Original description: Anapodisma beybienkoi
Rentz and Miller 1971
Diagnosis. Tegmen covering
tympanal organ. Furcula of male cylindrical, parallel; lateral processes
of supra-anal plate elongate, slender; cercus elongate, equal in
length to basal width of subgenital plate; apical projection of
subgenital plate elongte. Female with mesosternal interspace twice
as broad as long; supra-anal plate broad, without any indication
of longitudinal sulcus; ovipositor with dorsal ridges parallel,
with low serrations; subgenital plate produced mesad. Description.
HOLOTYPE MALE. HEAD short, dorso-ventral length slightly longer
than dorsal length of pronotum; frons in profile distinctly sloped;
frontal ridge with distinct furrow, better indicated in dorsal 2/3,
approaching but not attaining clypeus, in profile projecting beyond
base of antennae. Vertex broadly triangular, depressed mesad, without
median carinae; fastigium slightly less than twice as broad as interocular
distance at vertex; foveloae obsolete. Antennae extending distad
beyond apex of pronotum. PRONOTUM elongate not convex in profile;
prozona smooth, metazona rugulose, dorsal surface with three transverse
sulci; median carina weak, obsolete between sulci, more distinct
on metazona; lateral lobes trapezoidal, longer than deep, posterior
portion (part of metazona) coarsely punctate; anterior margin of
dorsal surface weakly rounded, median carina feebly emarginate;
posterior margin of dorsal surface concave, emarginate; anterior
and posterior lateral angles obtuse; ventral margin truncate in
distal 1/2, anterior portion truncate but directed dorsad. TEGMINA
abbreviate, elongate, with three prominent longitudinal veins, attaining
apex of first abdominal segment, covering 2/3 of abdominal tympanum.
LEGS. Fore femur stout, convex dorsad, ventral margin distinctly
concave. Fore and middle tibia bowed, ventral surface convex; anterior
and posterior margins of ventral surface with three spines in apical
1/4, two longer spines at apex. Middle femur thickened, outer surface
without any indication of lateral longitudinal sulcus. Hind femur
elongate, little more than 4.30 times longer than basal width; ventral
genicular lobe short, with apex broadly rounded, ventral margin
weakly sinuous; dorsal surface with eleven (s)pines on inner margin,
ten on outer margin, all equally spaced, weakly recurved. Apex of
ventral surface with two spurs on inner margin of equal length.
Empodium between claws large, ovoid, not attaining apex; first segment
of hind tarsus subequal to third. Prosternum with prominent, conical,
tubercle weakly directed toward mesosternum. Mesosternal lobes widely
separated, length of lobe almost equal to its greatest width, interspace
with lateral margin convex, nearly 3/4 as wide as mesosternal lobe.
Metasternum with lobes feebly separated, interspace narrow, somewhat
expanded anteriorad, greatest width 1/3-1/4 that of mesosternal
interspace at anterior margin. ABDOMEN smooth, almost glabrous,
without punctation; median carina feebly indicated, especially in
posterior portion of segments. Tympanal organ of first tergite well
developed, open; furculae of distal tergite small, cylindrical,
rugulose and finely punctate; supra-anal plate triangular, almost
ad broad as long; dorsal surface on each side with prominent tubercle;
lateral margins and tubercles finely punctate. Cercus conical, distal
1/4 narrowed dorso-ventrally flattened, in length just attaining
apex of supra-anal plate. Subgenital plate with prominent apical
tubercle and apparent second tubercle formed by pallium directed
dorsad at apex of supra-anal plate. Concealed genital complex. Allotype
female. Similar to male but with following exception: size larger,
form more robust. Mesosternal interspace nearly twice as broad as
long. Supra-anal plate triangular, nearly as wide as long, without
any indication of median longitudinal sulcus. Cercus stout, 2.5
times longer than basal width, tapered to apex. Ovipositor elongate,
ridges of dorsal valves parallel, with low, blunt serrations; apex
of dorsal and ventral valves excavate, dentate. Subgenital plate
simple, produced mesad. Coloration. Overall coloration
of species in life uniform in series before us, dark olive green
except for following areas, eye reddish brown; head distad of eye
dorsally with black stripe extending adjacent onto pronotum and
continuing laterally to pronotal apex. Tegmen pink, veins concolorous.
Dorsum of femora, tarsal claw and empodium brownish. Supra-anal
plate and furcula of male black except for medial longitudinal portion.
Cercus green, apical 1/2 dark brown to black. Supra-anal plate of
female concolorous with rest of abdomen; cercus light brown; ovipositor
straw brown to pink. Measurments.
