Genera

The World Auchenorrhyncha Database^[2] includes the following:^[a]

^ A number of living genera have been moved to other tribes; the fossil genus †Camuracicada Moulds, 2018^[3] is now placed incertae sedis in the Cicadidae.
^ "Lyristes" was a junior synonym of Tibicen Latreille, 1825 and this case is now confirmed.^[4]
