Tricentrus is a genus of tree-hoppers in the tribe Gargarini, erected by Carl Stål in 1866.[2] Species have been recorded from India, China, Japan, South-east Asia and Australia.[3][1]

Taxonomy

[edit]

The name Tricentrus is derived from the Greek: τρι- (three) and κέντρον (sharp points), which describes the general appearance of insects;[1] the type species T. fairmairei having originally been placed in the genus Centrotus by Stål. The genus is distinguished from others such as Gargara and species are generally identified by the shape of the fronto-clypeus, with characteristics in the male genitalia and subgenital plate also used.[4]
