Description

Male. Body reddish brown, darker caudally, or black (Fig. 15). Eyes black and ocelli yellowish. Antennae, upper lip, mandible, labial palpi and maxillary palpomeres reddish brown. Legs brown, reddish on coxae, trochanter and anterior half of femora. Abdominal sternites reddish brown with the middle of the former several sternites brown (Fig. 16).
Face punctulated and vertex exposed. Ocelli small and round. Anterior margin of pronotum with a V-shaped emargination in the midline, a small recurved tubercle behind the margin on each side of the excision; anterior half depressed, the floor densely granular, lateral area punctate; region behind grooves convex and densely punctate, with one or two pairs of relatively large tubercles on the mounds symmetrically (Fig. 61). Tegmina and wings well developed, sometimes mutilated and remaining an uneven base (Fig. 15). Radius of tegmen with or without 1 long posterior branch which is forked; median vein branched (Figs 87–88). Radial vein of hind wing with one or more branches near the apex, some branches reforked, the posterior branch branched or not; median vein with two branches or simple; cubitus with 7–8 complete and 8–10 incomplete branches (Figs 96–97). Anterior ventral margin of fore femur equipped with 1–3 spines, and with or without a minute distal spine, posterior margin with a large distal spine. Abdominal tergites punctated, the punctures denser laterally and dorsoposteriorly, anterolateral corners usually without holes, rarely with small holes on T6 and T7 only; lateral angle of T6 produced into a rounded and oblique spine; lateral margin of T7 with 5–6 obtuse teeth, laterocaudal angle stout and subacute (Fig. 62). Abdominal sternites densely punctured, S7 with a depression on the caudal margin (Fig. 63), subgenital plate more or less exposed. Supra-anal plate densely covered with coarse punctations, sometimes with minute hairs; hind margin with 8-16 subequal teeth, whose apex obtuse; some teeth contiguous. Cerci bulbous, dorsal surface hairless and ventral surface setose (Fig. 64). Subgenital plate with anterior margin concave, lateral margin with a mesal indentation (Fig. 65). Male genitalia. L1 developed but slightly sclerotized (Fig. 66); L2d not bifurcated, elongate and tapering towards the apex, mostly with a weak concavity in hind margin (Fig. 67); R2 well developed, hook-shaped, apex subacute and curved upwards (Fig. 68).
Female. Differs only slightly from male in partial specimens as follows: anterior margin of pronotum slightly excised, and the tubercles indistinct behind the indentation.
Nymph. Similar to adult, but body yellowish-brown, anterior margin of the pronotum without excision and protuberance, the tubercles on the floor absent; depression of anterior half densely punctuate; meso- and metanotum with produced laterocaudal angle, the protrusion dark or black (Figs 17–18).
