R.J. Wang, a new monotypic genus for (Wall. ex Kurz) M.D.Yuan & R.J.Wang, new combination, is segregated from the - complex, based on morphological and molecular evidence. Phylogenetically, the new genus is sister to , from which it differs by a combination of morphological characters: herbaceous habit, terminal inflorescence with subtended leaves, heterostylous flowers, indehiscent fruits and pollen with double microreticulate tectum. A key to the genera of the complex in China is provided for further identification.

Moreyra and co-authors, in their recent paper published in , presented a desperately needed Hyb-Seq phylogeny of the genus . Through their findings, they provided a critical assessment of an earlier proposal of ours to separate sect. and into the genera and , respectively.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe genus Platocerella is a monotypic otiocerine genus (Derbidae: Otiocerinae: Otiocerini) reported from Guyana. A new species of Platocerella associated with palms is herein described from Costa Rica. Molecular data for the barcoding region cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), 18S rRNA gene, and D9-D10 expansion region of the 28S rRNA gene is provided to produce a preliminary phylogenetic tree including the new species and related taxa to place the new species relative to other otiocerine planthoppers.
