that of metazona of pronotum. Hind femora very long and narrow;
length of femur 5.3-5.4 times its greatest width. Hind tibiae without
outer apical spine, outer margin with with 11-13, inner margin with
12-14 spines. Mesosternum densely punctate; at its narrowest, interlobar
mesosternal space slightly greater than its length. Metasternum
densely punctate; its greatest width distinctly less than combined

or slightly exceeds its greatest width. Cerci extend slightly beyond
apex of supra-anal plate, slightly bent inwards, in profile narrow,
medially compressed; toward base markedly, toward rounded apex slightly
expanded greatest width of cercus at base 1.5-2 times greatest width
of apical widening of cercus; length of cercus 3-3.25 times its
maximum width. Basic coloring yellow-green, brilliant. Body with

♂, larger. Antennae almost reach base of hind femora. Length of

tibia 10-11 spined, inner margin 11-13 spined. At its narrowest,
interlobar mesosternal space 1.5 times its length. Maximal metasternal
width equals combined length of meso- and metasternum. Coloring
as in ♂, dull. Black lateral longitudinal stripes of body reach
only 1st abdominal tergite. Head green dorsally. Hind femora with
slightly darkened distal end. Hind tibiae with slightly darkened
base. Length of body ♂ 21.2-22.6, ♀ 25.7-28.8
