Figures 252-256 
Type-species: Tettigonia solitaris Signoret. 
Length 8.0-9.5 mm. 
Head moderately produced, median length of crown varying from slightly 
less than six-tenths to slightly more than seven-tenths interocular width and 
from slightly more than one-third to slightly less than one-half transocular 
width, anterior margin broadly rounded in dorsal view, without a carina at 
transition from crown to face, ocelli located on a line between anterior eye 
angles, each approximately equidistant from adjacent anterior eye angle and 
median line of crown, crown with or without a transverse concavity across 
ocelli, without a median fovea and without sculpturing or setae, lateral clypeal 
sutures extending onto crown and attaining ocelli; antennal ledges not pro- 
tuberant, in lateral view with anterior margins oblique and varying (intra- 
specifically) from convex to rectilinear; clypeus not or only very slightly flat- 
tened medially, muscle impressions not very distinct, transclypeal suture ob- 
solete medially, clypellus not produced, in profile with contour of its lower 
portion continuing that of remainder of face. 
Thorax with pronotal width greater than transocular width of head, lateral 
margins convergent anteriorly, dorsopleural carinae complete, posterior 
margin concave, disk obscurely and sparsely punctulate, without distinct 
pubescence; scutellum not striate behind transverse sulcus. Forewing with 
membrane present, varying interspecifically in extent, veins not distinct, not 
elevated, with four apical cells of which base of fourth is more proximal than 
base of third, without an anteapical plexus of veins, texture coriaceous and 
without sculpturing; forewings of female in rest position exceeding apex of ovi- 
positor. Hindleg with femoral setal formula 2:1:1, length of first tarsomere 
equal to or slightly greater than combined length of two more distal tar- 
someres and with very weak biseriate microsetae on plantar surface. 
Male genitalia: Pygofer narrow and strongly produced posteriorly, posterior 
margin often bearing processes varying interspecifically, setae relatively few 
and occurring on apical half of pygofer. Plates slender, elongate triangular, 
extending posteriorly as far as or farther than pygofer apex, each with uni- 
seriate macrosetae extending at least through apical half of plate. Style 
without preapical lobe. Connective short Y-shaped, not extending posteriorly 
nearly as far as style apices. Aedeagus symmetrical or nearly so, with shaft 
slender, curved gradually posterodorsally, usually without apical processes, 
usually with a pair of slender, acute processes arising at base of shaft, sym- 
metrical or not, of varying length intraspecifically. Paraphyses usually absent 
(vestigial in an undetermined species). 
Female abdominal sternum VII not strongly produced, posterior margin 
straight or slightly emarginate, with a broad very slight median projection. 
Dorsal membrane of genital chamber without sclerites. Ovipositor with 
valvulae II each expanded beyond basal curvature, dorsal margin of expand- 
ed portion bearing uniform subquadrate primary teeth, without secondaries,
