Uniformly green with pair of light white to yellowish line starting on face, running through eyes and lateral over disc of pronotum ( Fig. 8 ). Head and antennae : Scapus green, antennae dark, very thin and not surpassing folded tegmina. Fastigium of vertex about 2.5 times as wide as scapus of antenna. Fastigium of vertex meeting equally broad fastigium of frons along well developed horizontal line with shallow median sulcus; face with sharp frontogenal carinae giving face triangular shape; eyes typical for Eurycorypha , elongate and oval, green.

Stridulatory file as in Fig. 9 D , slightly sinuous. Legs : Fore coxa with spine. Fore, mid and hind femora on outer side with few broad-based short spines. Hind tibiae with four rows of densely set short spines and three slender apical spurs on each side. Abdomen : Light green without any pattern. Last abdominal tergite differentiated into two stout processes, diverging from each other and each ending in two stout apices ( Fig. 9 A, C ); ventrally another bi-dentate process is present ( Fig. 9 B ). Subgenital plate of normal shape, posterior margin broadly ushaped incised ( Fig. 9 B ). Measurements (mm).—Male (N = 1). Body length 23. Median length of pronotum 5.5. Posterior femur length 14.8. Length of tegmina 32. Width of tegmina 10. Female. Unknown.
