Notes. This species probably does not belong to the genus Tegotettix . It is morphologically very different from other species of the genus. It remains a question if it belongs to Scelimenini . Further studies should assess its taxonomic position and whether it is more similar to Xistra or to Scelimenini genera, including Tegotettix . Günther (1938) also reported that T. corniculatus and T. sagittarius are much more similar to Xistra species. We leave the species in Tegotettix for now, until the revision of this genus and Xistra are published.
