Abstract
The genus Taractellus Metcalf is redescribed based on new material; its position in the family Achilidae and in the tribe Rhotalini is confirmed. The evolutionarily labile anastomosis of the medial and anterocubital veins of the hind wing in the representatives of Achilidae and in the other Fulgoroidea is analyzed.
