Fauna of singing cicadas (Auchenorrhyncha: Cicadoidea) of Macedonia - a bioacoustic survey

The fauna of singing cicadas (Cicadoidea) of Macedonia has been investigated with classic and bioacoustic methods, using recording equipment for sonic range and ultrasonic detectors. In the literature we found data for 6 species, but the reported locality of Tibicina steveni (Krynicki, 1837) is in Bulgaria. In addition to the remaining 5 species: Lyristes plebejus (Scopoli, 1763), Cicada orni Linné, 1758, Tibicina haematodes (Scopoli, 1763), Cicadatra atra (Olivier, 1790) and C. hyalina (Fabricius, 1798), we discovered in Macedonia 10 more species: Cicadatra platyptera Fieber, 1876, C. persica Kirkaldy, 1909, Tettigetta brullei (Fieber, 1876), T. dimissa (Hagen, 1856), Cicadetta montana (Scopoli, 1772), C. cerdaniensis Puissant & Boulard, 2000, C. macedonica Schedl, 1999, C. cf. podolica (Eichwald, 1830), C. tibialis (Panzer, 1798) and Pagiphora annulata (Brullé, 1832). The distribution of species is shown in maps with UTM grid. Additional new bioacoustic data for Cicadatra platyptera and P. annulata are included.
