title = "Proposed designation of a neotype for Issus longipennis Spinola, 1839, the type species of Thionia St{\aa}l, 1859 (Hemiptera: Auchenorrhyncha: Fulgoroidea: Issidae)",
abstract = "Following the ICZN (1999) Articles 75.1–75.3, a neotype of Issus longipennis Spinola, 1839 is designated. This leads to the synonymy of Issus longipennis Spinola, 1839 and Issus cinctifrons St{\aa}l, 1854, syn. nov. and stabilization of the generic concept of Thionia St{\aa}l, 1859, one of the largest genera in the family Issidae which currently includes 62 species.",
