The genus Nelcyndana was described by Stål (1870) as the new subgenus Nelcynda of the genus Tibicen Latreille, 1825. The new subgenus was erected for Nelcynda tener, a species from the Philippines also described by Stål in the same paper. In 1905, Distant elevated Nelcynda to genus rank and added a new species, N. madagascariensis, to the genus. The new name Nelcyndana was proposed by Distant (1906) since Nelcynda Stål proved to be preoccupied by Nelcynda Walker, 1862 used in Lepidoptera.
