Tibicinoides pallidula
Tibicinoides pallidula is a species of cicada in the family Cicadidae, originally described as Okanagana pallidula by Davis in 1917 before being transferred to the genus Tibicinoides. It belongs to the subfamily Tibicininae and tribe Tibicinini. As a member of the Auchenorrhyncha, it is a true bug with piercing-sucking mouthparts and undergoes incomplete metamorphosis. The species epithet 'pallidula' suggests pale coloration.
Tibicinoides rubrovenosa
Tibicinoides rubrovenosa is a species of cicada in the family Cicadidae, originally described as Okanagana rubrovenosa by Davis in 1915. It belongs to the genus Tibicinoides, a group of small to medium-sized cicadas found in western North America. The species epithet 'rubrovenosa' refers to reddish venation in the wings, a characteristic feature. Like other Tibicinoides species, it is associated with coniferous forest habitats. The taxon has been documented through 64 iNaturalist observations, indicating it is not extremely rare but has limited published biological data.
Tibicinoides utahensis
Tibicinoides utahensis is a cicada species described by Davis in 1919, originally placed in the genus Okanagana before being transferred to Tibicinoides. It occurs in the western United States and extends into British Columbia, Canada. The species has a documented association with big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata), suggesting a degree of host plant specificity uncommon among cicadas.
