Tosena (from Chinese: 篤蟬; pinyin: dǔchán; Wade–Giles: tu3 ch'an2; lit. 'thick cicada'[1]) is a genus of cicadas from South-East Asia.[2][3] Species formerly included in Tosena are Distantalna splendida, Formotosena montivaga, Formotosena seebohmi, Trengganua sibylla[4] and two species now placed in Vittagaeana, with Tosena the only genus of tribe Tosenini.[5]

List of species

The Global Biodiversity Information Facility lists:[2]

  3. Tosena fasciata (Fabricius, 1787) - type species
  4. Tosena melanoptera (White, 1846)
