Measurements . Body length: 34.0; pronotum length: 6.5; hind femur: 31.0; tegmina length: 42.30; tegmina width: 15.1–23.4; tegmina length/width: 2.0–2.8; tegmina width/pronotum length: 2.3. Characters . A . latifolia is a species of medium size (body length ♂ 32 mm , ♀ 35 mm ) ( Fig. 26 ). Karsch (1890) described both sexes, later Sjöstedt (1902) recorded one female from Itoki ( Cameroon ). Bolívar (1906) reported one female from Fernando Póo ( Equatorial Guinea ) and other specimens from Cameroon , and Griffini (1908) listed both sexes from Mukonje Farm ( Cameroon ). A . latifolia is very distinctive because of its very wide, and rounded leaf-like tegmina. Two black spots at the base of the tegmina or a black stripe are typical. Further the veins of the tegmina form several large hexagons in which a small black spot is positioned centrally in most specimens. The antennae are thin and white-black annulate, about 1.5 times of the body length. The stridulatory area of A . latifolia males is callous and very short. Fore femora with 5–6 inner ventral spines, mid femora with outer ventral 0–5, and hind femora with 6–8 inner and 2–8 outer ventral dark-tipped spines. The male cerci are stout and hairy, and have almost the same size from base to apex; apically a sclerotized ridge is present ( Fig. 90 ). Styli are absent. Lateral lobes of the ovipositor have a pointed protuberance, similar to those of A . marmorata and A . retinervis .
