Yungasacris
Rehn, 1950
Diagnosis.
Coloration cream white, with diffuse pink patches, and black spots, mainly on the tegmina (
Fig. 23A
). Vertex smooth, sub-elevated, the distal contour rounded in lateral view. Hind femora ventrally armed from the mesal region to the apex with triangular lamellar spines. Tegmina exceeding apex of abdomen for more than half their length in males and about half their length in females, outline elongate or lanceolate, slightly narrowed in distal half, apical margin obliquely truncate (
Fig. 23A
). Male cerci with a thick base and an elongated, compressed, and subcultriform prolongation, and a flattened and triangular process on the internal side, mesial region concave and with an excavated appearance (
Figs. 23B–H
). Ovipositor twice as long as the pronotal disc, uniformly curved, in distal region dorsal and ventral margins serrulate and laterally with numerous spinules, apex narrowly rounded.

Key to species and subspecies of
Yungasacris
1. Male tegmina broad in proximal half, with long stridulatory vein and rather wide mirror; male cerci long, with short basal part (proximal to base of inner branch), with short widened part (distal of base of inner branch), and with very long remaining part (this part narrow and longer than previous parts together......................................................
2 Male
tegmina clearly narrower in proximal half, with distinctly shorter stridulatory vein and narrower mirror; male cerci diverse in length, with clearly longer basal or middle (widened) parts, and narrow remaining part shorter................. 3
2. Pronotal disc with a pair of dark oblique posterior stripes reaching to middle; male cerci in lateral view with widened sub-basal part longer than the more distal part (
Fig. 23C
); male subgenital plate with short but well-developed styli and shallow emargination between them.................................................................
Y. grata grata
Rehn, 1950
Pronotal disc with a pair of dark oblique posterior stripes not reaching middle; male cerci in lateral view with widened subbasal part not longer than more distal part (
Fig. 23D
); male subgenital plate without distinct styli and with rather deep emargination.........................................................................
Y. grata rara
Gorochov, 2013
3. Pronotum without distinct traces of dark markings; male cerci with basal part (proximal to base of inner branch) shorter than widened middle part, with narrow distal part almost equal to middle part in length, and in lateral view with dorsal subbasal convexity (
Figs. 23E, F
)............................................................
Y. peruviana
Rehn, 1950
Pronotum
with distinct dark marks; male cerci with basal part (proximal to base of inner branch) longer than widened middle part, with narrow distal part distinctly longer than middle part (
Fig. 23G
), and in profile without any dorsal convexity in subbasal part (
Fig. 23H
)..............................................
Y. multa
