Tryella infuscata is a species of cicada, also known as the large maroon bullet, in the true cicada family, Cicadettinae subfamily and Lamotialnini tribe. The species is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2003 by Australian entomologist Maxwell Sydney Moulds.[1][2]
The specific epithet infuscata comes from Latin (“obscured” or “darkened”), with reference to the infuscations on the forewings of the species.[1][3]
