In 2000, Kos and Gogala expressed the opinion that it was likely that the Maua as it was then constructed was interlineated with the genus Purana as the criteria used by Distant in separating them were not reflective of the phylogenetic relations of the species included.[3] In 2010, Lee and Hill redefined the Cicadini subtribe Leptopsaltriina Moulton, 1923, as well as a number of other relationships in the Asian Cicadidae, placing both Maua and Purana in Leptopsaltriina, along with several other genera.[4]

gollark: It doesn't measure light, it measures sound reflections.
gollark: I'm not sure there's much to implement, Peter got it reading the data we need.
gollark: Probably just something like "we have basic robot things working, but progress on implementing the challenges stopped due to the lockdown".
gollark: Does gcd.hs work then, somehow?
gollark: That's suspiciously simple then, hm.
