| Popis: | The singing cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) of Bulgaria were poorly known. There are published records for 14 species:Cicada orni,Lyristes plebejus,Cicadatra atra,Cicadatra hyalina,Cicadatra persica,Cicadetta montana,Cicadetta mediterranea,Dimissalna dimissa,Oligoglena tibialis,Tympanistalna gastrica,Pagiphora annulata,Saticula coriaria,Tibicina haematodesandTibicina steveni.Two species from this list were doubtful in the beginning of our study, sinceTympanistalna gastricais distributed in central and southern Portugal andSaticula coriariais a north African species.We checked three major institutional collections housed in Sofia, Bulgaria: the National Museum of Natural History (SOFM), the Institute of Zoology (ZISB) and the Biology Faculty of Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski" (BFUS). We confirmed 11 of the species mentioned in literature, exceptCicadetta mediterraneaand found two additional species:Cicadatra platypteraandCicadetta macedonica(the specimens in BFUS were bioacoustically confirmed).Based on this knowledge, we further investigated the singing cicadas of Bulgaria with the use of morphological and bioacoustic methods in the years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2016, 2018 and 2019. We were not able to confirm the presence ofCicadatra persicaandCicadetta mediterranea, but found three additional species:Cicadetta brevipenniss. lat.,Cicadetta cantilatrixandTettigettula pygmea. Using the bioacoustic methods, we also detected unknown singing patterns, which could belong to three or four additional taxa, which need to be described.The Bulgarian fauna of singing cicadas at the moment consists of 16 confirmed and 3-4 potential species. |
