- Description
- The cicada genus Stagira Stål 1861 is redescribed and re-vised. S. sanguinea Distant 1920 n. syn. and S. rufi-costata Distant 1920 n. syn. are synonymized with S. seg-mentaria Karsch ! 890, while S. aethlius (Walker 1850) n. stat. and S. acrida (Walker 1850) n. stat. are removed from the synonymy of S. simplex (Germar 1834) and restored to specific status. An additional 32 new species are described and a key is provided to the males of the genus. Stagira is endemic to the eastern tropical transitional area of south-ern Africa, and has occupied a variety of habitats, from xe-ric scrub to grassland savanna to forest. It forms a group with the South African genera Xosopsaltria Kirkaldy 1904, Tettigomyia Amyot and Serville 1843 and Bavea Distant 1905.
