Cicadidae
Cicadidae, the true cicadas, is the largest family of cicadas, with more than 3,200 species worldwide. The oldest known definitive fossils are from the Paleocene, a nymph from the Cretaceous Burmese amber has been attributed to the family, but could also belong to the Tettigarctidae. Description Cicadas are large insects characterized by their membranous wings, triangular-formation of three ocelli on the top of their heads, and their short, bristle-like antennae. Life cycle Cicadas are generally separated into two categories based on their adult emergence pattern. Annual cicadas remain underground as nymphs for two or more years and the population is not locally synchronized in its development, so that some adults mature each year or in most years. Periodical cicadas also have multiple-year life cycles but emerge in synchrony or near synchrony in any one location and are absent as adults in the intervening years.

Tibicininae
Tibicininae is a subfamily of cicadas in the family Cicadidae. There are 5 tribes and at least 140 described species in Tibicininae. They are found in the Neotropics, the Nearctic, and the Palearctic. Tibicininae underwent a major revision in 2005, and it was proposed to rename the subfamily Tettigadinae in order to avoid confusion due to the restructuring of the subfamily. This proposal was not universally accepted, and no official appeal was made for the name change. Even so, Tettigadinae is sometimes used as a name for this subfamily. Genera These 23 genera belong to the subfamily Tibicininae: * '' Acuticephala'' Torres, 1958 * '' Alarcta'' Torres, 1958 * '' Babras'' Jacobi, 1907 * '' Calliopsida'' Torres, 1958 * '' Chilecicada'' Sanborn, 2014 * '' Chonosia'' Distant, 1905 * ''Clidophleps'' Van Duzee, 1915 * '' Coata'' Distant, 1906 * '' Mendozana'' Distant, 1906 * '' Neoplatypedia'' Davis, 1920 * ''Okanagana'' Distant, 1905 * ''Okanagodes'' Davis, 1919 * '' Paharia'' Dista ...
