Abstract

The cixiid planthopper genus Indolipa Emeljanov, 2001 is revised taxonomically. Seventeen species are recognized of which one, Indolipa gansuensis sp. nov., is new to science. Indolipa kureongensis (Distant, 1911) and I. gansuensis represent the first record of the genus for the Palaearctic Region. A list of all known species of the genus Indolipa is given as well as new descriptions, illustrations and an identification key to Chinese species.
