1.3. Gignotettix Hancock, 1909 View in CoL
Gignotettix Hancock, 1909: 397, 1915: 62 View in CoL , Sandrasagara 1950: 136, Liang 1990: 213, Blackith 1992: 81, Yin et al. 1996: 872, Otte 1997: 21.
Type species. Gignotettix burri Hancock, 1909 View in CoL , by original monotypy.
Distribution and composition. Monotypic genus (including only G. burri ) inhabiting the Central province of Sri Lanka (Pundaluoya and Ohiya).
Notes. The genus Gignotettix is one of the least studied Tetrigidae genera. Only a few specimens of its only species are known and its taxonomic position is thus not assessable. Tumbrinck doubts that this genus represents a synonym of Cladonotella Hancock, 1909 ( Cigliano et al. 2020: scrutiny Tumbrinck 2016 under Gignotettix burri ). We would not say that G. burri should be assigned to Cladonotella , but its position definitely requires attention in future.
