Note. The genus is Afrotropical only. Bourgoin (1989) concluded that the four Muir specimens used to described N. breddini Muir, 1930 (Muir 1930) were label errors and that, so far, Tettigometridae are definitively absent from the neotropics. The recent mention by Aléné et al. (2016) of H. patruelis recently been introduced in the USA is a misinterpretation of Wilson's paper (Wilson 2005), which just refer to a potential pest, but still not yet recorded as present in the United States.
