Yoyetta robusta is a species of cicada, also known as the robust ambertail, in the true cicada family, Cicadettinae subfamily and Cicadettini tribe. The species is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2022 by Australian entomologists Lindsay Popple and David L. Emery.[1][2]
The specific epithet robusta (Latin: “robust”) refers to the robust appearance of the cicadas compared to their congeners.[1]
