Abstract
Two new species of the leafhopper genus Calodia Nielson are described and illustrated: C. quadrimaculasp. nov. from Guizhou and Yunnan Provinces and C. zuoaesp. nov. from Yunnan Province, China. A checklist along with distribution and a key to species based on male genitalia of the genus Calodia from China are provided. Olidiana nigritibiana (Li), comb. nov. (earlier in the genus Calodia) is proposed. At present, this genus comprises 45 known species worldwide, of which 19 species are recorded from China.
Highlights
The genus Calodia (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Coelidiinae) was described by Nielson (1982) with Calodia multipectinata as the type species
Calodia is a relatively small genus of leafhoppers widely distributed throughout Asia and the Pacific (Indonesia and the Philippines)
Revised the classification of Coelidiini by reassigning the species to several new genera and dealt with six new species of Calodia, provided a revised key to species of Calodia and an updated catalogue of the species; of these, two species were from China
Summary
The genus Calodia (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae, Coelidiinae) was described by Nielson (1982) with Calodia multipectinata as the type species. Nielson (2015) resurrected Lodiana nigritibiana Li, 1988 and placed it in the genus Calodia. Two new species of Calodia from China are described together with a checklist to Chinese species of the genus and a key for their separation. Lodiana nigriti biana Li, 1988 was resurrected from synonymy and transferred to the genus Calodia by Nielson (2015: 13, 83), examination of the aedeagus of this species shows that it has one apical process which is bifurcate apically, a character of a number of species of Olidiana.
