Recent survey work in Costa Rica has resulted in the discovery of a wide variety of undescribed species of planthoppers in the families Derbidae and Cixiidae. During a light trapping event in the Los Angeles cloud forest, a large planthopper was collected and determined to belong to the genus Myconus in the family Achilidae. Herein, the novel taxon is described with accompanying molecular data for the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene, 18S rRNA gene, and histone 3 (H3) gene and an updated key for the New World Myconus is provided.
最近在哥斯达黎加的调查工作发现了弹尾目和沫蝉科的大量未描述的新种。在洛杉矶云雾森林的灯光诱捕事件中,收集到了一种大型的叶蝉,并确定属于叶蝉科的 Myconus 属。本文描述了一个新的分类单元,并附有细胞色素 c 氧化酶亚基 I(COI)基因、18S rRNA 基因和组蛋白 3(H3)基因的分子数据,并提供了更新的新世界 Myconus 关键信息。
