Yoyetta abdominalis is a species of cicada, also known as the golden-haired firetail, in the true cicada family, Cicadettinae subfamily and Cicadettini tribe. The species is endemic to Australia. It was described in 1892 by English entomologist William Lucas Distant.
The length of the forewing is 22âÂÂ29 mm.
The species occurs from the Brindabella Range in the Australian Capital Territory southwards and westwards through much of Victoria to south-eastern South Australia, with an isolated population near Orange in central New South Wales. It also occurs in eastern Tasmania. Associated habitats include cool temperate eucalypt forest and subalpine woodland.
Adult males may be heard from November to January, clinging to the upper branches of trees, emitting brief calls terminating in a sharp âÂÂtickâÂÂ.
