Face punctulate, with weak ocelli; vertex slightly exposed (Fig. 59). Pronotum nearly semicircular, the widest near the truncate hind margin (Fig. 59). Anterior margin convex and incrassate, slightly concave in the middle, with two upturned tubercles (Fig. 59). Anterior half of pronotum depressed, the surface granular; posterior part punctate and elevated, with two tubercles on disc (Fig. 59). Tegmina reduced to sclerotized blades (Fig. 60) which are far separated on the lateral sides of the mesonotum respectively, with apex slightly surpassing hind margin of mesonotum; wings absent (Fig. 17). Anterior ventral margin of front femur with 2–3 spines and with one small distal spine, hind margin with one large distal spine. Abdominal tergites densely punctate, with punctures denser and larger caudally; lateral margins smooth; anterolateral corners without holes. T6 with small spine in the each hind angle, T7 with relatively large posteriolateral angles, with apexes acute and directed to the terminus (Fig. 61). Abdominal sternites equally punctate. Lateral margins of S7 oblique and protruded medially; hind margin straight (Fig. 62) and subgenital fig marginally exposed. The surface of supra-anal fig uniformly covered with large round punctations; hind margin with 5–7 small subacute teeth medially; the lateral teeth with acute apexes are larger than the teeth between them (Fig. 63). Cercus fin-shaped and pointed apically, swollen and hirsute in venter, but hairless dorsally (Fig. 63). Anterior angles of subgenital fig tapering to subacute apexes (Fig. 64). Male genitalia. L1 well developed (Fig. 65); L2vm stick-like and L2d slightly sclerotized, which is hairy in left side of dorsal view (Fig. 66); R2 hook-shaped with apex rounded (Fig. 67).
