Male: (Fig. 196) Moderately large; total length 14.03-15.05 mm (mean 15.03 mm, Suppl. material 2); robust. COLORATION: Entire surface greenish-brown, lateral surfaces lighter; dark brown area on hemelytron adjacent to quadrate cell, inversely v-shaped. VESTITURE: Sparsely setose. Similar to that in
<taxonomicName lsidName="Z. umbraculus" pageId="0" pageNumber="8150" rank="species" species="umbraculus">Z. umbraculus</taxonomicName>
. STRUCTURE: Head: Cylindrical, short, somewhat robust, L/W = 1.93. Postocular lobe short; in dorsal view distinctly narrowing through anterior 1/2, posterior 1/2 constant, tube-like. Eye prominent; lateral margin much wider than postocular lobe; dorsal margin removed from postocular transverse groove, ventral margin attaining ventral surface of head in lateral view; ocellus situated on prominent elevation. Labium: I: II: III = 1: 1.29: 0.32. Basiflagellomere diameter slightly larger than that of pedicel. Thorax: Collar indistinct; anterolateral angle rounded, without projection; medial longitudinal sulcus evident only on posterior 1/2, deepening to transverse sulcus of pronotum. Posterior pronotal lobe rugulose; disc elevated above humeral angle, surface strongly convex as viewed from posterior angle; humeral angle armed, with short dentate processes. Scutellum moderately long; apex angulate, slightly projected in some specimens. Legs: Moderately robust. Hemelytron: Slightly surpassing apex of abdomen, not more than length of abdominal segment seven; quadrate cell small; Cu and M of cubital cell subparallel, converging only anteriorly. GENITALIA: (Fig. 197) Pygophore: Rounded; not expanded laterally in dorsal view. Medial process cylindrical; base broad; moderately long; straight; posteriorly directed; apex in posterior view rounded, with minute sharp lateral projections. Paramere: Cylindrical; not reaching apex of medial process; directed posteriad; gradually thickened towards apex; not distinctly curved. Phallus: Dorsal phallothecal sclerite elongated; lateral margins subparallel; apical portion of phallothecal sclerite not distinctly tapered, slightly convex; apex truncate; posterior margin of foramen broadly angulate. Struts attached to dorsal phallothecal sclerite; separate. Basal plate arm moderately robust; mostly separate, in contact before bridge; converging; in lateral view very slightly curved; bridge very short; extension of basal plate moderate, expanded onto arm.

Recognized by the body surface greenish-brown; the area of hemelytron adjacent to the quadrate cell dark brown, inversely U-shaped in appearance; the head short and stout (L/W=&lt;2.1); the ocellus situated on conspicuous elevation (the same set of characters are also present in
