are transferred from Cyclopoliarus Fennah to Antilliarus gen. nov. Two species described from females are considered incertae sedis in Pentastirini. Cixius testaceus Walker is treated as a new junior synonym of Cixius vicarius Walker. A lectotype is designated for Oliarus cinereus. Cicada villosa Fabricius is transferred to Pentastiridius Kirschbaum. The genus Melanoliarus has been redefined to include six species that are mostly endemic to the Antillean region. A key is provided for the genera and subgenera of American Pentastirini. With these changes, 101 species of Pentastirini are reported from the Americas in 20 genera.

Abstract:
This study completes the first taxonomic revision of the planthopper family Cixiidae in continental United States. Thirteen genera and 172 species are recognized. A key to all 13 genera is presented.
Four genera, Cixius Latreille, Myndus Stål, Oecleus Stål, and Oliarus Stål, were recently revised by the author, and appropriate references are made to these other studies. Species of the remaining 9 genera are treated here.

During his work in the United States National Museum and other American Institutions the author had the opportunity to study types of some species and bibliography related to others which must receive corrections. This paper deals with a portion of these corrections related to the fauna of the Western Hemisphere as well
