Description. General. Whole body dark gray, pronotum reddish gray, appendages more maculated; at a glimpse, looks like an immature nymph due to the invisible tegmina hidden under the pronotum. Head. Head small and round, longer than height; eyes small, widely separated, interocular distance 4.2 times wider than the horizontal diameter of one eye; antennal scape as long as wide, as wide as the horizontal diameter of an antennal socket; fastigium of vertex 1.2 times wider than the horizontal diameter of an antennal socket; clypeus protruding anteriorly, higher than wide in anterior view, with median longitudinal furrow; maxillary palpus with five segments, the ratio of segments being 1:1:2:1.7:2 from base to apex. Thorax. Pronotum 1.5 times longer than wide in dorsal view, 2.5 times longer than head; anterior margin truncated, but posterior margin widely rounded, wider than anterior one; female pronotum as long as wide in dorsal view, 1.5 times longer than head. Wings. Tegmina micropterous, but invisible, almost hidden under pronotum, its hind margin rounded with pubescence; most venations vestigial, only three basic cubitus veins, media and radius hardly perceived; chordal veins and speculum obviously undeveloped; transparent, only lateral field and apical area weakly darkened; female without tegmina and wings. Legs. Fore tibia with a small, round, hardly discernable inner tympanum; hind femur three times longer than middle femur; middle tarsomeres small, rounded, depressed; hind tibia with numerous small spinules on inner and outer dorsal margins; largest inner apical spur as long as one-third of basitarsus; hind basitarsus three times longer than combined length of remaining two tarsomeres, with small spinules on both sides; inner apical spur as long as last tarsomere. Abdomen. Cercus shorter than hind femur, concolorous with body, without bright annulation; male supra-anal plate with smoothly curvate hind margin, its dorsal area with developed short hairs; paraproct with right-angled process, as long as basal width, along its margin with hairs; female subgenital plate roundly triangular, shorter than basal width, hind margin narrowly incised at apex, as wide as deep. Ovipositor. Ovipositor shiny brown, gently recurved, slightly shorter than hind femora; apex subapically swollen, without serration; dorsal valves with 3~4 ventral bristles.
Distribution. Korea, Jejudo Island.
Etymology. ‘ tamna ’ refers to an earlier name for Jejudo Island, which was used for many centuries in ancient Korea.
Remarks. This species is similar to Ectatoderus annulipedus ( Shiraki, 1911) from Taiwan, but newly characterized, as shown in Table 1, using the characters from Yang and Yen (2001a).
