Figure 36. Lycocercus pictus Handlirsch; prothorax, basal part of fore 
wing, fragment of fore leg (1) and beak (b). Holotype. 
Fore wing: 69 mm long, 22 mm broad, the wing uniformly broad 
in the proximal half. Anterior margin very slightly concave, posterior 
margin with a slight concavity also in the apical third ; apex directed 
posteriorly, rounded. Precostal strip reaching to the end of the first 
third; subcostal area relatively narrow. Rs with 6 branches, mostly 
forked; MP forked 9 times; Cu dividing very distally, shortly before 
the origin of Rs; CuP as in Homoioptera , with a few terminal 
branches. Anal area very large, with 8 richly forked branches arising 
from separate stems. Cross veins dense, rather regular, sometimes 
connected. 
Body structure: beak probably long (about 2.5 cm). Prothoracic 
lobes large, high on pronotum, their posterior margins corresponding 
to the posterior edge of the prothorax. Prothorax relatively long with 
median line. Legs longer than in goldenhergi, apparently with long 
tibia. 
Lycocercus pictus differs from goldenhergi by the several venational 
traits and body structures already noted.
