Tettigarctidae - Taxon details in World Auchenorrhyncha Database

The Tettigarctidae, known as the hairy cicadas, are a small relict (mostly extinct) family of primitive cicadas. Along with more than 20 extinct genera, Tettigarctidae contains a single extant genus, Tettigarcta, with two extant species, one from southern Australia (T. crinita) and one from the island of Tasmania (T. tomentosa). Fossil taxa include Paratettigarcta from the Miocene of New Zealand,[1] Meuniera from the Paleocene of France,[2] and Sanmai from the Late Jurassic of China,[3] and Maculaferrum of early Late Cretaceous Canada.[4]Tettigarcta are the closest living relatives of the true cicadas.[5][6]

Genera

Only one genus in the family Tettigarctidae is not extinct, Tettigarcta.[7][8]
