description · Plazi

Male: Body small and robust; light green or yellow with a dorsal longitudinal brown band. Head: fastigium compressed laterally, dorsally subrectangular, not surpassing the first antennal segment; ventral side of fastigium of vertex rounded, hardly protruding over the separation with frontal fastigium; frons weakly convex; eyes large, spherical and bulging outwards. Tegmina and wings: tegmina shorter than hind wings, apex rounded; wings surpassing the hind femur in situ ; dorsal surface of pronotum smooth, concave with anterior and posterior margin weakly concave; transverse section of pronotum cylindrical; lateral carinae absent; lateral lobes subtriangular with posterior margin almost straight; humeral sinus indistinct, anterior margin of lateral lobes convex. pronotal disc raised posteriorly posterior edge of lateral lobes slightly raised, elliptical area of thinner cuticle covering partially thoracic auditory spiracle; humeral sinus very weak; prosternum with a pair of spines; mesosternal lobes triangular; metasternal lobes more or less rounded; thoracic auditory spiracle oval, partially hidden under lateral lobe of pronotum. Stridulatory file with 28 teeth, file narrow and straight on both ends. Legs : genicular lobes of fore femora with two spines on inner side and a single spine on outer side; mid genicular lobes armed with a single spine on inner side and two spines on outer side; hind genicular lobes with two spines on both inner and outer side; fore coxae with a spine; all femora dorsally spineless; fore and mid femora ventrally unarmed; hind femora ventrally spineless on inner margin; 6 small, black spines on outer margin; an ovoid tympanum present on fore tibiae, the opening laterally side with a pair of small pits laterally just below the tympanum; fore and mid tibiae dorsally spineless; ventrally fore tibiae with 6 small spines on inner margin, 6 small spines on outer margin; mid tibiae ventrally with 6 small spines on inner margin, 6 small spines on outer margin; dorsally hind tibiae with variable number of black spines on inner margin outer margin; hind tibiae ventrally with 6 small spines on inner margin, 9 small spines on outer margin; single dorsal pair of spurs and two ventral pairs (outer large and inner being small) of spurs present on the apical region of hind tibiae. Abdomen: 10 th abdominal tergite broad; apical margin with a small median excision; apical margin triangularly rounded; supra-anal plate triangular with basal groove; subgenital plate elongate, apical margin with a median small V-shaped excision; styles short and cylindrical; apex blunt; cerci cylindrical, apices narrow and slightly rounded; internal tooth small at distal end. Female: Tenth abdominal tergite with a longitudinal median incision; supra-anal plate straight, with a basal groove in the middle; paraproct lobes large and exposed. Subgenital plate broader than long; apical margin blunt without any excision; cerci conical and straight; ovipositor more or less straight; half the body size, not surpassing the wings when straightened.

discussion · Plazi

Remarks: The new species Conocephalus ganderbali sp. nov. is characterised by its small and slender body size. The new species differs from other species in various morphological characters: shape of female subgenital plate, ovipositor; shape and number of teeth in male stridulatory file; male subgenital plate and cerci.
