Calliopsida cinnabarina ( Berg, 1879) View in CoL

Tettigades cinnabarina Berg 1879: 137 View in CoL .

Jacobi (1907) recorded the species from Chile and Argentina without specific location data. Goding (1926) cited Jacobi (1907) as the source for listing the species in his work. Peña (1987), listing only seven species and lacking specific localities for any species, associated the species with the mountain Aconcagua in central Chile along with the species Ahomana chilensis Distant, 1905b View in CoL and Tettigades compacta Walker, 1850 View in CoL . However, Sanborn & Heath (2014) determined the distribution of Calliopsida cinnabarina View in CoL is restricted to the Monte floristic province of Cabrera (1971) found east of the cordillera and did not extend to higher elevations in the Pre-puna or Puna floristic provinces. The association of species with specific plant communities in Argentina ( Sanborn et al. 2011) that are not the same as those on the western side of the cordillera suggests that the specimen was either misidentified or mislabeled. In addition, if Ahomana chilensis View in CoL is associated with a similar habitat (no locality other than Chile is provided with Distant’s (1905b) original description) as the only other species of the genus, A. neotropicalis Distant, 1905b (Sanborn 2014) View in CoL , then it should be found along the northern coast of Chile ( Eva et al. 2004), not high in the mountains of central Chile. Similarly, T. compacta View in CoL is known from only one specific locality (Los Pocillos ( Torres 1958)) on the western side of the cordillera in a completely different plant community than C. cinnabarina View in CoL . This suggests Peña (1987) did not see specimens or had no specific locality data when assigning species to general geographic areas. As a result, no definitive records for the species in Chile can be verified and Calliopsida cinnabarina ( Berg, 1879) View in CoL is removed from the Chilean cicada fauna.
