Abstract
Four species in four genera of Dictyopharidae (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha) are recorded from Nepal, including Dictyohimalaya nepalensis Song & Liang, gen. & sp. nov. which is described and illustrated herein, Orthopagus lunulifer Uhler, 1897, Raivuna sp., and Tenguna medogensis Song & Liang, 2007. An identification key to the species of Dictyopharidae currently known from Nepal is provided. The dictyopharid fauna of the country remains poorly studied and further efforts are required to discover its real diversity.
