REMARKS.— Goemans (2016) showed the record of Z. calochroma attributed to Ecuador by Goding (1925) was erroneous. Goding (1925) considered Z. calochroma and Z. smaragdula , a species that inhabits Ecuador (see above), as synonyms. The reference by Goding (1925) to Z. calochroma is considered a misidentification of Z. smaragdula and Z. calochroma is removed from the cicada fauna of Ecuador.

DISTRIBUTION.—The species has been reported from Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, and Venezuela ( Metcalf 1963a; Sanborn 2013; 2014a; 2018c; Goemans 2016). However, the records from Ecuador and Venezuela are considered erroneous identifications of Z. smaragdula Walker, 1858b ( Goemans 2016) .
