American katydids of the subtribe Viadanina stat. nov.
(Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Phaneropterinae)
INTRODUCTION
This paper is a further step in the cycle of publications by these coauthors on the American katydids (Gorochov, 1998, 2006, 2012a, b, 2013, 2014a, b, c, 2015; Cadena-
Castañeda, 2011, 2012, 2013a, b, 2014a, b, c, 2015a, b, c; Cadena-Castañeda & Gorochov 2012, 2013; Cadena-Castañeda & Garcia, 2014).
These communications contain descriptions of numerous new genera, subgenera, species and subspecies from some subfamilies of the
family Tettigoniidae. Especially a lot of news has been found in the subfamily Phaneropterinae. Here,
two genera of Phaneropterinae belonging to the subtribe Viadanina stat. nov. (Viadana Walker, 1869 and Tomeophera Brunner-
Wattenwyl, 1878) are discussed, and for the genus Anaulacomera Stål, 1873 previously
considered as closely relative to these genera, a separate subtribe (Anaulacomerina stat. nov.) is proposed.
