Treatment

Orellana strepens ( Amyot & Audinet-Serville, 1843) View in CoL

Cicada tympanum Palisot de Beauvois 1813: 132 View in CoL , plate 20, Fig. 5 ( Saint-Domingue).

Zammara strepens Amyot & Audinet-Serville 1843: 469 View in CoL nomen novum pro Cicada tympanum Palisot de Beauvois, 1813 View in CoL nec Cicada tympanum Fabricius, 1803 View in CoL ( Brazil).

Remarks. As outlined above, specimens of Orellana strepens possess three segmented tarsi. The image of the specimen in Thouvenot (2007) is identical to the holotype of Zammara conflutrimacula n. sp. which has two segmented tarsi so it cannot be Orellana strepens . The species is removed from the French Guiana cicada fauna as the only previous record is now assigned to a different species.

Distribution. The species is found currently only in Brazil ( Goemans 2016).
