Fastigium verticis shovel-shaped, with a indistinct longitudinal sulcus in the midline, protruding forward, apex rounded (Fig. 1 A). Eyes globular, protruding outwards. Apical segment of maxillary palpi almost as long as subapical one, apex slightly swollen. Anterior margin of pronotum straight, posterior margin obtusely rounded (Fig. 1 D); lateral lobe longer than deep, humeral sinus comparatively distinct (Fig. 1 B). Thoracic auditory spiracles peanut-shaped, exposed. All femora unarmed on ventral surfaces. Fore coxa with a short spine; fore tibia with 3 – 5 long spines on inner side and 2 – 5 short spines on outer side of ventral surface; fore tibial tympana oblong and open on both sides. Middle tibia with 2 – 4 short spines on inner side and 4 – 5 short spines on outer side of ventral surface. Hind tibia with 21 – 30 spines on inner margin and 23 – 32 spines on outer margin of dorsal surface, with 2 pairs of ventral apical spurs and 1 pair of dorsal apical spurs. Tegmina developed, surpassing apices of hind femora; hind wings slightly longer than tegmina. Tenth abdominal tergite broad, posterior margin distinctly concave (Fig. 1 E). Cercus short and stout, base slightly broad, apex rounded; inner surface of base with one short and stout process (Fig. 1 E), inner surface of basal half longitudinally concave. Genitalia sclerotized, apex with 5 lobes, posterior margin concave in dorsal view; the lobe short and broad, covered with some small spines; ventral lobes short in lateral view, smooth; middle lobe smooth, base broad and apex narrow, which embedded among lobes (Fig. 1 G – I). Subgenital plate long and narrow, base slightly broad, basal margin concave; middle area narrow; apical area slightly broad and posterior margin truncate. Styli cylindrical, apices rounded, inserted on apices of lateral margins of subgenital plate (Fig. 1 F). Female. Cercus conical. Ovipositor moderately upcurved, ventral valvula with apex hook-shaped (Fig. 1 K). Subgenital plate quadrilateral, base slightly broad, tapering apically, apex rounded (Fig. 1 J). Coloration. ­ Body green. Eyes light brown. Disc of pronotum with a pair of longitudinal yellow stripes. Ventral surface of hind femur brown. Measurements­ (mm).
