    Painted Cicadas

    Leptopsaltriini is a tribe of cicadas comprising at least 200 described species distributed across the Palearctic, Nearctic, and Indomalayan realms. The tribe is organized into six subtribes, with notable diversity in South and Southeast Asia. A recently described genus, Versicolora, has revealed the first documented case of colour-changing behaviour in the superfamily Cicadoidea.
