Acanthoventris igneus Ruschel (in Ruschel et al.), 2023

Acanthoventris igneus Ruschel (in Ruschel et al.) 2023: 60 (Alto Paraiso de Goiás, Goiás, Brazil).

Remarks. This species was reported to be restricted to the Chacoan dominion in the Cerrado province ( Ruschel et al. 2023). The additional records appear to follow the dominion northeasterly and southwesterly from the type locality. Acanthoventris igneus replaces Dorisiana drewseni in the cicada fauna of Paraguay as the specimens examined here are the same specimens referenced in Sanborn (2011b).

Distribution. The species was known previously only from the state of Goiás, Brazil ( Ruschel et al. 2023). The range is expanded here to include the states of Bahia and S ã o Paulo and the Distrito Federal, Brazil and southwestward into Paraguay.
