Abstract:

Since I have published ''Die Cicadinen Japans" in the "Annotationes Zoologicae Japonensis "Vol. VI, Part 2, 1907, and some new species in my "Thousand Illustrated Insects of Japan" (Nippon Senchij-zukai), Additamenta, Vol. i, 1913, nothing seems to have been published in regard to the Japanese nor Formosan Cicadidae. In the present paper, I shall describe some new species and genera and enumerate at the same time all the species already known from our faunal regions.
According to my investigation, we have in Japan and Formosa 59 species under 28 genera, of which 14 species and 6 genera are new.
