Abstract
A new genus and new species of Cicadidae, Cochleopsaltria duffelsi gen. and sp. nov., are described from northern Vietnam. This genus is allied to the genus Orientopsaltria Kato, 1944 but is distinguished by the broad and very convex distal two thirds of the male opercula, the uncal lobes that are fused at the base and the apically rounded upper pygofer lobes that have no protrusion. A distribution map and biological data for Cochleopsaltria duffelsi gen. and sp. nov. are provided.
