Labium with first and second visible segments stout, third visible segment slender and pointed, second visible segment longest. Metapleural sulcus bicarinate in macropterous form, either indistinctly bicarinate or unicarinate in brachypterous and micropterous forms, close to lateral margin of supporting sclerite, curved entirely. Fore femur strong, much thicker than mid and hind femora; fore and mid tibiae with fossula spongiosa well developed, fore tibia with fossula spongiosa occupying at least half of tibial length, apical prolongation of fossula spongiosa long, distinctly surpassing apex of fore tibia. Hemelytra fully developed (macropterous individuals) or reduced to greatly reduced (brachypterous to micropterous individuals). Male sternum VII with or without a well-developed extragenital structure. Pygophore oval in ventral view, with a median process. Paramere broad and usually subtriangular.
