Description
Summary:The genus Lamellitettigodes Gunther, 1939 from Southeast Asia is reviewed. The genus currently includes seven species and is transferred to Tetriginae Rambur, 1838. Two new species are described: Lamellitettigodes novaeguineae sp. nov. from New Guinea and Lamellitettigodes karwinkeli sp. nov. from Yunnan, People's Republic of China. Lamellitettigodes palawanicus Gunther, 1939 stat. nov. is no longer regarded as a subspecies of L. contractus, but a separate species. Two species are transferred from Euparatettix Hancock, 1904 to Lamellitettigodes: Lamellitettigodes sagittatus (Bolivar, 1887) comb. nov. and Lamellitettigodes cultratus (Bolivar, 1898) comb. nov. One species is transferred from Tetrix Latreille, 1802 to Lamellitettigodes--Lamellitettigodes signatus (Bolivar, 1887) comb. nov. Xistra tricristata sumatrana Bolivar, 1898 syn. nov., Xistra tricristata Bolivar, 1898 syn. nov., and Probolotettix corticolus Blackith & Blackith, 1987 syn. nov. are synonymized with Lamellitettigodes contractus (Bolivar, 1887). Probolotettix kevani Blackith & Blackith, 1987 syn. nov. is synonymized with Euparatettix personatus (Bolivar, 1887). Additionally, in the genus Lamellitettix Hancock, 1904, Lamellitettix acutus Hancock, 1904 stat. rev. is retransferred from a subspecies of Lamellitettix gallinaceus (Stal, 1877) to a separate species status.
