General color of nymphs is green, first two instars being light yellow green. Some of the first instar nymphs had the egg shell hanging on one or either of the metatarsi as they could not pull it completely out of the egg shell during eclosion. Regeneration of legs lost during early nymphal instars was observed, the regenerated appendage being much shorter than the normal ones. Older nymphs and adults dropped down when disturbed. Females jumped down from the plant when approached with an unfurled black umbrella. Jumping is rarely reported in phasmids, however, a
