Abstract
The South American planthopper genus Sparnia Stal has been revised. For the three species accommodated here, supplementary descriptions and detailed illustrations of the male genital structures are provided. The phylogenetic relationships of Sparnia to other genera of Delphacini and of the species within the genus are briefly discussed. At least for one species, S. praecellens, a potential role as a pest on sugar cane cannot be ruled out.
