The generic diagnostic characters of Paracercopis (Hemiptera: Cercopoidea: Cercopidae) are redefined and the autapomorphies are proposed to support the monophyly of the genus. Scanning electron micrographs of antennal sensilla and sensilla on rostral apex of P. seminigra (Melichar, 1902) are provided for the first time. A checklist together with new distribution records and key to the species of the genus are provided. Host plant associations of Paracercopis species are reported for the first time. Paracercopis unicolor Liang, Zhang & Xiao, sp. nov., representing the seventh and largest species of the genus is described from Hubei Province in south central China.
重新定义了 Paracercopis(半翅目:叶蝉总科:叶蝉科)的通用诊断特征,并提出了独特的特征来支持该属的单系性。首次提供了 P. seminigra(Melichar,1902)触角感器和额顶感器的扫描电子显微镜图像。提供了一份清单,其中包括该属种的新分布记录和关键特征。首次报告了 Paracercopis 物种的寄主植物联系。Paracercopis unicolor Liang、Zhang & Xiao,sp. nov. 是该属的第七个也是最大的物种,来自中国中南部的湖北省。
