Abstract


The genus Hauptenia (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Derbidae) is recorded for the first time in Bangladesh to describe a new species, H. bandarbanensis n.sp. This new species is compared to the seven existing species in this genusbut differs from all. It is closer to H. magnifica (Yang & Wu, 1993) (type species) but differs from the latter in the flagellum of aedeagus with 6 processes, and 3 lobes out of 4 produced into processes, bipartite lobe absent (flagellum of aedeagus with 5 processes, and 2 lobes out of 4 produced into processes, one lobe bipartite in H. magnifica). Diagnosis and illustrations of detailed diagnostic characters, including color photographs and line drawings of male genitalia are provided with an identification key to all species of the genus.
