Discotettix Costa 1864

Description

Subgenus Discotettix Costa, 1864

Discotettix (as nominotypical subgenus): Kevan 1966: 380.

Taxonomic notes. Two previously synonymized genera, Discotettix and Mnesarchus, have been recognized as distinct subgenera by Kevan (1966) and we agree with such a decision. Type species, synonymy, and description of nominotypical subgenus are given under the genus Discotettix (see above). The differences from the subgenus Mnesarchus are given below.

Composition. The nominotypical subgenus consists of six species, three of which are described below.
