gin slightly arcuate proximad, straight distad, sutural margin straight 

 with a slight arcuation proximad, apex roimded with the costal section 

 more arcuate than the sutural; mediastine vein very short, median 

 vein issuing slightly proximad of the middle of the tegmen, bifurcate. 

 Wings extending beyond the tegmina a distance slightly greater than 

 the length of the pronotum; sutural margin straight, costal margin 

 arcuate. Supra-anal plate not exceeding the preceding abdominal 

 segment in length, transverse, margin truncate; cerci rather thick, 

 blunt, with a strong curve mesad ; subgenital plate longitudinal^with a

 on the dorsal face. Caudal femora slightly more than 

 three times the length of the head and pronotum, 

 inflated proximad and regularly decreasing to the 

 slender distal two-fifths ; caudal tibiae slightly longer 

 than the femora, the dorsal margins strongly and 

 closely spined, ventral margins with the spines much 

 fewer, smaller and ad pressed.
