FLYNN Entomologist and Curator of Life Sciences, Schiele Museum of Natural History, 1500 East Garrison Blvd., Gastonia, NC 28054 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A checklist of treehoppers (Hemiptera: Membracidae) of Panama is provided with known province distribution data. The world catalogue of Membracoidea, through 1996, lists 68 genera, 162 species, and 1 subspecies from Panama (McKamey, 1998). New research in Panama has documented range extensions for 29 genera, 107 species, and 1 subspecies previously unknown from Panama. With these adjustments and additions, the total treehopper fauna from Panama includes 97 genera, 269 species, and 2 subspecies. Tables listing published checklists and keys for Nearctic and Neotropical treehoppers are presented. Key words: Membracidae, treehoppers, checklist, Panama, nearctic checklist citations, neotropical checklist citations Treehoppers are a family of hemipterous insects that are distinguished by unusual shapes of the pronotum. The development and variety of these shapes are at their peak in the Neotropics. Numerous checklists and keys of treehoppers are available for the Nearctic Region (Table 1) but there have been few faunal distribution studies of treehoppers of the Neotropics even fewer with keys (Table 2). No separate faunal study or checklist of the treehoppers of Panama has been published. Since McKamey’s World Catalogue of Membracoidea (1998), the revisionary works by Albertson and Dietrich (2005, 2006), Andrade (2003, 2004), Creão-Duarte and Sakakibara (1996, 2000a, 2000b), Cryan & Deitz (1999a). Cryan et al (2003), Flynn (2003), Sakakibara (1998, 1999, 2002, 2005), Sakakibara and Creão-Duarte (2002), and Sakakibara and Evangelista (2008), have created new genera, synonymized genera, revised subgenera, and added new species to the listed 68 genera, 162 species, and 1 subspecies from Panama. Materials and methods The following checklist of species is based on a total of 2,825 specimens studied from two field seasons of collecting in Panama. Field collecting was done in Chiriquí, Panama, and Darien provinces during January 2005 and May 2006 between wet and dry seasons when insect activity is at its highest. Abbreviations for the institution holdings examined follows Arnett Jr., R.H., Samuelson, G.A. and G.M. Nishida (1993) except for the private collections. (DJFC) USA, North Carolina, Gastonia, Dawn J.

Dietrich: 11 May 2012; published: 1 Aug. 2012 35 Each specimen was examined under a binocular microscope and genitalia dissected when needed for species identification. Keys and descriptions from published works for Neotropical treehopper genera and species known from Central and South America were consulted for identifications. Published catalogues and country checklists for Central American and South American species were consulted to check for additional distribution records (see Table 2). Verification of species identifications was done by examining authoritatively identified specimens in institutions visited and discussions with other acknowledged authorities. All specimens were identified by the author unless otherwise noted. MAP 1.

However there is a disparity in the number of states and/or provinces covered versus countries. Checklists and keys to the Nearctic region (Table 1) cover 18 continental states, 18 areas (including Washington, DC), 6 Canadian provinces, and 5 Canadian areas. Among the papers for the Nearctic are 10 keys for 7 continental states, 1 key for North America (Van Duzee 1908a) and 1 check-list for North America (Van Duzee, 1923a). 38 · Zootaxa 3405 © 2012 Magnolia Press FLYNN In contrast, a listing of the checklists and keys to the Neotropical Region (Table 2) includes 7 countries, 5 areas, a series of keys by Goding covering all of South America (1926e, 1928a, 1928e, 1929e), Fowler’s Biologia Centrali-Americana (1894b, 1894c, 1895a-f, 1896b-e) covering Central America and Godoy’s recent book on generic identification for tropical America (2006). Also 6 Caribbean islands and 1 Caribbean area are cited. Keys to Neotropical treehoppers are available for Uruguay (Goding 1914a, 1920a-c, 1921a), Ecuador (Goding 1920c), Chile (Goding 1925b), Puerto Rico (Osborn 1935a, Ramos 1957), and the Dominican Republic (Ramos 1979a). Despite this recent progress towards more fully documenting the Neotropical fauna, the distributions of most spe- cies and faunistic components of most countries remain poorly known. The contribution of this checklist for Pan- ama will add much new distributional information for treehoppers in Central America. Presence of ten species recorded in literature as occurring in Panama could not be confirmed (Table 3). Among these Alchisme veruta Fowler is the only one originally described from Panama. No specimens of these species were seen to verify their presence in Panama but they are included to provide a complete literature review. Exami- nation of more specimens is needed to determine the validity of the published records TABLE 3.

Complete discussion is found under each species account. Barro Colorado Island (BCI) is located in Gatun Lake in the middle of the Panama Canal. Curran (1929a) gives notes on a few of the more common species found in the 1929 survey of the island while still part of the Canal Zone. In 1979 BCI, with five adjacent peninsulas, administered by the Smithsonian Institution (Smithsonian Trop- ical Resesarch Institute (STRI)), was designated the Barro Colorado Nature Monument. It is visited by researchers from throughout the world. Henk Wolda sampled extensively on BCI for 7 years (1977-1983), using UV light traps, many of which were at three levels from the ground to the canopy (Wolda 1979a, 1980a, 1982a, 1983a). A list of the 71 species recorded from Barro Colorado Island, Colon Province, most of which came from H. Wolda’s collection at STRI, is found in Table 4. The Panama Canal traverses both Colon and Panama Provinces and many specimen data labels examined with location Canal Zone did not delineate which province the specimen was collected. Those species with such unspec- ified Canal Zone province data are listed in Table 5. As a result of the Torrijos-Carter Treaty of 1977, the “Canal Zone” is now known as the “canal area”. Map 1 delineates each province of Panama with the number of species found in each province cited under each province abbreviation. San Blas is now known as Comarca de Guna Yala but is listed by San Blas as it is the more familiar name. Examination of the number of species recorded from each Province shows the most species found in Chiriqui (151), Colon (108), and Panama (118). The fewest species recorded were from Herrera (8), San Blas (7), and Los Santos (3). The low species diversity in the aforementioned three Provinces is most likely due to: (1) CHECKLIST OF TREEHOPPERS OF PANAMA Zootaxa 3405 © 2012 Magnolia Press · 39 undersampling; (2) poor habitats in Los Santos and Herrera provinces (vegetationally depauperate) because area consists almost entirely of cattle ranches; (3) political issues in San Blas (predominantly Indian Reservation where it is difficult to get permission to collect). The Panama Canal, which traverses both Colon and Panama Provinces, and the presence of the University of Panama in the Panama Province, appear to provide opportunities for more extensive collecting. Barro Colorado Island (BCI), owned by Smithsonian Institute, as an international biosphere reserve, is visited and studied by thousands of scientists worldwide, providing extensive sample data.

Results What follows is a checklist of known species in Panama with new range extensions for species previously unknown from Panama. The new research in Panama treehoppers has documented range extensions for 29 genera, 107 species, and 1 subspecies previously unknown from Panama. With these new range extensions, the treehopper 40 · Zootaxa 3405 © 2012 Magnolia Press FLYNN fauna known from Panama includes 97 genera, 269 species, and 2 subspecies. An ‘*’ after the author’s name of a species indicates a new record for that species in Panama, verified through a visual identification of one or more specimens. An ‘**’ after the author of a species indicates a new record for that species in Panama through literature citation only (specimens from Panama were not seen by the author). Following a ‘*’ and ‘**’ is a list of the prov- inces (Map 1) in Panama (underlined) where each species has been recorded, municipalities, # of specimens seen for each sex, and deposition location for voucher specimens if the record is taken from seen specimens. Species records for the country of Panama only (no province given) is noted by verbage ‘Country (Panama) only’ with lit- erature citation following the species. Species records for a Province only is noted by verbage ‘Province only’ with literature citation following the species. Literature citations also follow province records where no specimens have been seen by the author from that province. The letter suffixes following citation dates are those used in the major bibliographic references for the Membracoidea through 1996: Metcalf and Wade (1965a); Deitz and Kopp (1987a); Deitz (1989a); McKamey (1998). Post 1996 referneces have no letter suffixes. TABLE 5. Listing of 17 species (alpha by genus) recorded from Canal Zone = “canal area” (Panama/Colon Provinces unspecified).
