Redescription. Male. Stridulatory area of left tegmen long oval, 3.45 mm long, 1.85 mm wide ( Fig. 10 C); stridulatory file on underside of left tegmen concave and nearly straight, 1.54 mm long; teeth slightly dense in basal sixth; with 83–100 teeth ( Figs. 3 C, 11M); mirror long oval, 3.55 mm long, 1.91 mm wide ( Fig. 10 D). Tenth abdominal tergite with posterior margin slightly concave; epiproct small, triangular, apex rounded; cerci long, surpassing apex of subgenital plate ( Fig. 7 J); baso-internal side expanded; strongly incurved in apical third and bulging on external side; apex with a wide, slightly curved, sclerotized tooth ( Fig. 7 L). Phallus with three pairs of complex sclerites: lateral sclerites rather short, curved inwards, apical margin denticulate; medial sclerites divided into 2 parts: dorsal parts stout and short, apex covered with denticles, ventral part narrow and long, apical margin denticulate. Subgenital plate curved dorsally in middle; basal part broad, medial area nearly equal width with apical part, apico-lateral margins parallel, posterior margin excised triangularly, apical lobes angular ( Fig. 7 K).
