Fore tibiae spines type 4, 4 (1, 1). Middle tibiae with 4 inner and 5 outer spines excluding apical spurs; hind tibiae with 18–20 dorsal teeth each margin above and 3 pairs of apical spurs, genicular lobe unarmed. 10 th abdominal tergite broad, merged with epiproct more completely, boundary vague and merged portion acute (Fig. 5). Cerci slender, without branches, apex with dorsal surface flat and hooked upwards (Figs. 5–7). Genitalia exposed and not protruding (Figs. 6–7). Subgenital plate longer than wide, hind margin truncate (Fig. 7), styles on both sides of hind margin. Female. Tegmina reaching cephalic margin of first abdominal tergite, laterally situated. Cerci long, conical. 10 th abdominal tergite median notched, epiproct trapezoidal. Subgenital plate with basal half widened, apical half narrow, hind margin with a median notch (Fig. 9). Ovipositor shorter than hind femur, apical half curved upwards, margins smooth. Coloration. Yellowish brown variegated blackish brown.
