Abstract
Two new genera of macropterous leafhoppers, tentatively included in the tribe Bonaspeiini Zahniser and Dietrich (2013) from the Fynbos biome of south-western parts of South Africa, are described. These are Retevolatus gen. nov. with type species R. flexiverpus sp. nov., R. semicurviverpus sp. nov. and R. subspiniverpus sp. nov. and Flavorubivolatus gen. nov. with type species F. glabriverpus sp. nov. and F. tensiverpus sp. nov. and F. curtiverpus sp. nov. Collection records and distribution modelling confirmed that species of both genera occur within a confined region of south-western parts of South Africa.
