Bioacoustics. Tegmina ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 ), stridulatory file ( Table 1 View TABLE 1 ), and spectrum of the song ( Fig. 6 View FIGURE 6 ) do not show large differences to the typical Hetrodini View in CoL pattern. The calling song consists of a long, uninterrupted trill (song type A) with a SRR of about 22 Hz ( Fig. 10G View FIGURE 10 ; see Table 2 View TABLE 2 ).
Genitalia. The genitalic sclerites are similar to that of S. stettinensis View in CoL . However, the lateral sclerites are even larger than in this species and the titillator is pointed at the tip ( Fig. 11D View FIGURE 11 ).
Chromosomes: 2n = 24 (22 +XY), FN = 24; pair 1–11 and both sex chromosomes acrocentric [4 males described earlier ( Warchałowska-Śliwa et al. 2015: CH 7354, CH 7525, CH 7626, CH 7699)]; thin C-positive paracentromeric bands in all chromosomes and an interstitial one on the long pair and the neo-Y chromosome.
