New information on the distribution of cicads (Insecta, Homoptera, Cicadinea) in the Amur river basin (Khabarovskii krai) in specially protected areas

The distribution of cicadas in the Khabarovskii Krai has been studied very poorly, in contrast to the Amurskaya Oblast’ and Primorskii Krai. Ledra auditura (Ledridae) (also recorded from the eastern part of Zabaikal’skii Krai, the Argun River basin), Glossocratus foveolatus (Cicadellidae), Eoscartopsis assimilis (Cercopidae), Taihorina geisha (Machaerotidae), Cicadetta yezoensis (Cicadidae), Delphax maritima (Delphacidae), Mysidioides sapporensis, Losbanosia hibarensis, Zoraida albicans, Z. horishana (Derbidae), Cixidia ussuriensis, Kosalya fl avostrigata (Achilidae), Saigona ussuriensis (Dictyopharidae), Limois emelianovi (Fulgoridae) are recorded for the fi rst time in the River Amur basin from Khabarovskii Krai
