- Tribe Selymbriini Moulds and Marshall, 2018 (in Marshall et al. 2018) Selymbriini Moulds and Marshall 2018 (in Marshall et al. 2018): 53. TYPE GENUS.— Selymbria Stål 1861: 615. REMARKS.— Marshall et al. (2018) transferred the genus Selymbria from the Taphurini to a new monogeneric tribe. The basal position of the genus in their multi-gene tree suggests it is an ancient lineage and it is the only genus of Cicadidae to show an aedeagus that is similar in structure to the species of Tettigarcta of the family Tettigarctidae Distant, 1905f (Marshall et al. 2018). The supra-antennal plate that almost meets the eye, the lack of an accessory sound producing structure in the males, the undulated aedeagal basal plate that is not right-angled distally, a theca that is very short and laterally expanded into a broad flat distal end ornamented with triangular wings like species of the Tettigarctidae, and an uncus that is exceedingly long, undivided, non-retractable within the pygofer distinguish the Selymbriini from the other Tibicininae tribes (Marshall et al. 2018).
