Onoralna falcata Boulard 1996: 4 View in CoL . (Rte Quito-Pto Quito, Km 41, 2380 m, western Ecuador)

REMARKS.—The large fore wings large (1.75x body length) with maculate spots of the fore wings along with the series of spots on the ambient vein of the fore wings and hind wings quickly separate the species from other Ecuadorian cicadas. Combined with the rounded lateral pronotum, thin body with parallel sides, mesonotal stridulatory apparatus, recurved timbal cover and timbal without ribs, the species is relatively easy to distinguish ( Sanborn 2018a).

DISTRIBUTION.—The species is known only from Ecuador (Sanborn 2013; 2018a). The type locality is in Pichincha province.
