Cicadinae

The Cicadinae are a subfamily of cicadas, containing the translucent cicadas. They are robust cicadas and many have gaudy colors, but they generally lack the butterfly-like opaque wing markings found in many species of the related Tibiceninae.

Systematics

This large subfamily is here divided into tribes. Other schemes exist, which usually have a coarser subdivision. Some, however, merge the Tibiceninae here whole or partly. The genera given below were substantially revised 2010 through 2018 due to additional morphological and molecular phylogenetic analysis.

The following tribes belong to the subfamily Cicadinae:

# Arenopsaltriini Moulds, 2018
# Burbungini Moulds, 2005
# Cicadatrini Distant, 1905
# Cicadini Latreille, 1802
# Cicadmalleuini Boulard & Puissant, 2013
# Cosmopsaltriini Kato, 1932
# Cryptotympanini Handlirsch, 1925
# Cyclochilini Distant, 1904
# Distantadini Orian, 1963
# Dundubiini Atkinson, 1886
# Durangonini Moulds & Marshall, 2018
# Fidicinini Distant, 1905

# Jassopsaltriini Moulds, 2005
# Lahugadini Distant 1905
# Leptopsaltriini Moulton, J.C., 1923
# Macrotristriini Moulds, 2018
# Oncotympanini Ishihara, 1961
# Orapini Boulard, 1985
# Platypleurini Schmidt, 1918
# Plautillini Distant, 1905
# Polyneurini Amyot & Audinet-Serville, 1843
# Psaltodini Moulds, 2018
# Psithyristriini Distant, 1905
# Sinosenini Boulard, 1975
# Sonatini Lee 2010
## genus ''Hyalessa'' China, 1925
# Talcopsaltriini Moulds, 2008
# Tamasini Moulds, 2005
# Thophini Distant, 1904
# Tosenini Amyot & Serville, 1843
# Zammarini Distant, 1905

The names Platypleurini Schmidt, 1918 and Hamzini Distant 1905 refer to the same tribe. The question of name priority was submitted to the ICZN for resolution in 2018 (case 3761). The tribe Oncotympanini was reduced to subtribe level and transferred to Cicadini in 2010, but was later returned to tribe status.
