This study completes the first taxonomic revision of the planthopper family Cixiidae in Taiwan with emphasis on the morphology of the male and female genitalia. In total, 20 genera and 155 species are recognized. A key to the tribes of Bothriocerinae was given in a previous work. In this paper, keys to both the subfamilies and tribes of the Cixiidae are presented. The 5 tribes Pentastirini, Bothriocerini, Bennini, Stenophlepsini, and Cixiini were previously revised by the authors, and the remaining tribe, Pintaliini, is treated here with 6 species. Neocarpia maai represents a new genus and new species. Kirbyana lini, Eucarpia stellata, E. specialis, and E. truncata are described as new species. The male of K. pagana (Melichar) is described and illustrated for the first time.
