Former tribe of cicadas From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

Tibicenini is a former tribe name from the insect family Cicadidae (the true cicadas), based on the family group taxon established by Distant (1889).[1] As of 2021, the name became unavailable to zoological nomenclature due to the suppression of its type genus Tibicen Berthold, 1827 by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature.[2] Cicada genera grouped at the tribe level with genus Lyristes (the current name for the former genus Tibicen) are generally referenced under the name Cryptotympanini Handlirsch, 1925.[3]
