Abstract

Many tomaspidine froghoppers are pests of crops in South America, and their current taxonomic position frequently does not reflect their true affinities. In this second revisionary contribution, certain generic features of Tiodus, Iphirhina, Tunaima and Urubaxia are described and compared, and 2 species are transferred to Maxantonia, 3 to Tunaima, 1 to Kanaima, 1 to Prosapia and 5 to Mahanarva. Huaina gen. n., Choconta gen. n. and Tiodus rufescens sp. n. are described. Monecphora fortunata Lall. is suppressed under Kanaima vittata (Wlk.), and Maxantonia scita (Wlk.) is recalled from synonymy with Monecphora quadrifasciata (Lep. & Serv.).
