If disturbed, live ♀♀ produce a stridulating sound, which is produced by scraping the rough basal portion of the alae by the down-curving posterior margin of the tegmina. The basal half of the prominent radial vein of the alae is dorsally covered with numerous very minute rasp-like tubercles, and together with the median and cubital vein forms a conspicuous more or less oval, sub-basal membrane or typhanal area, which is of a considerably thinner diameter than the rest of the costal region. In scraping these rasps by the sharp and hard posterior edge of the tegmina, a rustling sound is produced that is presumably increased by vibration of the tympanal area of the alae. In addition, the convex and dome-like shape of the tegmina may serve to increase the sound by resonance. This stridulating sound has so far only been reported to be produced by ♀♀, but if the alae of ♂♂ are spread a similar but much more slight sound can be observed. As in ♀♀ the radial vein of the alae is very prominent in its basal portion and covered with the same rasp-like tubercles, but interestingly no tympanal area is developed, perhaps the reason why the sound is by far not as loud as in ♀♀.

are typical for having the anal region of a conspicuously convex contour. This makes the conventional spreading of the wings in preserved specimens almost impossible, due to the outer margin curves increasingly downward as the wing is opened. This has already been pointed out by Rehn (1957: 188, footnote 9).

). On the probasisternum they are formed by a conspicuous, convex and slightly transverse, white hump which dorsally bears numerous minute, cone-like evaginations each of which has a central pit or hollow. These evaginations are circular in cross-section, pale to mid brown basally and dark brown at the apex. Occasionally, there are two further, much smaller sensory areas interior of the two large outer ones. The prominent sensory area of the profurcasternum is of a slightly different structure, being formed by an oval, central cluster of rounded, whitish granules each of which bear a cluster of 26 of the same cone-like evaginations seen on the sensory areas of the probasisternum (

). The function of these sensory areas is still unknown, but due to the central hollow seen in each of the numerous small evaginations, they appear to serve as tactile or olfactory organs. An ultrastructural study of these organs appears necessary for any broader discussion (Bradler, 2009: 32).
