Lee, Y.J. & Z. Lei. 2024. A new cicada species of the genus Kosemia Matsumura (Hemiptera: Cicadidae: Cicadettinae) from Xinjiang, China. Journal of Insect Biodiversity 57(1): 13–18. pdf

Abstract reads: Kosemia brevis sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Cicadidae: Cicadettinae: Cicadettini) is described from Xinjiang, China. This species is morphologically closest to Kosemia yezoensis (Matsumura, 1898) as its forewing median vein and cubitus anterior vein are fused at the base. However, the new species can be distinguished from K. yezoensis by the size and color of the anal styles. Its body is much smaller but plump, and its forewing is comparatively short, compared to K. yezoensis.
