Description. Rather large for the genus. Fastigium verticis laterally compressed, dorsal surface very faintly furrowed, apex obtusely rounded. Frons shining with hardly any impressed dots. Pronotum semi-cylindrical, apical area of disc almost flat and shouldered; transverse sulcus weak, interrupted in midline; anterior margin broadly rounded but slightly concave in middle; posterior margin faintly rounded, almost subtruncate; ventral margin descending backwards, rounded below apical callus and afterwards ascending; humeral sinus faintly indicated. Tegmen long and narrow, surpassing middle of stretched hind tibia. Prosternum with 2 very faint, hardly visible tubercles. Meso- and metasternal lobes rounded; medial plate with an obtuse conus at each posterior angle. Mesocoxa with ventral internal projection rather long (less so on postcoxa), dorsal-anterior margin with a weak, obtuse-angular projection. Femora with the following number of spines on ventral margins: fore femur 7–8 external, 5–7 internal; mid femur 7–8 external, 3–4 internal near base; hind femur 12–15 external, 12–16 internal (the basal spines very tiny). Knee lobes of fore femur obtuse on external, spinose on internal side; of mid femur obtuse on external, triangular but apex obtuse on internal side; of hind femur bi-spinose on both sides. hind tibia with 1 dorsal and 2 ventral apical spurs on each side. Male. Stridulatory file with circa 122–136 teeth. Tenth tergite prolonged behind; hind margin roundly incised in middle between two short obtuse-angular lobes; setose in central and apical areas. Epiproct angularly rounded, with a Y-shaped carina between disc and sloping lateral area. Paraprocts with apical projections rather long, finger-shaped, curved dorsad. Cerci slightly curved mediad; dorsal external area rounded, ventral internal area flattened or little concave; with a large, depressed, about triangular internal projection in circa middle of cercus length terminating into an obtuse conus, and also with an elongate-conical, S-shaped ventral apical process; very apex of main cercus trunk rounded. Subgenital plate with sloping lateral area rather low; lateral margins carinated, disc with faintly rounded carinae before bases of styli; apex broad-roundly emarginated; styli rather long and stout. Titillators simple, apical parts fused, but very apices separate; connected with complex sheaths. Each apical part connected via a less sclerotised area with another apically rounded plate supporting the apical sheath on internal side. Sheaths bursa shaped, in dorsal-apical view ring-shaped embracing apices of titillators; somewhat darkened and granulose on external surface; internal surface hyaline; on ventral internal surface in apico-lateral areas with a curved row of long bristles, the longest of them surpassing the apex of the sheath. Laterally of the sheath the surrounding membranes forming another hyaline bursa. Membrane between bases of titillators with a button-shaped protuberance. Female. Subgenital plate elongate with converging lateral margins, divided from hind margin along mid-length into two lobes that are curved ventrad at end and reach about the elongate basal lobes of the ventral ovipositor valves.
