Notes. This species differs from all described Anisopleura species by the presence of two long processes on the posterior lobe of prothorax, both in male (Fig. 1a) and female (Fig. 1d, f, g). The female is described here for the first time.

Description of female. Posterior lobe of prothorax with two processes as in the male (Fig. 1d, f, g). The color pattern of head, thorax and legs is as in the male (Fig. 1d, e), apart from the antehumeral stripe, the anterior end of which has an oval shape with a dark core and which tapers off earlier towards the posterior end of mesepisternum (Fig. 1d). Wings (Fig. 1h) are hyaline with black venation. The number of Ax is 18–19 in both wings. Abdomen (Fig. 1d) is black with pale yellowish lateral markings on abdominal segments as follows: S1–2 have a large oblong marking; S3–7 have an oval anterior marking, and a thin stripe running along the lateral suture, becoming thinner towards their posterior ends; S8 is black with a small oval spot near posterior margin; and S9–10 are wholly black. Ovipositor black, thick and robust as in Fig. 1d.
