Species currently assigned to Pauropsalta Goding & Froggatt in New Caledonia are reviewed. Molecular and morphological studies indicate that New Caledonian cicadas placed in this genus belong in a different genus. The genus Caledopsalta gen. nov. is therefore erected to accommodate Caledopsalta johanae comb. nov., and Caledopsalta judithae. comb. nov., as well as the following four new species: Caledopsalta ouitchamboensis sp. nov., C. canteminvantum sp. nov., C. garrula sp. nov. and C. sciaphila sp. nov. Male calling songs of all species are analysed and described from field recordings. A key to the species of Caledopsalta gen. nov. is provided. This new genus is included within the tribe Cicadettini, with Pauropsalta johanae designated as the type species.
