New genera, species and records of Afrotropical Phaneropterinae (Orthoptera, Tettigoniidae) preserved at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Bruxelles Author Massa, Bruno text Zootaxa 2017 2017-11-30 4358 3 401 429 journal article 31274 10.11646/zootaxa.4358.3.1 aaba7ff9-05cc-4f7d-aea1-9b3d4dafa6b3 1175-5326 1068632 25796F05-AAAB-4D1E-B09E-9138635F1D56 Tribe Pardalotini Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878 The genus Pardalota Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1878 may be recognized from Poecilogramma Karsch, 1887 by the less poorly developed fastigium of the vertex, that is a little wider than in Poecilogramma ( Ragge 1980 ) (compare Fig. 7E with 9E). In addition, the strikingly variegated colour of Pardalota includes more or less wide round spots, while that of Poecilogramma consists of colored stripes. Another character that allows to separate the two genera is the shape of cerci, that are pointed and incurved in Pardalota , flat or rounded in Poecilogramma (compare Figs 7B, 7D, 7G with 9C, 9F).
