Measurements (mm). Male. BOdy: 18.0–18.5; bOdy with wings: 50.0–50.4; prOnOtum: 4.6–4.7; tegmen length: 36.5–37.5; tegmen width: 8.5–8.7; prOfemur: 9.8–10.0; mesOfemur: 12.6–13.2; pOstfemur: 27.5–28.5. Etymology. The name Of new species refers tO the stridulatOry area Of left tegmen with characteristic spOt. Remarks. The new species resembles Elimaea ( Rhaebelimaea ) schenklingi Karny, 1915 in male subgential plate with a deep apical nOtch, and lateral lObes with apices rOunded, but it differs frOm the latter in Rs branching behind the middle Of tegmina; male epiprOct with basal area brOad, apical half narrOw; stridulatOry area with a blOck Of brOwn spOt behind stridulatOry vein Of left tegmen, the bases Of left and right tegmina with a dark brOwn mark; genitalia with characteristic structure.
