Bioacoustics of Subria crassicerca

Diagnostic description.— General characteristics as described above; very similar to S. scutellaris but distinctly larger. Tegmina surpassing apices of hind femora by about 1/5 of their length. Male pronotum with metazona expanded, entirely or almost entirely covering stridulatory apparatus ( Figs. 33 D, 33F). Stridulatory file of male weakly curved, 2.14 mm long, with 202 (n=1) wide and thin teeth, maximum width of file 141 μm ( Fig. 50 H); teeth of file uniform in thickness, evenly spaced and smoothly narrowing towards proximal end. Male cercus weakly incurved, nearly as thick as long, with large apical spine ( Fig. 38 F); apices of titillators expanded and flattened, with several large teeth ( Fig. 33 G). Ovipositor distinctly curved upwards and clearly widened midlength, slightly longer than half of hind femur (ratio ovipositor/hind femur 0.64-0.75). Coloration .— General coloration straw brown to chestnut brown, with wide, dark band extending across the top of the head, pronotum, and posterior edges of tegmina; tegmina with irregularly distributed, small, diffused darker spots; outer pagina of hind femur with distinct reticulate pattern. No green form is known for this species. Measurements .— Table 25 . Bioacoustics.— Song unknown.
