Adults known from spring through to autumn. Stridulatory file. Fig. 20F .The file comprises 21 teeth, those at the proximal end peg-like, those beyond lamellar. Song. Unknown. Recognition. Brown colouration similar to that found in Australiagraecia species. Males are distinctive in the heavy L-shaped cercus and the arrow-shaped extension of the tenth tergite ( Fig. 11D ).

Differential Diagnosis. Male. ( Fig. 11A ) Antenna about twice the length of the body. Eye ovoid, large for size of head. Hind tibia armed dorsally with numerous spines, some alternating in lengths; apex with a pair of small spurs, positioned somewhat subapically, ventral surface with fewer spines along the entire length of the tibia, apex armed with a pair of much larger spurs. Prothorax with a pair of short, widely spaced pegs; meso- and metathorax with a pair of short erect pegs. Tegmen short ( Fig. 11A ); stridulatory file ( Fig. 20F ) positioned on a blister ( Fig. 11G ). Cercus heavy, “L”-shaped, surface clothed with stiff long brown setae. Abdomen with tenth tergite with soft shallow median impression, hardly distinguished from rest of tergite; supra-anal plate broadly triangular ( Figs 11D, H ); paraprocts short, barely protruding; phallic complex almost wholly membranous, base with a poorly defined somewhat triangular sclerite on each side ( Fig. 11H ). Subgenital plate much longer than broad, with a shallow Vshaped median incision, style elongate, much longer than one side of median incision ( Fig. 11E ). Phallic complex with minute sclerites at base ( Fig. 11K ). Female. differs from male in following cercus very elongate, clothed with long, dark brown setae; supra-anal plate triangular, poorly defined. Subgenital plate ( Fig. 11I ) broader than long, sides carinate, apex with a shallow U-shaped median incision. Ovipositor much longer the body ( Table 3 ), gracefully upcurved; blister at base caudally obtuse. Colouration. Colour and pattern more like that of Australiagraecia species (see p. 8, Figs. 2A , 4A ). Longitudinal stripe on pronotum broader and less intense. Colour and pattern of female faded but similar.
