Pomponia is a genus of cicadas from Asia.Metcalf, Z.P. 1963. General catalogue of the Homoptera. Fascicle VIII. Cicadoidea. Part 1. Cicadidae. Section II. Gaeaninae and Cicadinae. i-vii, 587–585. – North Carolina State College, Raleigh, North Carolina. A group of species previously placed in Pomponia, containing the largest cicada species found on earth, have recently been moved to Megapomponia.Boulard, M. 2005. Création du genre Megapomponia et description de Mp. clamorigravis n. sp. (Rhynchota, Cicadoidea, Cicadidae). EPHE, Trav. Lab. Biol. Evol. Insectes Hemip. 15:93-110Lee, J.L., and Sanborn, A.F. (2010). Three new species of the genus Megapomponia (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) from Indochina, with a key to the species of Megapomponia. Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology 13(1):31–39 However, the remaining species still form a very heterogeneous group and Duffels and Hayashi (2006) mentioned that several species should probably be transferred to genera like Terpnosia and Leptosemia.Duffels, J.P., Hayashi, M. 2006. On the identity of the cicada species Pomponia picta (Walker) (=P. fusca (Olivier)) and P. linearis (Walker) (Hemiptera: Cicadidae).
