FIGURE A–B. Leptoteratura (Rhinoteratura) lamellatus Mao et Shi View in CoL , sp. nov. A, Holotype (lateral view); B, Paratype (lateral view). Fig. C–D Leptoteratura (Leptoteratura) albicorne (Motschulsky, 1866) View in CoL C, Male (lateral view); D, Female (lateral view).

Redescription of male. Fastigium of vertex flat, triangular. Apical segment of maxillary palpi a little shorter than subapical one, distally inflated. Disc of pronotum flat, lateral carina distinct. Lateral lobes of pronotum longer than high (length 1.4 mm, height 1.0 mm), humeral sinus rather weak. Tegmina and hind wings long, distinctly surpassing apices of posterior femora. Tenth abdominal tergite transversely widened, with strongly concaved posterior margin. Cerci asymmetrical, arched, with dorsal spines at base, right one laterally flatten. Left cercus with a long and stout spine at base, distally hooked, on it with some small ventral teeth; right cercus with two dorsal lobes. Subapical portion separated into several lobes on both cerci. Subgenital plate subtrapezoid, styli on subgenital plate rather short. Genitalia entirely membranous.

Redescription of female. Body similar to female. Cerci rather thin and long. Ovipositor curved dorsally in distal half, ventral valves without apical hooks but blunt.

Coloration Body light green. Compound eyes yellowish brown. Pronotum with two longitudinal yellowish stripes along lateral sides.
