This work presents the first bioacoustical analysis of the complex calling songs of the North American desert cicada genus Cacama Distant, 1904 and treats all species known from the California fauna. Analysis of field recordings found three characters that vary significantly among species: syllable rate, the number of pulses per syllable, and the mean frequency during the main portion of an echeme. A bivariate plot of syllable rate and pulse number separates all California species. The results confirm that a fourth species, C. moorei Sanborn & M. Heath, 2011 belongs to the California state fauna. Courtship songs of C. moorei and C. valvata (Uhler, 1888) are described and the role of songs in mate recognition is discussed.","PeriodicalId":56098,"journal":{"name":"Pan-Pacific Entomologist","volume":"97 1","pages":"13 - 27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48519763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Neotropical genus Mimicoclytrina Bellamy, 2003 is revised and a new species from Venezuela, Mimicoclytrina bellamyi sp. nov., is described and compared to its most closely related species. A lectotype for Acherusia tristis Thomson, 1878 is designated, and the taxon is classified as a subspecies of M. piliventris (Saunders, 1869). Mimicoclytrina piliventris ssp. venezuelica (Cobos, 1980) is placed in synonymy with M. piliventris ssp. tristis (Thomson, 1878). The previously unavailable subgenus name Nelsonila Cobos, 1980 is redescribed as a new subgenus Antoniola sg. nov. and a type species is designated. All species of the genus are illustrated, including type specimens.
