Account

What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

description · Plazi

Description. Pronotum subrugose or rugose along margins and eventually in midline, subsmooth or shining in remaining areas ( Figs. 40, 44 ); hind margin truncate or faintly concave. Fully winged to slightly brachypterous; tegmina often surpassing hind knees, margins tapering towards apex or fore margin constricted in apical half or apical third; dorsal area behind stridulatory area very narrow ( Figs. 1–3 , 14–16 ). Prosternum with two spines that are little shorter than fore coxa, rarely only half as long ( Fig. 48 ). Mesosternal lobes acute-angular, conical or subspinose; metasternal lobes obtuse-angular, rounded or short-conical; median plate with a spine or conical projection at both hind angles ( Fig. 48 ). Fore tibia in cross-section triangular except in tympanal area and at very apex ( Figs. 12 , 20 , 27 ). Male. Characters of the genus. Female. Ovipositor sabre-shaped, slightly curved and with converging margins in apical area; margins entire, apex acute ( Figs. 541–542, 544 ). Coloration. Face between compound eyes always with a black or dark brown band including antennal scrobae ( Figs. 19–24 , 27 ).

diagnosis · Plazi

Diagnosis. Differs from Pseudonicsara s.str. by (1) the fore tibia, which is triangular but quadrangular in apical quarter ( Fig. 26 ); (2) the strongly shining, almost smooth pronotum ( Fig. 46 ); (3) the hind margin of male pronotum being convex, little covering base of stridulatory area ( Figs. 42, 46 ); (4) the longer and broader tegmina ( Figs. 8 , 18 ); (5) the shape of the ovipositor, which has the margins not converging and is curved in basal two thirds, substraight in apical third ( Figs. 18 , 545 ).

Description. Characters of the genus; additional: Pronotum shining, subsmooth throughout; hind margin slightly convex; auditory swelling distinct ( Figs. 42, 46 ). Prosternal spines variable, more than half as long as the fore coxa or reduced to small tubercles. Knee lobes of hind femur bi-spinose or uni-spinose. Fore tibia in cross-section triangular but in apical quarter quadrangular with rounded dorsal angles ( Fig. 26 ). Male. Pronotum with hind margin rounded, covering base of the stridulatory apparatus to a variable degree ( Figs. 42, 43 ). Epiproct only weakly furrowed. Paraproct with an obtuse projection of variable shape. Female. Ovipositor long, robust, rather regularly curved in basal two thirds, substraight in apical third ( Fig. 545 ).
