Yoyetta fumea is a species of cicada, also known as the smoky-winged ambertail, in the true cicada family, Cicadettinae subfamily and Cicadettini tribe. The species is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2025 by Australian entomologists David L. Emery, Nathan J. Emery and Lindsay Popple.[1][2]
The specific epithet fumea (Latin: “smoky”) is an anatomical reference to the smoky colouration of the apical cells of the forewing.[1]
