03E887BFFFC4FFC539CFFA3F9FF7FC4F.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This new genus is similar to Atkinsoniella Distant, 1908 in some respects. Several species, such as A. albimacula, A. alcmena, A. chloritta, A. cuspidata, A. nigripennis and A. opponens, have long and strongly bent pygofer processes as in Biprocessa. However, in Biprocessa the pygofer process is distinctly segmented. Also, in the mentioned species of Atkinsoniella, the aedeagus is usually as long as the paraphysis, the paraphysis in ventral view is usually acute apically, and the styles extend posteriorly much beyond the apex of the connective. In Biprocessa, the aedeagus is much shorter than the paraphysis, the paraphysis is slender, in ventral view with pair of angulate lateral processes, and the styles do not extend posteriorly beyond the connective apex. Several species of Atkinsoniella, i. e., A. aurantiaca, A. curvata, A. cyclops, A. flavipenna, A. punica, A. rinkihonis, A. thalia, A. thaloidea and A. uniguttata, have similar color pattern with the species of Biprocessa. They are difficult to distinguish based on external characters, but can easily distinguished by the male genitalia features. In the above mentioned species of Atkinsoniella, the male pygofer processes are developed but not segmented; the aedeagus extends posteriorly distinctly farther than the paraphysis, and the styles extended much beyond the apex of the connective.	en	Meng, Ze-Hong, Yang, Mao-Fa (2015): A new genus and species of Cicadellini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from China.

03E887BFFFC4FFC539CFFA3F9FF7FC4F.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The genus name is derived from “ bi - ” and “ processa ” due to the two lateral angular processes on the paraphysis. The gender of the genus is feminine.	en	Meng, Ze-Hong, Yang, Mao-Fa (2015): A new genus and species of Cicadellini (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from China.
