description of a new species of the genus hyalessa china (hemiptera: cicadidae: sonatini) from yunnan, china, with a key to the species of hyalessa and a calling song analysis for two hyalessa species.	a new species, hyalessa scutata sp. nov., is described from yunnan, china. this species is similar to hyalessa fuscata (distant, 1905) but is distinguished by the larger male opercula and the evenly narrow uncal lobe. hyalessa ella (lei & chou, 1997) syn. nov. is synonymized with hyalessa stratoria (distant, 1905). a detailed sound analysis of the calling songs of hyalessa fuscata (distant, 1905) and hyalessa maculaticollis (de motschulsky, 1866) is provided. a key to the species of hyalessa chi ...	2016	27395139
on cicadas of hyalessa maculaticollis complex (hemiptera, cicadidae) of china.	the genus hyalessa china is reviewed based on the discovery of male of the type species h. ronshana china as well as the description of one new species (h. batangensis sp. n.). the species formerly included in the genus sonata lee are removed to hyalessa as new combinations. intraspecific variations of h. maculaticollis are enumerated based on materials collected from various locations from china. the identity of sonata and the systematic placement of hyalessa are discussed. a key to all species ...	2014	24478586
artificial insect wings with biomimetic wing morphology and mechanical properties.	the pursuit of a high lift force for insect-scale flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles (fmavs) requires that their artificial wings possess biomimetic wing features which are close to those of their natural counterpart. in this work, we present both fabrication and testing methods for artificial insect wings with biomimetic wing morphology and mechanical properties. the artificial cicada (hyalessa maculaticollis) wing is fabricated through a high precision laser cutting technique and a bonding pr ...	2017	28696330
