The two species described below are very similar and males can only be distinguished by the characteristics of the stridulatory file. However, the combination of strong differences between the size of the ovipositor in females of the two species, combined with the differences in the structure of the stridulatory file and minor differences in male genitalia, indicates the presence of two distinct species. Unfortunately, no sound recordings are available for the new species, as it is likely that their availability would confirm the separate status of the two populations.
