Issus muscaeformis (Schrank, 1781)

Cicada muscaeformis Schrank, 1781: 253

Issus truncatus Fieber, 1876: 265, syn. fide Melichar, 1906: 192 Issus frontalis sensu Holzinger, Kammerlander & Nickel 2003: 449 (Fig. 3)

Type material examined. 3, lectotype (here designated) of Issus truncatus Fieber (MNHN (EH)7478), with Noualhier’s hand-written label: “ Type Fieber” (NLC).

Note. I. truncatus was based on a male (or males) from Southern France. The male from NLC corresponds to Fieber’s drawings (male genitalia are figured) and it is here designated as lectotype.

I. truncatus was placed in synonymy with I. muscaeformis by Melichar (1906). The synonymy of I. truncatus and I. novaki Dlabola, 1959, proposed by Holzinger, Kammerlander & Nickel (2003), is incorrect.
