Head pentagonal in shape; juxtaocular tubercles and vertex almost at the same level, forming a continuous edge, making the vertex slightly convex; frontal shield transversal, width approximately 4.66 times greater than length. Pronotum slender, supracoxal dilation weakly developed; lateral edges of the prozone almost parallel. Front femora with 3 discoidal and 5-6 external spines. Male: meso- and metathoracic wings well developed, hyaline and colorless, with iridescent reflections. Female: mesothoracic wing opaque; costal area covered with a white, dusty pigmentation, remaining of wing green; metathoracic wings squarish, anal area opaque, brightly colored from yellow to orange. Cerci 14-segmented. Male genitalia: ventral phallomere with an elongated and pointed lateral process; anterior process of the left dorsal phallomere curved and simple.

(5ES/4DS). The number of discoidal and external spines of the fore femora is normally used as a diagnostic character in mantid taxonomy at different hierarchical levels. However, the discoidal spine character seems to be more reliable at the genus level because it is well conserved, unlike the number of external spines, which can show variability. For instance, the two new species of
