Platylomia insignis Distant, 1912 View in CoL

Remarks. Distant (1912) described this species from Bhutan. However, Kato (1934) catalogued it as part of the Chinese Cicadidae fauna without explanation. The species was not included in the review and key to Chinese species recently published ( Wang & Wei, 2014). However, I retain it as part of the Chinese fauna for the time being because it is very likely a range extension from a country that borders China. However, voucher specimens need to be found in future.
