TIII apical spurs 3/3, longer on inner side; inner apical spurs: dorsal (iad) and median (iam) with same length, ventral the smallest (iav) (iad=iam>iav); outer apical spurs: median longest (oam), dorsal slightly shorter (oad), ventral almost same size of dorsal (oav) (oam>oad>oav). TIII apical and subapical spurs and spines light brown with apex medium brown ( Fig.14 A-D). Basitarsus dorsal spines 3/3, apical spine the longest; inner and outer apical spur same size, shorter than basitarsus. Basitarsus medium brown. Abdomen. Tergites slightly pubescent, medium brown. Male Morphology. FWs covering abdomen but not supra anal plate; PCu vein curved on anterior region, bearing a stridulatory file. Harp crossed by four diagonal veins, connected to CuPa, third and fourth connected apically; CuPb short; mirror divided on the middle by a curved vein ( Fig. 14A ). Lateral field with c. 13 parallel veins, perpendicular to dorsal field in lateral view. Supra anal plate bearing a median spine, posterior margin rounded; dark brown, median region black ( Fig. 14F, G ). Subgenital plate posterior margin straight, strongly pubescent; medium brown, bristles yellow ( Fig. 14H ). Male genitalia ( Figs 15 A-C, 16). Phallic complex not glandular (different from type species). Pseudepiphallus: pseudepiphallic sclerite general shape triangular in dorsal and ventral views, longer than in Adenophallusia legendrei n. sp. , slightly upcurved in lateral view, anterior margin concave in dorsal view. MLophi absent. LLophi slightly curved inwards in dorsal view; outer lobe longer than inner lobe; apex of outer lobe rounded, apex of inner lobe pointed. PsP almost same size as LLophi, not surpassing their tip; with two lobes, outer and inner; tips of outer lobe rounded, tip of inner lobe rounded; outer lobe longer than inner lobe. R elongated, shorter than pseudepiphallic sclerite, flattened laterally, anterior region curved inwards. Ectophallic invagination: EctAp almost same size as LLophi, almost straight in dorsal and ventral views; surpassing the anterior margin of pseudepiphallic sclerite. Arc not complete, flattened dorso-ventrally, median apex slightly curved posteriorly in dorsal and ventral views; ventral projections of ectophallic invagination short, as long as half Arc. EctF membranous, posterior margin rounded. Endophallus: EndSc weakly sclerotized, longer than wide, oval in dorsal and ventral views, anterior and posterior margins rounded. Female Morphology. Body larger than male, general coloration similar to male ( Fig. 14C, D ). FWs not covering the last three abdominal tergites; bearing six longitudinal veins. Supra anal plate anterior margin rounded, medium brown, laterals dark brown ( Fig. 14I ). Subgenital plate wider than long, posterior margin concave medially; light brown, covered by yellowish bristles ( Fig. 14J ). Ovipositor upcurved, medium to dark brown; apex tip pointed ( Fig. 14I, J ). Female genitalia ( Fig. 15 D-E). Copulatory papilla longer than wide, cylindrical, almost straight in lateral view, without ventral aperture; posterior half thinner than anterior, unpigmented; posterior margin straight, anterior margin convex in dorsal view.
