Katoa

Katoa is a genus of cicadas from Southeast Asia.[1] The type species is Katoa tenmokuensis. Formerly placed in the tribe Tibicinini, after detailed morphological analysis, in 2012 Lee placed the genus among the Cicadettini, also of the subfamily Cicadettinae.[3] After molecular phylogenetic analysis and physical examination, in 2018 Marshal, et al., placed the genus in its own tribe, Katoini, remaining in the subfamily Cicadettinae.[4]

This article is about the Asian cicada genus. For the municipality in West Bengal, India, see Katwa.
