Abricta is a genus of cicada found in Réunion, Mauritius, northeastern India, the Moluccas, New Caledonia and eastern Australia.

Adult members of the genus usually face downwards on tree branches, and lay their eggs in living tissue.

[1] However, recent review of the genus has shown it to be a disparate group of species, and the Australian members moved to other genera.

Moulds conducted a morphological analysis of the genus and found the cicadas split naturally into clades according to biogeographical region.

[2][3][4] The genus has now been restricted to two species found in the region of Mauritius and surrounds.
