Abstract

The Neotropical microleafhopper genera Paulomanus and Beamerana are redescribed based on study of type material and newly collected specimens. Paulomanus is recorded for the first time from Argentina and a new species, P. falciformis n. sp., is described. Detailed morphological description and illustration of the new species and a key to males of the known species of Paulomanus are provided. A key to genera of the New World Empoascini is also provided.
