Pronotum slender, with weak supra-coxal dilation and almost parallel lateral margins. Fore femur with 4 posteroventral and 4 discoidal spines. Fore tibia with 5‒6 posteroventral spines. Meso- and metathoracic legs long, simple, with a genicular spine. Males mesopterous or apterous, females apterous. If winged, then both wings hyaline.
Distribution: India, China, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand ( Fig. 34 View FIGURE 34 ).
