Abstract. A new subgenus of the issid genus Bubastia Emeljanov, 1975 is erected – Capititudes subgen. n. (type species: Bubastia jatagana Dlabola, 1980) and subgeneric arrangement of the species is proposed. Hysterodus Dlabola, 1980 is placed in synonymy with Quadriva Ghauri, 1965 and Parahiracia Ôuchi, 1940 with Fortunia Distant, 1909 (Issidae). The following species names (Issidae) are placed in synonymy: Issus quadriguttatus Walker, 1851 with I. coleoptratus (Fabricius, 1781), Issus furtivus Walker, 1857 with I. praecedens Walker, 1857, Bubastia libanotica Dlabola, 1987 with B. ephialtes (Linnavuori, 1971), B. quadracuta Dlabola, 1980 with B. suturalis (Fieber, 1877), and Tshurtshurnella zebrina Dlabola, 1987 with T. trifasciata (Linnavuori, 1965). Hysteropterum maroccanum Lethierry, 1877 is transferred to the genus Bergevinium Gnezdilov, 2003, Mycterodus tunicatus Logvinenko, 1974 and M. allotrius Lukjanova, 1991 to the genus Quadriva Ghauri, 1965, Kervillea insulana (Dlabola, 1982) to the genus Rhissolepus Emeljanov, 1971, Prosonoma viridis Lallemand, 1942 to the genus Fortunia Distant, 1909, Colpoptera memnonia Fennah, 1955 to the genus Neocolpoptera Dozier, 1931 (Issidae), and Hysteropterum truncatellum Walker, 1851 to the genus Bilbilicallia Jacobi, 1928 (Nogodinidae). The genera Fortunia Distant, 1909, Scantinius Stеl, 1866, Pterygoma Melichar, 1903, Prosonoma Melichar, 1906, and Bardunia Stеl, 1863 are transferred to the tribe Parahiraciini Cheng & Yang, 1991 (Issidae). The genera Eupilis Walker, 1857, Tempsa Stеl, 1866, Gabaloeca Walker, 1870, Cheiloceps Uhler, 1895, and Ugoa Fennah, 1945 are transferred to the tribe Colpopterini Gnezdilov, 2003 (Issidae). New data on distribution of some species of the families Issidae, Caliscelidae, and Tropiduchidae are provided.
