Description. Holotype , male. Head. Fastigium of vertex equal or slightly wider than half of scapus. Thorax. Pronotum short, slightly constricted in the middle, median sulcus located after the middle, cylindrical in prozona and somewhat raised in metazona, caudal margin of the disc concave, medial carina occurs as a yellowish line, disk bordered by large light lines slightly divergent in anterior and posterior margins constituting roughly as “) (“ shape; paranotal margin almost straight along prozona and oblique along metazona. Tegmina short, extending beyond the posterior margin of pronotum, stridulatory vein not totally covered by pronotum; stridulatory file with ca. 55 teeth. Male terminalia . Cercus cylindrical, gradually tapering toward apex, curvature is more prominent apically, incurved roughly as L-shaped, with a flattened apex and with 4–5 distinguishable denticles on external margin. Subgenital plate wider than long, with a wide roughly quadrangular median processes apically, distal margin is quadrangularly concave.
remarks · Plazi
Remarks. Currently, the new species, P. anisozonatus sp. nov. , is known only from the type locality, adjacent to that of P. isozonatus , but separated by a lowland valley. Although the samples constituting the type specimens of the new species were reported as P. isozonatus and these two species show sister group relationship, signs from genetic data suggest that they are two independent evolutionary and reproductive units and there are considerable phenotypic differences, especially in male calling songs, supporting their distinctiveness.
diagnosis · Plazi
Diagnosis. The new species, P. anisozonatus sp. nov. , shows sister group relationship with P. isozonatus , and each of them was consistently suggested as a distinct species by all species delimitation tests. The pair of P. isozonatus / P. anisozonatus sp. nov. can easily be distinguished by traditionally used phenotypic characters (Table 3 and Fig. 13 ). The typical cercus with flattened apex and prominent denticles located externally (no denticle on the internal side of apex), and male subgenital plate wider than long, are the most prominent characters distinguishing P. anisozonatus sp. nov. from P. isozonatus . Apart from the cercus and subgenital plate of the male, P. anisozonatus sp. nov. can be distinguished from P. isozonatus also by its male song – the syllable duration being 30.57 (27–34) ms in the first, while 13.6 (10–19) ms (Konya-Taşkent) or 6.46 (2–8) ms (Niğde-Çamardı) in the second (Table 3 ). Along with these phenotypic characters, there are six mutations, detected in the mitochondrial concatenated matrix by applying a PAUP analysis (File S 1), specific to the ancestral node of P. anisozonatus sp. nov. , which we considered as a diagnostic character of this species; 1730 (C → T), 1799 (A → G), 1917 (A → C), 1928 (T → C), 2118 (C → T), 2223 (C → T).
Song · Plazi
Song. Male song consists of short (9–14 ms) syllables of 10–13 impulses that are usually followed by one to four after-clicks, the complex syllable lasting 27–34 ms at ca. 28 ° C. The peak frequency spectrum lies between 35 and 50 kHz. Male song is exemplified in Figure 14 , and song measurements are provided in Table 3 .
