Paracercopis Schmidt, 1925: 4 View in CoL . Type species: Cercopis (Callitettix) seminigra Melichar, 1902 , by original designation.

Remarks. This genus was revised by Liang (1993). In this work Esakius chekiangensis Ouchi and P. transversa Lallemand and Synave , were synonymized with P. atricapilla (Distant) . However, from an examination of the type of atricapilla from India (not examined by Liang, 1993) (®gure 11), this is diOEerent from the types of the other two species from China. Therefore, P. chekiangensis becomes a good species with P. transversa as its new junior synonym syn. nov. (see checklist). In the same work, Liang (1993) followed Lallemand’s (1949) unnecessary emendation of darjilingii to darjilingi.
