Figure 10</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>Holotype ♂: "VIETNAM: Quang Nam, Tay Giang, Axan Mt, 1,300 meters: July 2017 (Coll RC 17-261)". Deposited in the Montreal Insectarium (IMQC).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This large species is presently only known from the singular holotype male (89.4 mm in length) from Central Vietnam. With such a large male we look forward to when the female is located as the female must also be significantly large and possibly larger than any of the presently known Cryptophyllium gen. nov. females.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females unknown. Males can be differentiated by the profemoral interior lobe which is marked by teeth which are uniform in size and spacing, a feature which no other known congenerics possess (Fig. 10B). Molecularly Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. is most closely related to Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. and shares several morphological similarities such as the large size, serrated profemoral exterior lobe, similar tegmina lengths, and a similar shape of the mesothorax and similar arrangement/sizing of the teeth (Fig. 10C). These species can be differentiated, as Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. have profemoral interior lobe teeth, which are unevenly sized and spaced (Fig. 61E), and a broad rounded abdomen and not a thin spade-like abdomen as in Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov.</p><p>An additional species morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. is Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov., which can also be found in Central Vietnam. Morphological similarities between these species are the thin spade-shaped abdomens, large sizes, and similar tegmina lengths. Although superficially they look similar with their large thin appearance, it is easy to differentiate the species when the details of the thorax are observed, as Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. has small numerous teeth throughout the mesopleura length (Fig. 10C) vs. Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov., which has four or five large tubercle-like teeth and smaller interspersed teeth between (Fig. 31A). Additionally, the exterior profemoral lobes differ in their serration as Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. has eight or nine sharply serrate teeth (Fig. 10B) vs. Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. which at most has four rounded, less prominent teeth (Fig. 31B).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Currently only known from the type locality in Central Vietnam: Quang Nam Province, Axan Mountain.</p><p>Male.</p><p>Coloration. Coloration description based on the single dried holotype specimen, not on living individuals which are likely a more vibrant green. Overall coloration is pale green with variable patches of tan throughout due to the drying of the specimen (Fig. 10A). Compound eyes are cherry red (Fig. 10C). The antennae, head, and thorax are tan (Fig. 10C). Abdominal segment V has a set of eye spots which are clearer and situated closer to the midline than the margin.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule slightly longer than wide, with a vertex that is weakly granular in a slightly longitudinal arrangement; posteromedial tubercle small but notable and slightly raised above the head capsule (Fig. 10C). Frontal convexity stout and finely pointed with two or three short setae near the apex. Compound eyes large but not overly bulbous, occupying&gt; ⅓ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 10C). Three ocelli are well-developed and located between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes. Antennal fields are slightly wider than, and approximately as long as the scapus. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 27 segments. The scapus and pedicellus are bare, all other segments are covered in dense, thin, pale setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide, and the terminal three segments have shorter setae which are denser than the other segments. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin gently concave and lateral margins that are nearly straight and converge to a straight posterior margin that is approximately half the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 10C). Anterior and lateral margins of the pronotum with distinct rims and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 10C). Face of the pronotum is marked by a smooth surface, distinct sagittal furrow, pit just posterior to the center, a moderate perpendicular furrow just anterior to the central pit, and two distinct pits along the anterior margin (Fig. 10C). Prosternum is nearly smooth, with only a slightly wrinkled surface. Mesosternum surface marked densely with prominent nodes, with the largest along the sagittal plane and more strongly on the anterior margin, posterior margin with less prominent and slightly smaller nodes. Prescutum longer than wide, with lateral margins slightly converging to the posterior which is slightly narrower than the anterior rim width (Fig. 10C). Lateral rims with ten or eleven small tubercles of varying sizes, none large or prominent, most approximately even in size and one or two not much more prominent than nodes (Fig. 10C). The surface of the prescutum is heavily granulose and rises slightly up to meet the prescutum crest (Fig. 10E). Prescutum crest along the sagittal plane with seven or eight nodes which are denser on the anterior and slightly wider spaced on the posterior (Fig. 10E). In addition to the granular surface there is shallow pitting along the lateral margins, but none very prominent (Fig. 10C). Prescutum anterior rim with a heavily granulose surface and no distinct central tubercle (Fig. 10E). Mesopleura narrow, gradually diverging from the anterior to the posterior (Fig. 10C). Lateral margin with four or five moderately sized tubercles throughout the length, and between six or seven smaller minor tubercles interspersed throughout (Fig. 10C). Face of the mesopleura slightly wrinkled and with two distinct pits, one on the anterior ⅓ and one on the posterior ⅓. Wings. Tegmina moderate length, extending slightly&gt; ½ through abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation (see Fig. 7B for general venation found in the Cryptophyllium gen. nov.): the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein and terminates the earliest, slightly&gt; ca. ⅓ of the way through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans nearly the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching just anterior to the middle and terminating just posterior to the middle of the wing, the second radius (R2) branches near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector (Rs) runs parallel and side by side with the media anterior until the posterior ⅕ of the tegmina, at which point the radial sector bends away from the media anterior and then terminates just shy of the tegmina apex. The media (M) spans the entire length of the tegmina, terminating at the wing apex as the media anterior (MA). The first media posterior (MP1) begins and terminates near the tegmina mid length followed by the second media posterior (MP2) which begins ca. ⅔ of the way through the tegmina length and terminates near the posterior quarter of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) runs through the wing surface angled towards the margin which it meets ca. ⅓ of the way through the tegmina length and then runs along the margin as the two media posterior veins then meet it and the cubitus eventually dissipates ca. ⅔ of the way through the tegmina length. The first anal (1A) vein runs subparallel to the cubitus until it meets it slightly&gt; ⅓ of the way through the tegmina length. Alae well developed in an oval fan configuration, reaching to the anterior margin of abdominal segment IX. Alae wing venation (see Fig. 7B for general venation found in the species of this genus): the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) spans ca. ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches slightly&gt; ⅖ of the way through into the radius 1 (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run nearly parallel through most of their length until they terminate at the wing apex near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅐ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other until the distal ⅐ of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing margin. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-7PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Abdomen general shape is a narrow spade. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of segment IV slightly diverging to the widest point with the remainder of segment IV parallel sided. Segments V-IX are uniformly converging slowly with straight margins to the terminal abdominal segment X which at first also converges slowly but then quickly tapers off to a blunt rounded apex. Genitalia. Poculum broad and rounded, ending in a straight margined apex that passes beyond the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 10D). Cerci long and slender, with ca. ½ of their length extending out from under the anal abdominal segment. The cerci are slightly cupped, covered in a granulose surface and numerous short setae throughout (Fig. 10D). Vomer broad and stout with straight sides evenly converging to the apex, which is armed with two upwards turning hooks, one ca. 2 × as wide and ⅓ longer than the other smaller hook adjacent to it. Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe a rounded arc, only slightly wider than the interior lobe (ca. 3 × the width of the profemoral shaft at its widest), and with the anterior half marked by eight or nine small but sharp anteriorly pointing teeth (Fig. 10B). Profemoral interior lobe rounded near the midline and then straight to the anterior margin, ca. 2½× as wide as the profemoral shaft at its widest. The profemoral interior lobe is marked with eight or nine small, serrate, anteriorly pointing teeth which are nearly uniform in size and spacing (Fig. 10B). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end but with the widest portion distal to the midline, and the widest point about as wide as the interior lobe or the mesofemoral shaft at its widest. The mesofemoral exterior lobe is marked with three or four small serrate teeth distal to the widest point, with the proximal portion of the lobe smooth. The mesofemoral interior lobe is approximately the same width as the exterior lobe, but more evenly weighted from end to end with the widest portion near the midline. The distal half is marked with nine small serrate teeth with those most distal slightly closer together than those near the middle. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation, and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with ten or eleven small serrate teeth on the distal half only. Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a smooth triangle slightly&gt; 2 × as wide as the protibial shaft, with the widest point just distal to the midline (Fig. 10B). Mesotibiae and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes completely.</p><p>Measurements of holotype male [mm]. Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 89.4, length/width of head 5.5/4.5, antennae 55.8, pronotum 4.5, mesonotum 5.8, length of tegmina 27.1, length of alae 63.7, greatest width of abdomen 21.6, profemora 19.6, mesofemora 15.6, metafemora 17.6, protibiae 12.4, mesotibiae 9.7, metatibiae 13.4.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Noun, Latin for "endowed with spirit". We felt that these incredible insects are so leaf-like in texture, color, and movement, they simply appear to be a leaf on a tree come to life and walking right out of a fantasy novel and therefore the full binomial translating to "hidden leaf endowed with spirit" was fitting.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/53CC67C870175165968AD28480EFC5C1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Figures 11, 12</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>Very few specimens are known. We examined the holotype female in the NHMUK "Holo-type. Ceylon. Athanysus, Westw. Phyllium Athanysus Westw, Ceylon. BMNH(E) #845230" (Fig. 11A) and a male in the OUMNH collection "P. Cryptophyllium athanysus, Westw. Ceylon. E Coll. (1830-73), W. W. Saunders., Purchased and, pres. '73 by Mrs. F. W. Hope." Greene (1906: fig. 1b, plate between page 220 and 221) illustrated a single female specimen as well as an egg (fig. 2b, page 221). We were unable to trace these specimens for proper examination. Besides these few specimens, we reviewed images of one live female (Fig. 12A, B) and one live male (Fig. 12C) from the Sinharaja Forest Reserve, but no other records&gt; are known to us.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This rare species has only had a number of instances over the years where preserved specimens were illustrated. Here we present the first known photographs of live male and female individuals observed on two different occasions, both within the Sinharaja Forest Reserve, Sri Lanka (Fig. 12).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females can be differentiated by the smaller size (the smallest known species of Cryptophyllium gen. nov., ca. 77.0 mm) and the fully developed exterior metatibial lobes, which span the entire metatibial shaft, and the weak but notable full mesotibial exterior lobes, which also span the entire length of the shaft (when there are exterior lobes present in the other Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species, they are small and restricted to the distal end of the shaft only). Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. females are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. and to Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. due to the anteriorly narrow mesopleura and the broad rounded profemoral exterior lobes. Additionally, Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. also has a tapered abdomen like Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. without distinct abdominal lobes on segment VII, which many Cryptophyllium species have. Both of these morphologically similar species can immediately be differentiated however by the lack of metatibial exterior lobes.</p><p>Males can also be differentiated from all other species by the presence of fully developed exterior metatibial lobes which span the entire metatibial shaft, as no other Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species are known to have such a feature. Male Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. are morphologically very similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. as they both have similar narrow abdominal shapes, similar profemoral morphology, and similar thorax shape and serration. Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. can be differentiated easily however by the presence of metatibial exterior lobes, which Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. lacks.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Sri Lanka. All old records&gt; simply state “Ceylon’’ as the location, but the two modern records&gt; we have come across were both from within the Sinharaja Forest Reserve on the southern end of the island (Fig. 12). Even Greene (1906) regarded this species as rarely encountered with most records&gt; belonging to the other phylliid species present on the island.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/FD7965C10ABE5CC29D3C500CF043194D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Vermeersch, I.G.:33.769" [RBINS- Phyllium -DNA sample 0008] (RBINS).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species, in true "cryptic leaf" fashion, was only recognized as unique when the molecular results were reviewed as morphologically it was hidden within the Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. males. Their morphological resemblance is uncanny and even with a series of males it is difficult to adequately differentiate these two species based on male morphology. Only the male Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. is known at present and therefore it is unknown if the female also morphologically resembles Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. or is morphologically more unique. Despite several expeditions to southern Vietnam by the RBINS expedition members, only one nymph female Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. has been collected to date, unfortunately she did not survive to adulthood (Fig. 13). With this species recorded from three Vietnamese provinces, we hope that as a widely ranging species the female can one day be identified and morphologically described.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females unknown. Males are morphologically very similar to Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. in their antennae length, profemoral interior lobe serration, protibial interior lobe shape, tegmina length, and their thorax shape and spination. The molecular results revealed however that this species was in fact not identical to Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. with which it shares a sympatric geographic range in central Vietnam and a striking morphological resemblance. Thankfully with the molecular analysis we were able to separate out these two species to allow us to see the subtle differences between them, which we originally thought to be simple morphological variation. The only consistent morphological differences we were able to locate between these species is that Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. tends to have an abdomen which is slightly more rounded (Fig. 59A), vs. Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. which has the abdomen ever so slightly spade-shaped (Fig. 14). Additionally, it appears as though Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. tend to be larger (79.8-89.0 mm) vs. Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. (61.9-69.5 mm), and the profemoral exterior lobes have slightly differing serration, with Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. having no teeth or up to five small teeth, vs. Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov., which tend to have seven or eight teeth.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Central and Southern Vietnam. Known from Quang Ngai, Thua Thien Hue, Da Nang, Gia Lai, Quang Nam, and Dak Nong Provinces.</p><p>Male.</p><p>Coloration. Living individuals are a more vibrant green, and our descriptions are only based on preserved specimens. Overall coloration pale green throughout with variable patches of yellow and tan coloration (Figs 14, 15). Compound eyes are slightly reddish to pink (Figs 14B, 15D). The antennae are yellow to orange in color. In all specimens examined there were no variable brown patches on the lobes of the legs as is sometimes common in male phylliids.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule approximately as long as wide, with a vertex that is irregularly lumpy and with small granulation throughout, and a posteromedial tubercle which is larger than any of the nodes on the head (Fig. 14B). Frontal convexity stout with sparse thin setae throughout the surface. Compound eyes large and bulbous, occupying ca. ⅖ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 14B). Between the compound eyes are three well-developed ocelli (Fig. 14B). Antennal fields approximately as wide and as long as the scapus. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 25 or 26 segments, all segments except the scapus and pedicellus and terminal four segments are covered in dense setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal four segments are covered in dense short setae and the scapus and pedicellus are nearly bare, lacking setae. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin slightly concave and lateral margins that are straight and converging to a straight posterior margin that is ca. ½ as wide as the anterior margin (Fig. 14B). Anterior and lateral margins of the pronotum have distinct rims, but the posterior margin has a weakly formed rim (Fig. 14B). Face of the pronotum is marked by a distinct pit in the center with prominent anterior and lateral furrows from this central pit, and the pronotum surface is marked with wrinkles throughout, but not prominent nodes (Fig. 14B). Prosternum surface is moderately granulose throughout, the mesosternum surface is mostly smooth with only small granulation along the sagittal plane which then continues onto the metasternum surface which has moderate granulation throughout (Fig. 15B). Prescutum ca. ⅓ longer than the anterior margin width, with lateral margins slightly converging to the posterior (Fig. 14B). Lateral margins lacking distinct tubercles, instead with granulation throughout giving them a rough appearance (Fig. 14B). Prescutum surface throughout with granulation, with smaller and tighter packed granulation along the lateral margins, and slightly larger nodes along the sagittal plane (Fig. 14B). Prescutum anterior margin distinct but not significantly raised, with a surface that is marked with minimal granulation. Mesopleura not notably wide, narrow near the anterior margin and then only gradually diverge for the remainder of their length (Fig. 14B). Lateral margin with five or six small tubercles throughout the length and several smaller minor tubercles interspersed throughout. Face of the mesopleura slightly wrinkled and with two faint divots, one near the anterior margin and one on the posterior ⅓ (Fig. 15E). Wings. Tegmina moderate length, extending ⅓ to ½ through abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates the earliest ca. ⅓ of the way through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length and terminating near the midline, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length, the second media posterior (MP2) branching near the midline, and the media anterior (MA) running to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching to the middle of abdominal segments VIII. Alae wing venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) is long, spanning ca. ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches ca. ⅓ of the way through into the first radius (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run gently diverging for most of their length and then converge at the apex of the wing where they terminate near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other throughout the wing until the distal ⅕ of the wing when the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing apex where they terminate near the radial sector. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-6PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Abdominal segment II with parallel margins, III through the anterior ⅓ of segment IV gradually diverging to the widest portion. The posterior of IV-V are parallel or slightly subparallel. Segments VI-X uniformly converging, giving the abdomen a spade-shaped appearance (Fig. 14C). Abdominal segment X distinctly longer than wide (Fig. 15F). Genitalia. Poculum broad, and ending in a rounded apex that slightly passes the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 14D). Cerci long and slender, extending from under the anal abdominal segment by slightly&gt; half of their length, surface slightly cupped and with a granulose surface with numerous short setae throughout (Fig. 14D). Vomer broad and stout with straight sides evenly converging to the apex, which is marked by two apical hooks, one slightly larger than the other (Fig. 5G). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe slightly thinner than the interior lobe, arcing end to end in a smoothly bending lobe which has a granular margin throughout and can range from lacking dentation to having four or five small serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe (Figs 14A, 15C). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular and marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with large looping gaps between these groups (Fig. 15A). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end, but is more heavily weighted toward the distal half which is slightly broader than the mesofemoral shaft width, and which is marked with 1-3 serrate teeth on the distal half only, and the proximal half is rather thin and lacks dentation. Mesofemoral interior lobe is about the same width as the mesofemoral shaft and arcs end to end, is slightly broader on the distal end and is marked with four or five small serrate teeth. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation, and has a straight margin hugging the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with seven or eight serrate teeth on the distal half only.

Only a single adult female was found (Fig. 16) while collecting at night in Phuoc Binh N.P.. The female was found on a shrub in a field that had been cleared of trees and planted with crops. The clearing of the forest had been done fairly recently as tree stumps were still present. In this area there was no adjacent old growth forest, only secondary forest nearby. The female was kept alive long enough to lay a series of fertilized eggs which were shared with expert phylliid breeder Tim Bollens (Belgium) who was able to rear a nice series of specimens and eventually share this species with other leaf insect breeder enthusiasts (Fig. 17).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically most similar to Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov., and Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. based on the general femoral lobe shapes, the broad rounded exterior profemoral lobe, and the thorax shape and spination. Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. have moderately long alae reaching onto abdominal segment IV that can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., which have shorter alae only reaching the anterior margin of abdominal segment III. The ventral surface of the antennae differentiates Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. from the other similar species as Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. have the ventral surface of segments VI, VII, and VIII flush (Fig. 6B) vs. Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. which have the ventral surface of antennal segments VI and VII projecting beyond segment VIII, giving the antennae a slight lamellate appearance (Fig. 6E).</p><p>Males are morphologically most similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov., Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov., Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. due to the femoral shape and spination, the length of antennae and alae, and thorax shape and spination. Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. can be differentiated by their narrower abdominal shape with a maximum width only 30-34% of the abdominal length, vs. the others which have an abdominal shape that is broadly elliptical or broadly spade-shaped with a maximum width ca. 38-45% of the abdominal length. Due to similarities in morphology and the intraspecific variation within Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov., we could not identify a reliable morphological feature for differentiation within the males. The female morphology does allow differentiation of these species, and of course molecular analysis (Fig. 4) allows reliable differentiation even between these variable and difficult to distinguish species.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from the type locality of Phuoc Binh N.P., Ninh Thuan Province, southern Vietnam.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration description is based upon living individuals (Figs 16, 17A). Overall coloration is pale green throughout, with variable areas highlighted with burnt red or brown coloration. These areas tend to be the margins on the lobes of the legs, some striping on the lobes of the legs, the thorax, abdominal margins, and the venation in the tegmina (Fig. 16).</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, vertex relatively smooth with the only notable feature being the posteromedial tubercle which is finely pointed (Fig. 18E). Frontal convexity broad and blunt, with a slightly granular surface. Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, and are not particularly large, taking up ca. ¼ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 18E). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than the width of the first antennomere. Antennae. Antennae consist of nine segments, with the terminal segment about the same length as the preceding 2½ segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 6B). Antennomeres I-VIII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere and the anterior margin of antennomere VIII are covered in stout, brown setae (Fig. 18C). Thorax. Pronotum with gently concave anterior margin and slightly convex lateral margins, which converge to a straight posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 18E). The pronotum surface is smooth, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior and lateral to the pit (Fig. 18E). The pronotum has moderately formed anterior and lateral rims and a weakly formed posterior rim, all of which are relatively smooth (Fig. 18E). Prosternum and the mesosternum are covered with numerous broad nodes, but the metasternum has a somewhat wrinkled surface. Prescutum longer than wide, lateral rims with 9-11 small to medium tubercles, similar in size giving the margin a rough appearance (Fig. 18E). Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, rim surface is granular, lacking a large sagittal spine (Fig. 18F). Prescutum surface heavily granular, with those along the sagittal plane slightly larger than the rest (Fig. 18E). Mesopleura begin ca. ¼ of the way through the prescutum length and evenly diverge; lateral margin with nine or ten small tubercles with about half of those slightly larger than the rest, with the smaller ones interspersed throughout (Fig. 18E). Face of the mesopleura smooth or slightly wrinkled, with two notable divots, one on the anterior margin and one near the middle (Fig. 18F). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching ½ through abdominal segment VII. Tegmina venation; the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing, running parallel with the margin for the first half, and then bending and running towards the margin. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the forewing with two subparallel branched veins; the first radius (R1) branches ca. ¼ of the way through the wing length and terminates slightly proximal to the midline, and the radial sector (Rs) branches ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length and terminates near the distal ⅓ of the wing length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thin R-M crossvein that weakly connects the two veins. The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating near to the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ⅕ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, at the length about midway between the splitting of the R1 and Rs. Alae short, with their apex only just passing the anterior margin of abdominal segment IV. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of IV uniformly diverging. The posterior half of segment IV through the anterior of segment VII are parallel, giving the abdomen a boxy appearance. The posterior half of segment VII ends in a slightly rounded lobe. Segments VIII-X are notably narrower than the previous segments, and have converging margins to the broad rounded apex (Fig. 18G). Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of tergum VIII, is moderately broad, and extends halfway onto tergum X with straight margins ending in a fine point (Fig. 18H). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, slightly exceeding the apex of abdominal tergum X; gonapophyses IX are shorter and narrower, hidden below (Figs 17C, 18H). Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a granular surface and few detectable setae (Fig. 18H). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe broad, rounded, and obtusely angled, smoothly arcing from end to end, ca. ⅓ wider than the width of the interior lobe (Fig. 18D). Edge of the profemoral exterior lobe granular, or with a slightly serrate surface of eight or nine small teeth (Fig. 18D). Profemoral interior lobe ca. 2 × as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, obtusely angled, and marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with looping gaps between them (Fig. 18D). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end but is slightly bent in the center, weighted towards the distal half, and marked with three or four small serrate teeth distributed on the distal half only. Interior lobe is about the same width as the mesofemoral shaft, and the exterior lobe is slightly wider. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs smoothly end to end with 6-8 small serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc which is slightly wider than the proximal half of the arc. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end, with the distal half slightly wider than the proximal half and marked with 7-10 serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks dentation. Protibiae lacking an exterior lobe (Fig. 18D). Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is ca. 2 × the width of the protibiae shaft itself. The lobe is roundly triangular with the widest portion on the distal half. Mesotibiae and metatibiae lacking exterior and interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of paratype female [mm] (wild caught).

Coloration. Coloration based upon live bred specimens in captivity (Fig. 17B). Overall coloration pale green throughout with variable patches of tan to reddish coloration (Fig. 17B). These tan to reddish areas are primarily around the margins of the lobes of the legs, the margins of the thorax, the tips of the antennae, and the margins of the abdomen. In darker colored specimens the mesofemoral lobes can also have coloration, not just along the margins. Abdominal segment V has a pair of slightly transparent eye spots.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, with a vertex that is relatively smooth with only light granulation throughout. Frontal convexity stout with sparse thin setae. The posteromedial tubercle is not broad but is distinctly raised from the head capsule. Compound eyes large and bulbous, taking up ca. ⅖ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 19E). There are three well-developed ocelli located between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consist of 23-26 segments, all segments except the scapus and pedicellus and terminal three segments are covered in dense setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal three segments are covered in dense short setae and the scapus and pedicellus are nearly completely bare. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin slightly concave and lateral margins that are slightly convex and converging to a straight posterior margin that is ca. ½ the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 19E). Anterior and lateral margins of the pronotum have moderately formed rims and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 19D). Face of the pronotum is marked by a distinct furrow and pit in the center and a relatively smooth lumpy surface with weak granulation (Fig. 19D). Prosternum surface is weakly granular with small nodes of even size and spacing. Mesosternum surface marked with slightly more prominent nodes, with the largest along the sagittal plane and denser on the anterior margin, posterior margin with less prominent and smaller nodes. Prescutum slightly longer than wide, with lateral margins that are only slightly converging to the posterior (Fig. 19E). Lateral rims with eight or nine node-like tubercles, giving the lateral margins a rough textured appearance. Prescutum surface with minimal nodes throughout, with those along the sagittal plane slightly larger than the others. Prescutum anterior rim moderately formed but not strongly raised, with a granular surface and lacking a prominent sagittal tubercle. Mesopleura begin on the anterior prescutum margin but are narrow throughout the anterior ⅓ of their length, only diverging gently for the posterior ⅔ (Fig. 19E). Lateral margin with eight or nine minor tubercles throughout the length except for the posterior ⅓ which is relatively smooth. Face of the mesopleura mostly smooth, with slight wrinkling throughout. Wings. Tegmina moderate length, extending ⅓ of the way onto abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates the earliest ca. ⅓ of the way through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching just proximal to the midline and terminating just distal to the midline, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off slightly more than ⅓ of the way through the wing length, and then the second media posterior (MP2) branches just distal to the midline, and the media anterior (MA) runs to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching to the middle or posterior of abdominal segments IX. Alae wing venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) is long, spanning ca. ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches slightly proximal to the midline into the first radius (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run gently diverging for most of their length and then converge at the apex of the wing where they terminate near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other throughout the wing until the distal ⅕ of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused to the wing apex where they terminate near the radial sector. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-6PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Lateral margins of abdominal segment II parallel, III through the anterior ⅔ of segment IV gradually diverging, the remainder of IV and segment V are parallel-sided, segment VI starts parallel-sided but then gently starts to converge and the remaining segments converge uniformly to the rounded apex of the abdomen. Genitalia. Poculum broad and ends in a rounded apex that slightly passes the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 19G). Cerci long and slender, extending from under the anal abdominal segment, nearly flat, not strongly cupped, covered in a granulose surface and numerous short setae (Fig. 19G). Vomer broad and stout with straight sides evenly converging and ending in a thick apical hook with a smaller second hook adjacent to it (Fig. 5E). Interestingly while examining the vomers of type material we found several aberrant vomers with some bearing only a singular hook (Fig. 20A) or even three hooks (Fig. 20B), based on other specimens examined and the trend within the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. males we expect that a typical male of this species has a two hooked vomer. Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe slightly broader than the interior lobe, ca. 2½× the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, roundly arcing end to end in a broad obtuse angle that is not distinctly bent, with the proximal margin slightly granulose, and the distal margin with four or five small serrate teeth (Fig. 20C). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular and marked with five sharp teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with looping gaps between them, and the central tooth slightly larger than the others (Fig. 20C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end but is slightly wider on the distal ⅓ which is marked with three or four serrate teeth, and a proximal half that is rather thin. Mesofemoral interior lobe is about the same width as the exterior, is broader on the distal end and is marked with 6-8 small serrate teeth. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with eight or nine small serrate teeth on the distal ⅔, which is slightly wider than the proximal ⅓. Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a smooth triangle which is slightly weighted to the distal half and at its widest is ca. 2½ as wide as the protibial shaft (Fig. 20C). Meso- and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes completely.</p><p>Measurements of holotype male [mm].

(Fig. 21). The overall color is muted dark brown, with the moss-like pinnae lighter in color, generally tan or light brown. The lateral surfaces are flat or slightly convex, with eggs either the same width anterior to posterior or with the posterior of the egg slightly wider. The lateral surfaces are marked with 40-50 small to medium sized pits, unevenly spaced in no detectable pattern, with sparse tufts of moss-like pinnae between these pits (Fig. 21A). The dorsal surface has the micropylar plate spanning a majority of the length but not quite reaching end to end. On either side of the micropylar plate is variable pitting (generally eight or so pits) with those one the anterior and posterior ends slightly larger than the central pits (Fig. 21C). The micropylar plate is symmetrical with the anterior and posterior thin and the middle the widest point. The micropylar cup is not located at this widest midpoint but is instead located on the posterior ⅓ of the micropylar plate. The micropylar plate margin is lined with short moss-like pinnae. Operculum slightly ovular, outer margin with a distinct row of short moss-like pinnae and in from the outer margin is a singular semi-circle of small to medium pits on the dorsal and lateral aspects (not fully surrounding the apex of the operculum as the ventral portion lacks these pits; Fig. 21D). Operculum is roundly raised with the height ca. ½ the operculum width and the apex of the raised operculum has a tuft of moss-like pinnae. The ventral surface of the egg capsule has a slightly raised sagittal crest marked sparsely with short moss-like pinnae on the anterior ⅔, and the posterior ⅓ has longer moss-like pinnae. On either side of this raised sagittal crest is pitting, near the posterior ⅓ on each side of the longer moss-like pinnae of the sagittal crest is a large circular pit, and anterior to the lowest large pit are around ten small to medium pits arranged in no detectable pattern (Fig. 21F).</p><p>Measurements including the extended pinnae [mm].

The general color throughout the body is dark brown with slightly lighter brown on the legs. The basitarsi are yellow and remaining tarsal segments are dark brown. All tibiae lack exterior lobes but do have extremely thin smoothly arcing interior lobes which have several tan to brown stripes throughout their length. All femoral lobes are similar in width and have distinct serration on their distal halves. The interior profemoral lobe lacks a white spot, but the exterior lobe has a distinct white patch on the proximal ⅓ with an additional small white patch at the proximal most margin. The meso- and metafemoral interior lobes have two white patches, one on the proximal most edge, and a larger white patch ⅓ of the way through the length. The meso- and metafemoral exterior lobes also have a large white patch on the proximal ⅓, but lack a smaller white patch on the proximal most margin. The distal ends of the meso- and metafemora also have minimal white edges. The abdomen is mostly brown, but abdominal segments II and III have distinct green patches on their lateral surfaces (the centerline of the abdomen is uniform brown throughout).

This species is now well-known and little confusion surrounds this species’ true identity. This has not always been the case however as for years it was the subject of repeated misidentifications by many authors (see Hennemann et al. (2009) for a thorough list of misidentifications which instead represented species such as Phyllium ericoriai Hennemann et al., 2009 from the Philippines and the closely related Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. from mainland Asia). Gray (1843) appears to be the first to erroneously state that ' Phyllium celebicum ' occurs in the Philippines and Wood-Mason (1875) disrupted the mainland Asia identifications when he claimed that ' Phyllium celebicum ' could be found in Myanmar. These two works snowballed for decades as nearly all specimens from Northern Thailand (a major commercial breeding site for Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov.) were sold as ' Phyllium celebicum ' therefore confusing collectors and researchers. Additional confusion likely occurred due to the fact that the last publication explicitly recording the holotype ' Phyllium celebicum ' appears to have been by Willemse (1947 [1945]) when he illustrated it and then it subsequently went missing despite several attempts to locate it by other authors (for example by Hennemann et al. in April of 2006 in their review of the RMNH collection). Thankfully the holotype specimen was located by the authors of this work while reviewing photographs of the RMNH collection and appears to have been overlooked as it was misplaced and labeled with "Type, Phyllium Pulchriphyllium crurifolium Serv., 1938 (sic!)", a simple mistake but one that shows how important proper labeling can be. Now the holotype is properly labelled, and we here present the first photographs of this important specimen (Fig. 22).</p><p>Interestingly, this species is commonly collected and sold from the forest of Sulawesi solely as green color form specimens, but nearly all captive bred individuals are yellow to orange in coloration (Fig. 23B, D) with green individuals captive reared quite rare (Fig. 23A). Molecularly, we unfortunately do not have a wide sampling from throughout Sulawesi or the surrounding islands so we do not yet know the average intraspecific variation on Sulawesi. We were able to obtain a molecular sample from Peleng Island off the northeast Sulawesi coast which shows a notable molecular distance from our single mainland sample (Fig. 4). This Peleng specimen did not have significant morphological differences to differentiate it from the mainland series we examined, and due to our lack of sampling from throughout Sulawesi within this review we treat this offshore population as identical. Perhaps additional molecular sampling will reveal the true intraspecific variation of this species and warrant the Peleng population to be described as a sister species one day.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females can be differentiated by the following combination of features: mesopleura which are narrow on the anterior half, alae which are ca. ½ the length of the tegmina, and profemoral exterior lobes which are broad and slightly recurved which gives them an acute angle at the bend. Two species which are morphologically very similar are Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. due to the abdominal and femoral lobe shapes. Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. is the molecular sister species to Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. and morphologically very similar with the only easy to differentiate feature being the profemoral exterior lobe which in Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. is nearly right angled, not slightly recurved with an acute angle. The male and egg morphology are not known for Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. but hopefully once that is observed, additional features can be identified. Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. has a very similarly shaped abdomen and exterior profemoral lobes, but can immediately be differentiated by the mesopleura, which are prominent and reach nearly to the anterior rim (Fig. 42E) vs. Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. which has the mesopleura narrowed on the anterior rim (Fig. 22E).</p><p>Males are rather morphologically unique as they have profemoral exterior lobes, which are broad and strongly angled almost to a right angle. No other known males of Cryptophyllium gen. nov. have such a prominent profemoral exterior lobe as they either have a narrow rounded lobe (like in Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov.; Fig. 75B) or an exterior profemoral lobe, which at most is broad with a distinct bend, but still clearly obtuse (like in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. or Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov.; Fig. 50B).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Known from throughout the island of Sulawesi and from the nearby offshore islands of Peleng to the east and Buton to the south.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/9E1ECF645E4D5FD6AAC328B2E0E41250	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Molecularly, Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. is sister species to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. with these two species biogeographically separated by the Isthmus of Kra. The Isthmus of Kra is a notable line of biogeography for several organisms (e.g., Li and Li 2018; Parnell 2013) which separates the Ranong and Chumphon Provinces of Thailand (Fig. 2). This isthmus appears to be significant for the Phyllium (Phyllium) as no species are presently known north of this line, but insignificant for the Phyllium (Pulchriphyllium) as this group is found on both sides of this line.</p><p>With our herein designation of a neotype for Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. we can help to clear up possible significant confusion which surrounds this species. When Wood-Mason described this species in 1875 he did so with a male and female pair of syntypes from two different localities. The female was from "South Andaman" and the male was from "near Pahpoon, ca. 150 miles north of Moulmein, in the Salween country" (Wood-Mason 1875). It is almost certain biogeographically that these syntypes represent two different phylliid species, not a singular Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. as he intended. Morphologically, Wood-Mason’s description and wonderful illustration of the female syntype interestingly appears very similar morphologically to Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. with the correct femoral and abdominal shapes, and alae length (Fig. 25). With our designation of a neotype Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. from a male from the mainland, this leaves the Andaman female somewhat mysterious as few records&gt; of phylliids have been noted from the Andaman Islands, all of which are Phyllium (Pulchriphyllium) bioculatum -like species, none representing a Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species. Hopefully one day a fresh specimen of this Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species from the Andamans can be located and molecularly compared with congenerics to identify if it is an additional Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. range expansion or an undescribed species.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females can be differentiated by the following combination of features: spade-shaped abdomen (as segment VII lacks lobes), mesopleura which are distinctly narrower on the anterior half, and alae which are only ca. ½ as long as the tegmina. Morphologically, this species is similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. due to the femoral and mesopleura shape, but can be differentiated by the shorter alae (only half of the tegmina length) as Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. has alae which are nearly the same length as the tegmina (Fig. 68D). Additionally, Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. is morphologically similar due to the femoral, mesopleura, and abdominal shape, but can immediately be differentiated by the metatibial exterior lobes which are lacking in Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov.</p><p>Males are morphologically very similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. and we have yet to find a reliable morphological feature to differentiate these two species. Both are morphologically variable and can even have a wide range of sizes which does not allow for confident differentiation when molecular markers and locality are unknown. One of the more consistent features however is the abdominal shape as Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. tends to have a slightly more spade-shaped abdomen with segments V-IX converging, and Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. having a slightly more ovoid abdomen with segments V-VI parallel or subparallel, but we have seen morphological intermediates which do not allow this as a diagnostic feature.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>The type locality for Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. is mainland Singapore and it has additionally been recorded from St. John’s Island from a record in the SDEI collections. Additionally, we have observed specimens and photographs from several areas, including several from Thailand: Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, Thung Song District (Fig. 24D) and Satun Province, Tarutao Island (UCR coll.); one tentative old record of a large female from Malaysia, Sarawak, Kuching, from the NHMUK collection (Fig. 26); an adult female from Tapah, Malaysia (LKCNHM); and a record from Indonesia, Pulau Weh Island off the coast of Sumatra (Fig. 24C). Hopefully molecular samples from these far-reaching areas can one day be obtained to confirm the identification as Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. but for now morphologically this is what these records&gt; appear to represent.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/A16BAF5141C05232A40975226EEEBA20	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Grö ßer (2011) was the first to review the vomer morphology across a wide sampling of species and noted that the vomer of males in this group is two-hooked, whereas all other known phylliid males have a singularly hooked vomer. Besides this distinct feature, it is a combination of other features, not a singular feature, which allows differentiation of Cryptophyllium gen. nov. from the other phylliid genera. Morphologically, Cryptophyllium gen. nov. falls within the Phylliini due to the posteromedial tubercle being singular, not split into two lobes (a feature which differentiates Phylliini and Nanophylliini; Cumming et al. 2020c).</p><p>Genera and subgenera included within the Phylliini Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1893 are: Chitoniscus Stål, 1875; Microphyllium Zompro, 2001; Pseudomicrophyllium Cumming, 2017; Phyllium (Phyllium) Illiger, 1798; Phyllium (Pulchriphyllium) Griffini, 1898; Phyllium (Comptaphyllium) Cumming, Le Tirant, &amp; Hennemann, 2019; Phyllium (Walaphyllium) Cumming, Thurman, Youngdale &amp; Le Tirant, 2020, and the herein described Cryptophyllium gen. nov.

Hopefully further collection efforts in this region will reveal the unknown male and the presently unknown egg morphology.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically most similar to Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. due to the tapered, spade-like abdomen and the anteriorly narrower mesopleura. From both species Cryptophyllium daparo sp. nov. can be differentiated by the exterior profemoral lobe shape which is distinctly obtuse and nearly rounded in its shape, not smoothly right-angled like in the other species. Cryptophyllium daparo sp. nov. is also notably larger than Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. which are only 77 and 88 mm long respectively (Hennemann et al. 2009; Liu 1993).</p><p>Males are presently unknown, and the unique female morphology means we cannot predict much about the male morphology.

Coloration. Coloration description is based upon the dried holotype which is somewhat discolored (Fig. 27). Leaf insects are a more vibrant lime green in life and we expect that this specimen was likely originally this color. The holotype female is mostly tan to pale green throughout and appears to not have any natural brown patches of color as are sometimes present on the lobes or thorax.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, vertex with moderately spaced small granulation, and two notable tubercles, one on each side of the sagittal plane near the midline of the head capsule which are larger than the rest, but not as prominent as the posteromedial tubercle (Fig. 27D). The posteromedial tubercle is about as broad as the two tubercles on the capsule, but the posteromedial tubercle is notably taller and pointed (easily seen from the lateral aspect; Fig. 27F). Frontal convexity broad but not very large, with an irregularly lumpy surface and sparse transparent setae throughout. Compound eyes only slightly protruding from the head capsule and only occupying ca. ⅕ of the head capsule length (Fig. 27D). Ocelli absent. Antennae. Antennae consisting of nine segments, with the terminal segment slightly shorter than the length of the preceding two segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 27B). Antennomeres I-VIII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere is covered in stout, brown setae. Thorax. Pronotum with a distinctly concave anterior margin and nearly straight lateral margins, which converge to a straight posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 27D). The pronotum surface is marked with slight granulation, with a prominent pit in the center, and distinct furrows anterior and posterior to the pit and slight furrows lateral to the central pit (Fig. 27D). The pronotum has a prominent anterior rim which is marked throughout by minute setae and moderately formed lateral rims, and a posterior rim which is weakly formed (Fig. 27D). Prosternum with moderate nodes, irregularly sized and spaced. Mesosternum with similar nodes as on the pronotum, but only along the margins and on the anterior half of the sagittal plane, the remainder of the surface is rather smooth. Metasternum with an irregularly lumpy surface, no strong nodes. Prescutum slightly longer than wide and with nearly parallel lateral margins (Fig. 27D). Lateral rims with eight or nine irregularly shaped but short tubercles with various small nodes mixed throughout, giving the margins a rough textured appearance (Fig. 27D). Prescutum anterior rim distinct, but not strongly raised above the prescutum surface, the rim has a granular surface, no distinct sagittal tubercle larger than the rest (Fig. 27F). Prescutum surface with irregular nodes throughout, with those along the sagittal plane slightly more prominent (Fig. 27D). Mesopleura beginning slightly posterior to the anterior margin of the prescutum and evenly diverging; lateral margin with three or four larger tubercles throughout the length, and ten or eleven smaller node-like tubercles interspersed (Fig. 27D). Face of the mesopleura with granulation throughout and slight wrinkling on areas where the nodes are less prominent (Fig. 27F). Wings. Tegmina long, extending three quarters of the way through abdominal segment VII. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing and runs parallel with the wing for the first half and then distinctly bends towards the distal margin where it terminates ca. ¼ of the way through the wing length. The radius (R) fills approximately the anterior ⅓ of the wing as two subparallel branched veins; radius 1 (R1) terminates ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length, and the radial sector (Rs) terminates posterior to the widest portion of the tegmina, just past the midline. There is a thinner continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short R-M crossvein that does not appear to solidly connect the two veins. The media (M) is bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating close to the posterior ⅓ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ¼ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, only slightly past the branching distance of the R1 from the R. Alae well developed, 58.5 mm long, only a little shorter than the tegmina. Abdomen. Segments II through the anterior ⅓ of IV gradually diverging, with the posterior ⅔ of segments IV and V parallel-sided. Segments VI-X are gradually converging to the broadly rounded apex, giving the abdomen a smooth spade-shaped appearance (Fig. 27A). Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is broad, and extends ca. ⅔ of the way onto segment X, ending in a fine point (Fig. 27G). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, slightly exceeding the apex of abdominal segment X (Fig. 27G); gonapophyses IX are thinner and shorter and are concealed below the larger gonapophyses VIII. Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a granular surface and rough granular lateral margins (Fig. 27E). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobes slightly broader than the interior lobe, roundly arcing from end to end in a broad obtuse angle (Fig. 27C). Edge of the profemoral exterior lobe with a highly granular surface on the proximal margin, and the distal margin has less granulation, but does have five or six small but notable teeth (Fig. 27C). Profemoral interior lobe ca. 3 × as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, and with a distinct obtuse angle and a distal margin marked by four or five prominent serrate teeth, with a larger gap between the middle teeth (Fig. 27C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end with a distinct bend near the center slightly weighted towards the distal half and marked with two or three dulled serrate teeth on the distal half only. Interior mesofemoral lobe is slightly narrower than the exterior lobe. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs end to end with five or six serrate teeth on the distal half of the arc only. Metafemoral interior lobe narrow, arcing end to end, and marked with five or six serrate teeth and slight granulation on the distal half of the lobe only. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks teeth. Pro-, meso-, and meta- tibiae lacking exterior lobes. Protibial interior lobe spans the entire length, is ca. 2 × the width of the shaft, and is roundly triangular with the widest portion on the distal half (Fig. 27A). Meso- and metatibiae lacking interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of holotype female [mm].

Figures 28, 29</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>We examined the holotype female from within the Beijing Agricultural University from detailed photographs taken by Yu-Chen Zheng (China Agricultural University, China). Additionally, we examined a tentatively identified male from "Yunnan China: Qinglangdang, Dulongjiang Township, Gongshan County, Nujiang Prefecture, II-2016, Local" (Coll ZD).A tentative male specimen collected very near the type locality was used in our molecular analysis, which cannot be confidently confirmed as Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. due to extreme sexual dimorphism of the phylliids and lack of a fresh tissue sample from a true Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. female (Fig. 29).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species is only known at present from the morphologically unique holotype female from northern Yunnan Province (Fig. 28). However, this area is not known for a high diversity of species, so we are fairly confident that this male represents the undescribed Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. male. Also, this male specimen was molecularly recovered as distinct to the other species described from China as we have successfully sampled almost all species of Cryptophyllium gen. nov. and included them in our molecular phylogeny (Fig. 4).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium liyananae sp. nov. due to the long alae, rounded exterior profemoral lobe, mesopleura which are distinctly reaching the anterior margin but slightly curved on the anterior end (not perfectly straight margined), boxy abdomen with a notable bend on abdominal segment VII, and the presence of small exterior lobes on all tibiae. Both of these species can be differentiated by the length of the subgenital plate as in Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. it is short, just passing the anterior margin on the tenth abdominal segment, and in the other species it is at least three quarters of the length of the tenth abdominal segment (in Cryptophyllium liyananae sp. nov.) or even longer and exceeding the tip of the abdomen (in Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov.).</p><p>Our male specimen is morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. due to the shape of the profemoral exterior lobe which smoothly arcs end to end without a distinct bend, the exterior profemoral lobe that is the same width or slightly thinner than the interior lobe (not wider as is common in many of the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species), tegmina which are long reaching the anterior margin of abdominal segment IV or slightly passing it, a similar spade-shaped abdomen, and prominent tubercles on the mesopleura.</p><p>Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. males additionally have small exterior tibial lobes on the distal ends like are present in our Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. male. Our male Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. can however be differentiated from Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. by the presence of eight or nine small serrate teeth present throughout the full length of the profemoral exterior lobe vs. Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. males which only have two or three small teeth on the distal end only. Additionally, the mesofemoral exterior lobe also can differentiate these species as it is distinctly angled in our Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. male and smoothly arcing without a distinct bend in Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. males.</p><p>Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. can be differentiated by the absence of exterior tibial lobes and the lack of a distinctly serrate exterior profemoral lobe margin, with Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. only having two or three small teeth vs. our male Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. which has eight or nine small serrate teeth present throughout the full length of the profemoral exterior lobe.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from northern Yunnan Province, from the type locality of Nujian Lisu Autonomous Prefecture, Gongshan County (Drung-Nu), and our tentative male Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. from Du Longjiang Township, Qing Lang Dang in the same prefecture.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/37ECB48AD86050F7AB814CAADB108F15	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Figure 30</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>Holotype ♀: INDONESIA: Wangi-wangi Island. Collected prior to 2020, but no exact date given. Deposited in the Montreal Insectarium (IMQC).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This is the first phylliid record we have seen from the small island of Wangi-wangi in the Wakatobi Regency in Southeast Sulawesi Province. This small island appears to be rather unique biogeographically and unexplored as a yet to be described bird species presently known as the "Wangi-wangi White-eye" ( Zosterops sp. nov.) has recently been identified as well, suggesting this island may hold many endemic undescribed species ( O’Connell et al. 2019).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Presently we only know of a single female specimen of this new species which we here designate as the holotype. Morphologically and molecularly this species is closely related to Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. which has a much wider distribution to the north on the islands of Buton, Sulawesi, and Peleng (Fig. 2).</p><p>Female Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. by only subtle differences in the thorax and profemoral exterior lobes. In Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. the prescutum is slightly broader and with a weaker sagittal crest (Fig. 30D) than in Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. (Fig. 22E). Additionally the profemoral exterior lobe of Cryptophyllium echidna sp. nov. has a right exterior angle (Fig. 30A), not acute like in Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. (Fig. 22D).</p><p>Males are presently unknown, but as the sister species to Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. the males likely have a similar morphology.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from the small Indonesian island of Wangi-wangi off the east coast of Buton Island.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. At present we only have the dried holotype female to describe the color from which has a bit of rot through the legs, head, thorax, and the central area of the abdomen. The rotten areas are brown but are assumed to have been green in life. The remainder of the female is lime-green in color throughout, with no indication of natural brown patches (which even on somewhat rotten specimens can generally be identified) but this female appears to have been uniform green in life.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule slightly longer than wide, vertex with minimal granulation throughout the surface, all relatively well-spaced with no areas on the head tightly packed. The posteromedial tubercle is the most prominent feature on the vertex of the head capsule. Frontal convexity broad and stout, shorter than the length of the first antennomere, and with a lumpy surface marked by few short transparent setae. Compound eyes not particularly large, only slightly protruding from the head capsule, taking up ca. ¼ of the length of the lateral head capsule margins (Fig. 30A). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than and about as long as the length of the first antennomere. Antennae. Antennae consist of nine segments, with the terminal segment approximately the same length as the preceding two segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 30B). Antennomeres I-III sparsely marked with small transparent setae (with the longest on the first segment), the terminal two antennomeres are densely covered in stout, brown setae. Thorax. Pronotum with a gently concave anterior margin and slightly convex lateral margins, which converge to a straight posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 30D). The pronotum surface lacks granulation but is slightly lumpy, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior and lateral to the pit (Fig. 30D). The pronotum has a prominent anterior rim and moderate lateral and posterior rims (Fig. 30D). Prosternum and mesosternum with numerous nodes throughout the surface, all about the same size and spacing throughout. Metasternum with slightly less granulation but they are slightly larger than those on the pro- and mesosternum. Prescutum longer than wide, with a slightly broader anterior margin (Fig. 30D). Lateral rims with 6-8 prominent tubercles with various small, lumpy granules interspersed throughout the margins (Fig. 30D). Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, surface is granular and lacks a prominent sagittal spine (Fig. 30D). Prescutum surface without a strongly raised sagittal crest, instead the surface is only slightly raised along the sagittal plane. The prescutum surface has moderate granulation throughout ranging in size from small to medium with irregular spacing (Fig. 30D). Mesopleura not spanning the entire length, instead with the anterior ⅓ narrow and only starting to fan out near the midline of the prescutum length. Mesopleura lateral margins with five or six larger, sharp tipped tubercles with an additional five or six smaller nodes interspersed throughout (Fig. 30D). Face of the mesopleura lacking granulation, but instead highly wrinkled and with two notable pits, one on the anterior ⅓ and one nearer the posterior ⅓ (Fig. 30D). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching nearly to the posterior margin of abdominal segment VII. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing and runs subparallel with the wing for the first half of its length, and then bends towards the wing margin for the second half. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the tegmina with two subparallel branched veins. The first radius (R1) branches ca. ⅗ of the way through the radius length and terminates ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. The radial sector (Rs) branches from the end of the radius and runs angled to the wing margin where it terminates just posterior to the wing midline length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent radial sector branching which continues on as a short and thin radius to media crossvein (R-M). The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating close to the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) runs throughout the entire wing length simply, and then near the posterior ⅕ of the wing becomes bifurcate into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, near where the radial sector branches from the radial. Alae of moderate length, reaching abdominal segment IV. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior ½ of IV diverging, with the middle of segment IV the widest segment. Segments V-VII gently converging, with segment VII ending with a distinct lobe which bends inward to a notably narrower segment VIII. Segments VIII-X converging to a broad apex. Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is broad, and only extends ⅓ of the way under segment X, ending in a fine point (Fig. 30E). Gonapophyses VIII are long (exceeding the tip of the abdomen but not as long as the tips of the cerci) and moderately broad (together side by side are about as broad as the subgenital plate; Fig. 30E). Gonapophyses IX are smaller and shorter, and mostly covered from view by the notably larger gonapophyses VIII. Cerci flat, with a granular surface throughout and few setae on the ventral surface, the dorsal surface has thin, transparent setae throughout the surface (Fig. 30E). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobes broad (ca. 2 × width of the interior lobe) and approximately right angled (Fig. 30A). Proximal edge of the exterior profemoral lobe gently undulates giving this margin a slightly wavy appearance, whereas the distal margin is nearly straight, both margins have notable serration throughout their lengths (Fig. 30A). Profemoral interior lobe with a slightly obtuse angle and marked with five large, serrate teeth with looping gaps between them. These teeth are arranged somewhat into a two-one-two pattern with the gaps between these sets larger. Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end and is almost evenly weighted on both sides, but with the broadest point just off center to the distal side of the midline, and on the distal half only marked with three small serrate teeth. Interior mesofemoral lobe arcs end to end, is ca. ¼ narrower than the exterior lobe, not as strongly angled, and marked with six or seven teeth on the distal half. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end but is notably wider on the distal ⅔ of the lobe and this wider portion is marked by 11 or 12 serrate teeth. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and marked with one or two small, rounded teeth on the distal edge. Protibiae lacking an exterior lobe. Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae as a rounded scalene triangle with the widest portion on the distal ⅓. Mesotibiae and metatibiae simple, lacking exterior and interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of holotype female [mm]. Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 94.5, length/width of head 7.8/7.5, antennae 5.0, pronotum 6.6, mesonotum 7.9, length of tegmina 59.1, length of alae 31.6, greatest width of abdomen 41.3, profemora 20.7, mesofemora 16.5, metafemora 21.2, protibiae 14.0, mesotibiae 12.1, metatibiae 16.4.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Noun, Greek in origin. Relating to the tenth labor of Heracles (apparently a favorite story of Gray (1843) as four of his therein described species came from this myth) in which Heracles was tasked with capturing the red cattle from the monster Geryon (for which Gray named Phyllium geryon Gray, 1843). Before Heracles sailed out to the island Erythia where Geryon and his red cattle lived, he rested on the mainland and forgot to tie up his horses. When he eventually found them, they were in a cave with an Echidna (a monster which is described as women from the waist up and snake on her lower half). She refused to give back his horses unless he lay with her, which being a classic Greek hero, he did. Before he left the Echidna, she told him that she was pregnant with three of his sons and asked him which of the three should rule her lands one day. Heracles then left her with his bow and a girdle, and told her that whichever of his three sons could draw the bow and wear the girdle best would inherit her land and the other two should be banished. Those three sons were Agathyrsus, Gelonus, and Scythes (for which Gray named Phyllium agathyrsus Gray, 1843; Phyllium gelonus Gray, 1843; and Phyllium scythe Gray, 1843).</p><p>We felt that this species could help to finish telling the story which Gray was so fond of. With Phyllium geryon being a species from the Philippines, one biogeographical bridge for species to the Philippines is from Sulawesi through the Sangihe Islands (Evans et al. 2003), therefore as a steppingstone to the Philippines we felt there should be an Echidna along the route to the Philippines where Phyllium geryon can be found.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/B7FA223E233555279DF4863A17B08329	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Figure 31</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>Holotype ♂: "VIETNAM: Quang Ngai Province, Bato Mt. 900 m. elv: May 2015 (Coll RC 16-114)". Molecularly sampled within our analysis. Deposited in the Montreal Insectarium (IMQC).</p><p>Paratypes (2♂): 1 ♂: "Ngoc Linh, Kon Tum Prov. Vietnam, 1700 m, VI.2016, leg. Luong coll. TB-05-134' (Coll TB) • ♂ nymph: "VIETNAM: Lam Dong, Bao Lam, Da Tom: March 2016 (Coll RC 16-236)", molecularly sampled within our analysis (Coll RC).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This large species was immediately identified as distinct by the size and additionally by the large, prominent tubercles of the mesopleura, which are not as distinct in males of other Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species. Despite several expeditions to southern Vietnam by the RBINS expedition members, no possible female for this species has been located to date, despite the fact that the female is likely a very large phylliid. Hopefully future expeditions reveal the female so the morphology to congenerics can be compared.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are presently unknown. Male Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. due to the large size and thorax spination and Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. due to the superficially similar appearance of a slender abdomen and large overall size. Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. by the mesopleura spination (as Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. has meseopleurae with four large protruding tubercles and five smaller interspersed nodes; Fig. 31A) vs. Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. which has six small sized tubercles and six or seven small nodes interspersed (Fig. 10C). Additionally, Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. has a rather average interior profemoral lobe serration pattern with irregular sized and spaced teeth (Fig. 31B), vs. Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. which has teeth all evenly spaced and sized (Fig. 10B). Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. by the narrower abdomen (rather broad and spade-shaped in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov.), a lack of small exterior tibial lobes (as Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. has distinct small exterior tibial lobes), and the interior protibial lobe shape which in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. is weighted towards the anterior ⅓ in a scalene triangle, vs. Cryptophyllium faulkneri sp. nov. which has the lobe evenly weighted with the widest portion in the middle as an isosceles triangle.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Presently only known from central and southern Vietnam, no other specimens are presently known. The two Vietnamese provinces that this species is known from are Quang Ngai and Lam Dong Provinces.</p><p>Male.</p><p>Coloration. Coloration description based on the dried holotype specimen, not on living individuals which are likely a more vibrant green. Overall coloration is pale green with variable patches of yellow throughout due to the drying of the specimen (Fig. 31B). Compound eyes are rust red (Fig. 31A). There are no hints of natural brown coloration on the holotype and there are no eye spots present on the abdomen.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule slightly longer than wide, with a vertex that lacks granulation; posteromedial tubercle notable as the only feature on the posterior half of the head capsule (Fig. 31A). Frontal convexity stout, with a somewhat broad point, and with numerous short setae throughout the surface. Compound eyes large but not overly bulbous, occupying slightly&gt; ⅓ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 31A). Between the compound eyes are three well-developed ocelli. Antennal fields are slightly wider than, and approximately as long as the scapus. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 28 segments. The scapus and pedicellus are mostly bare but with few very short setae throughout, segments III-XXV are covered in dense, thin, pale setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal three segments have dense short setae throughout that are notably shorter than the segments are wide. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin gently concave and lateral margins that are slightly convex and converge to a straight posterior margin that is ca. ½ the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 31A). Anterior and lateral margins of the pronotum have distinct rims and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 31A). Face of the pronotum is marked by a smooth surface, distinct sagittal furrow on the anterior half, a pit just posterior to the center, and a moderate perpendicular furrow just anterior to the central pit (Fig. 31A). Prosternum only has minimal small granulation on a mostly smooth surface, the mesosternum surface on the anterior half is heavily granulose and the posterior half is wrinkled to smooth (Fig. 31C). The metasternum lacks granulation but has a smooth wrinkled surface throughout. Prescutum narrow, longer than wide, with lateral margins that are straight and marked with four or five large smooth tubercles of almost equal size with few smaller nodes interspersed between them, spaces between the prominent tubercles relatively smooth (Fig. 31A).The surface of the prescutum is slightly raised along the sagittal plane which is marked with nine or ten, smooth nodes of slightly varying size, with the remainder of the prescutum surface lacking nodes, but with a slightly wrinkled surface instead (Fig. 31A). Prescutum anterior rim with a slightly lumpy surface and a moderately formed central tubercle that rises above the prescutum slightly (Fig. 31A). Mesopleura narrow on their anterior ⅓, then gradually diverging with straight margins on the posterior ⅔ (Fig. 31A). Lateral margin with five or six large protruding tubercles and five or six smaller nodes interspersed throughout (Fig. 31A). Face of the mesopleura smooth but slightly wrinkled and with two distinct pits, one near the anterior and one on the posterior ⅓. Wings. Tegmina moderate length, extending ½ through abdominal segment III. Tegmina venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates the earliest ca. ⅖ of the way through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching just proximal to the midline and terminating just distal to the midline, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off just proximal to the midline, and then the second media posterior (MP2) branches just posterior to the midline, and the media anterior (MA) runs to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well-developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching ⅔ of the way through abdominal segment VIII. Alae venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) is long, spanning slightly &lt;⅔ of the wing length and is fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches ca. ⅖ of the way through into the first radius (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run gently diverging for most of their length and then converge at the apex of the wing where they terminate near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other throughout the wing until the distal quarter of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing apex where they terminate near the radial sector. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-6PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Abdomen is a narrow dagger-like shape. Abdominal segment II with parallel-sided margins, III with gently diverging margins, the anterior half of segment IV gently diverging to the widest point of the abdomen. The remainder of segment IV through the apex are converging uniformly with straight margins to the apex. Genitalia. Poculum broad and rounded, ending in a straight margined apex that passes onto segment X. Cerci not exceptionally long, with only ca. ½ of their length protruding from under the terminal abdominal segment. The cerci are relatively flat, not strongly cupped, covered in a granulose surface and numerous short setae throughout. Vomer broad and stout with straight sides evenly converging to the apex which is armed with two upwards turning hooks. Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe a rounded arc, about as wide as the interior lobe (ca. 3 × the width of the profemoral shaft at its widest), and with the anterior half marked by five small, rounded teeth (Fig. 31B). Profemoral interior lobe an obtusely rounded triangle with six, serrate, anteriorly pointing teeth arranged in pairs with looping gaps between them (in the holotype the middle pair of teeth are uneven in size, one notably larger than the other; Fig. 31B). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end but with the widest portion slightly distal to the midline, and the widest point slightly wider than the interior lobe. The mesofemoral exterior lobe is marked with six or seven small serrate teeth distal to the widest point, with the proximal portion of the lobe smooth. The mesofemoral interior lobe is approximately the same width as the mesofemoral shaft with five or six small serrate teeth on the distal half only. Metafemoral exterior lobe thin, lacks dentation, and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with nine or ten small serrate teeth on the distal half only. Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a smooth evenly weighted triangle two and a half times as wide as the protibial shaft (Fig. 31B). Meso- and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes.</p><p>Measurements of holotype male [mm].

Several adult females and a subadult male nymph were found on small trees between the side of the road and next to a high cliff with primary forest on top (Fig. 32C, D). This species was successfully brought into the phasmid breeding community which allowed observation of morphological variation in the females and description of the adult male, egg, and freshly hatched nymph morphology (Fig. 33). Interestingly, a significant change in abdominal shape occurred when this species was reared in captivity vs. the wild collected females. The wild collected paratype females (Fig. 32A) has a slenderer abdomen, with segments VI and VII notably converging towards the posterior with only a slight bend near the posterior of segment VII, vs. individuals reared in captivity (Fig. 33A) which instead develop a rather boxy abdominal shape, with segments VI and the majority of VII parallel-sided and ending in a distinct lobe on the posterior of VII. Interestingly all wild caught females were slender and all bred females have been boxy; at this time we are unsure what mechanism is promoting this polymorphism within this species. Hopefully additional field work in the region will reveal additional observations to review.</p><p>An additional unique feature for this species is the coloration of the freshly hatched nymphs, which do not match well with the coloration of other known congenerics. This could be due to our lack of knowledge as freshly hatched nymph coloration is known only for nine species (Fig. 9). Molecularly, we found Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. to be sister species to Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. whose freshly hatched nymph morphology we do not know. It is possible that these may share similar coloration, but at the present Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. with their solid red abdomen and dark extremities (Fig. 9I) appear quite unique within the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. as presently known.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Female morphology is superficially similar to Cryptophyllium daparo sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. due to the tapered abdominal shape, obtusely rounded profemoral exterior lobes, and similarly shaped and textured thorax. Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. can be differentiated from both species by the highly reduced alae not reaching abdominal segment II (Fig. 33C), vs. the other species which both have well-developed alae.</p><p>Males with their thorax shape and spination, the spade-shaped abdomen, shorter tegmina, and exterior profemoral lobe which is thinner than the interior, are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. males. From both species, Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. can be differentiated by the width of the profemoral lobe which in Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. is only ca. 2 × as wide as the profemoral shaft, vs. the other species which are at least 2½ or 3 × as wide as the profemoral shaft. Additionally, males of Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. are notably larger than the largest Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. males.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Only presently known from southern Vietnam, from the provinces of Lam Dong and Dak Lak.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration is variable, as when it was bred in captivity females were almost uniformly pale green, with only slightly orange/tan areas along the profemoral lobes, antennae, eyes, thorax, and terminal abdominal margins (Fig. 33A). In contrast, the paratype female when she was found in the wild was quite colorful with a vibrant green body with highlights of red throughout the antennae, legs, thorax, tegmina, and abdomen (Fig. 32A), much darker and more plentiful than on captive bred specimens.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule longer than wide, vertex relatively smooth, with the only notable feature the posteromedial tubercle which is not notably broad but is significantly raised above the head capsule (Fig. 34E). Frontal convexity broad and stout, with a lumpy surface, and with several setae throughout (Fig. 34E). Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, not notably large, only taking up slightly &lt;1/4 of the length of the lateral head capsule margins (Fig. 34E). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than the first antennomere (Fig. 34C). Antennae. Antennae consisting of nine segments, with the terminal segment about as long as 2½× the preceding segments lengths (Fig. 34C). Antennomeres I-VIII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere and the distal margin of antennomere VIII has darker, shorter, and denser setae than the other segments (Fig. 34C). Thorax. Pronotum with a slightly concave anterior margin and slightly convex lateral margins, which converge to a straight posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 34E). The pronotum surface and moderately formed pronotum rims are only slightly lumpy, lacking significant granulation, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior, posterior, and lateral to the pit (Fig. 34E). Prosternum with moderate granulation, mesosternum anterior half and lateral margins with moderate granulation (Fig. 34B). Metasternum relatively smooth, lacking notable nodes. Prescutum slightly longer than wide, lateral rims with four larger nodes and four or five nodes interspersed throughout (Fig. 34E). Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, surface marked throughout with irregular granulation, no prominent singular sagittal spine present (Fig. 34F). Prescutum surface covered densely by small tubercles and numerous nodes, with those along the sagittal plane the largest (Fig. 34E). Mesopleura beginning slightly posterior to the anterior margin of the prescutum and evenly diverging; lateral margin with five larger tubercles, and five or six smaller tubercles interspersed unevenly throughout (Fig. 34E). Face of the mesopleura slightly wrinkled, with a distinct pit near the anterior margin and one near the center (Fig. 34E). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching ½ way through abdominal segment VII. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing and runs parallel with the tegmina lateral margin for the first half of the vein, then bends gently and runs to the to the lateral margin of the wing where it terminates ca. ⅓ through the length. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the forewing with two subparallel branched veins; radius 1 (R1) terminates slightly proximal to the midline, and the radial sector (Rs) terminates ca. ⅔ of the way through the wing length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thinner R-M crossvein that does not solidly connect the two veins as it reaches the media. The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating on the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ⅕ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, halfway between the branching of the R1 and the Rs. Alae are highly reduced, not reaching the anterior margin of abdominal segment II. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of IV diverge uniformly towards the posterior. The posterior half of IV and segment V are parallel-sided and are the widest portion of the abdomen. Segment VI and VII are variable depending on the environmental conditions, with wild collected females (such as in the paratype; Fig. 32A) having segments VI and VII strongly converging and VII ending with a small bulge on the posterior margin with a final width about the same as the anterior margin of segment VIII, vs. captive bred individuals generally having VI and VII subparallel and ending with VII having a distinct lobe which is notably wider than the anterior margin of segment VIII (Fig. 33A). Segments VIII-X converge uniformly to the rounded apex. Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is long and narrow reaching ca. ½ onto segment X (Fig. 34H). Gonapophyses VIII are long and significantly broad, each about as wide as the subgenital plate projection, with their tips reaching the apex of segment X, gonapophyses IX are smaller and slender, hidden below the gonapophyses VIII (Fig. 34H). Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a heavily granular surface and a setae throughout (Fig. 34H). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobes notably wider than the interior lobe with a rounded obtuse angle (Fig. 34D). Exterior lobe margin is not marked by teeth and is instead rather smooth or at most slightly granular (Fig. 34D). Profemoral interior lobe ca. 2 × as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, with an obtuse angle, and marked with five prominent teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with large looping gaps between the teeth (Fig. 34D). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end in a slightly bent lobe slightly weighted to the distal ½ and marked with two or three small serrate teeth on the distal ½ only. Interior and exterior lobes are of a similar width, or the exterior is slightly wider. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs smoothly end to end, is marked with six or seven serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc, and is about as wide as the mesofemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end, but is slightly wider on the distal half, and has six or seven serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe only. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks dentation. Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is at ca. 2 × as wide as the protibial shaft. The lobe is distinctly triangular with the broadest point distal to the midline (Fig. 34D). Pro-, meso-, and meta- tibiae lacking exterior lobes; meso-, and meta- tibiae lack interior lobes as well.</p><p>Measurements of paratype females [mm]. Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 81.8-94.1, length/width of head 8.0-9.7/6.4-7.4, antennae 3.3-4.2, pronotum 4.6-5.7, mesonotum 6.7-9.1, length of tegmina 45.4-57.5, length of alae 6.0-7.2, greatest width of abdomen 30.7-34.4, profemora 17.9-21.6, mesofemora 13.8-15.9, metafemora 16.2-18.6, protibiae 11.1-11.8, mesotibiae 10.1-10.7, metatibiae 13.6-13.7.</p><p>Male. Coloration. Coloration description based on live captive reared males (Fig. 33B) and the male nymphs found in the wild (Fig. 32B). Captive males are generally mostly pale green throughout with the margins of the legs, thorax, and abdomen a reddish brown, and slightly transparent eye spots on abdominal segment V. The wild caught nymphs had these areas typically darker, more dark red than reddish brown and dark eyespots on abdominal segment V.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, with a vertex that is weakly granular; posteromedial tubercle small but notable and slightly raised above the head capsule (Fig. 35D). Frontal convexity stout with a few short setae near the apex. Compound eyes large and bulbous, occupying ca. ⅖ of the head capsule lateral margins and significantly protruding from the head capsule (Fig. 35D). There are three well-developed ocelli between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 23 segments. The scapus and pedicellus are bare, all other segments are covered in dense, thin, pale setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal three segments have shorter darker setae. Thorax. Pronotum anterior margin is distinctly concave and lateral margins are slightly convex and converge to a straight posterior margin that is slightly&gt; ½ width of the anterior rim (Fig. 35D). Anterior and lateral margins of the pronotum have moderate rims and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 35D). Face of the pronotum is slightly lumpy, has a distinct sagittal furrow, a pit just posterior to the center, a moderate perpendicular furrow just anterior to the central pit, and has a distinct pit on each side near the anterior margin (Fig. 35D). The prosternum surface is slightly granular. The mesosternum surface is marked densely with prominent nodes, with the largest along the sagittal plane and more prominent on the anterior margin, posterior margin with less prominent and slightly smaller nodes. Prescutum slightly longer than wide, with lateral margins slightly converging to the posterior which is ca. ¾ the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 35D). Lateral rims with nine or ten nodes of slightly varying size, none very large or prominent, but each marked with a single stiff seta protruding from the tip. The surface of the prescutum is notably granulose along the sagittal plane with lateral surfaces rather smooth (Fig. 35D). Prescutum anterior rim slightly granulose with no distinct central tubercle (Fig. 35E). Mesopleura narrow, only gradually diverging from the anterior to the posterior (Fig. 35D). Lateral margin granulose throughout, with only four or five slightly larger than the rest, but not significantly larger. The largest nodes along the mesopleura have a singular seta protruding from them like those on the prescutum margins. Face of the mesopleura smooth but slightly wrinkled and with two faint pits, one on the anterior margin and one near the middle of the mesopleura. Wings. Tegmina short, only reaching the anterior margin of abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein and terminates the earliest, ca. ⅖ of the way through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length and terminating just posterior to the middle of the wing, the second radius (R2) branches near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector (Rs) runs straight to the tegmina apex and terminates. The media (M) spans the entire length of the tegmina, terminating at the wing apex as the media anterior (MA) with the first media posterior (MP1) beginning and terminating near the tegmina mid length followed by the second media posterior (MP2) which begins ca. ⅔ of the way through the tegmina length and terminates near the posterior quarter of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) runs through the wing surface angled until it meets the margin ca. ⅓ of the way through the tegmina length and then runs along the margin as the two media posterior veins then meet it and fuse and the cubitus continues to run nearly to the wing apex. The first anal (1A) vein runs subparallel to the cubitus until it meets it slightly&gt; ⅓ of the way through the tegmina length and fuses with it. Alae well-developed in an oval fan configuration, reaching to the anterior margin of abdominal segment IX or halfway through it. Alae wing venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) spans ca. ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches ca. ⅖ of the way through into the radius 1 (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run slightly diverging for the first ⅓ of their length, parallel for the central portion until the terminal quarter where they converge and terminate on the wing margin near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other until the distal ⅙ of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing margin. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-7PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Segment II, parallel-sided, segment III and the anterior half of IV diverging, the posterior ½ of IV through segment V either parallel-sided or slightly diverging, VI through the apex converging to a blunt rounded apex. The margins of segments VIII-X have a line of setae along them (Fig. 35F). Genitalia. Poculum broad and rounded, ending in a rounded apex that passes beyond the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 35G). Cerci long and slender, with ca. ½ of their length extending out from under the anal abdominal segment. The cerci are slightly cupped, with a granulose surface and numerous short setae throughout (Fig. 35F). Vomer broad and stout with rounded sides converging to the apex which is armed with two upwards turning hooks, one at the apex which is larger and one lateral to it which is slightly smaller (Fig. 5H). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe a rounded arc without a distinct angle, slightly thinner than the interior lobe (at its widest slightly&gt; 2 × the greatest width of the profemoral shaft), and with the distal half marked by three or four small but sharp anteriorly pointing teeth (Fig. 35). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular, at its widest ca. 2½× as wide as the profemoral shaft at its widest. The profemoral interior lobe is generally marked with five, serrate, anteriorly pointing teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern, with shallow looping gaps between them, and occasionally marked with an extra tooth within the set (like as can be seen in Fig. 35C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end but with a more prominent bend near the distal ⅓ of the lobe which is marked with two or three small serrate teeth on the distal ⅓ only, with the proximal portion of the lobe smooth. The mesofemoral interior lobe at its widest is approximately the same width as the exterior lobe, but the proximal half is slightly wider than the proximal half of the exterior lobe. The distal half of the mesofemoral interior lobe is marked with six or seven small serrate teeth and the proximal half is rather smooth. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with six or seven small serrate teeth on the distal ½ only. Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a smooth triangle ca. 3 × as wide as the protibial shaft, with the widest point just distal to the midline, and all margins notably marked with short setae throughout (Fig. 35C). Mesotibiae and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes completely.</p><p>Measurements of holotype male [mm].

The lateral surfaces are flat but with the posterior half slightly wider than the anterior half. The dorsal surface is slightly convex, which gives the margin a slight undulating appearance when viewed from the lateral aspect as the middle is thinner than either end of the egg. When viewed from the lateral aspect; the ventral margin is also not straight but is instead with the posterior slightly protruding more than the anterior. All surfaces have numerous small sized pits throughout with short moss-like pinnae interspersed throughout the capsules surfaces with those on the margins and those on the dorsal surface slightly more prominent. Dorsal surface with irregular medium sized pitting and moss-like pinnae around the micropylar plate. Micropylar plate long, ca. 7/8 of the overall dorsal surface length, with the widest portion around the micropylar cup. Micropylar plate nearly symmetrical with the anterior and posterior thin and the area around the micropylar cup the widest point. Micropylar cup of moderate size and placed just slightly posterior to the micropylar plate midline. Operculum slightly ovular, with the outer margin with a distinct row of moss-like pinnae surrounding the operculum. Operculum is roundly raised with the height ca. ½ the operculum width. The overall color is light brown, with the moss-like pinnae sometimes slightly lighter in color.</p><p>Measurements including the extended pinnae</p><p>[mm]. Length (including operculum) 2.2, maximum width of capsule when viewed from lateral aspect 1.3 mm, length of micropylar plate 1.1 mm.</p><p>Newly hatched nymphs. (Fig. 9I). The body is made up of two general blocks of color, the legs, head, pronotum, and mesonotum are primarily chocolate brown and the mesonotum and abdomen are burnt red in color. Basitarsi are white and the remaining tarsal segments are burnt reddish. The tibiae only have interior lobes which smoothly span the full length and lack exterior lobes. The tibiae interior lobes are brown with two white patches on the proximal half only, the proximal most is notably larger. Interior and exterior femoral lobes are all about the same width, are smoothly arcing, and all have minimal serration. On the profemoral interior lobe there is a notable whitish patch, the exterior lobe and profemoral shaft itself are devoid of prominent white markings. The meso- and metafemoral interior lobes are similar in that they have a small white patch right at the proximal end, and then another white marking ca. ⅖ of the way through the length. The exterior meso- and metafemoral lobes only have one white patch located on the proximal ⅓, but notably wider than the interior lobe white patch. The meso- and metafemoral shafts lack white coloration. The abdomen is slender with segment II through the anterior ½ of IV diverging and the posterior ½ of IV-X converging.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Noun, from Greek mythology. Named for the tragic story of Icarus, son of Daedalus. During their escape from the island of Crete, Icarus flew too close to the sun and melted the wax wings his father built. We felt it was fitting that this mythological name is shared with this species that lacks the hindwings within the former Cryptophyllium celebicum species group (characterized by females with well-developed alae).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/875D19DBF6005EC786793DEA37E816C1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, our molecular analysis revealed that the Tatai and Siem Reap (Cambodia) populations instead represented an undescribed species distinct from Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. The recognition of this cryptic species from Cambodia, leaves many observational records&gt; from Laos, Thailand, and Cambodia without confirmed identification (represented by the bi-colored circles in our distribution map noting a record which, due to the lack of molecular confirmation, could represent either species; Fig. 2).</p><p>During GTI expeditions several nymphs ranging from L1 to subadult were collected on multiple closely situated guava trees behind a house near the start of the trail leading to Tatai falls. Nymphs were successfully reared to adulthood by Tim Bollens (Belgium). Strangely locals had never noticed the insects before due to their excellent camouflage (Fig. 37).</p><p>Interestingly, in 2006, an attempt was made to describe a Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. like species from Rayong, Thailand as ' Phyllium rayongii ' (Sorpongpaisal and Thanasinchayakul 2006). Cumming and Le Tirant (2020) note however that this name is a nomen nudum and therefore unavailable according to ICZN Article 16.4.1. (ICZN 1999). With this population rather geographically close to the type locality of Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. it is entirely possible that ' Phyllium rayongii ' may have been intended to represent a valid population, but with the lack of a holotype specimen to define this species it was never confirmed and is now a moot point.</p><p>Due to the cryptic nature of this new species, we hope that efforts will be undertaken in the future to molecularly sample from throughout Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia to determine with more clarity the geographic distributions where Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. occur.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Morphological differentiation of this species has proven to be difficult, with the only clear and consistent differences being ascertained through molecular analysis (Fig. 4).</p><p>Females are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov., Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. females based on the general shape of the abdomen, lobes of the legs, and the thorax. The later three species can be differentiated by their shorter alae reaching to abdominal segments II or III vs. Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. which has long alae reaching onto abdominal segment VI. We have yet to identify a reliable morphological feature between Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. as both species have long alae and at least for Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. there is significant intraspecific variation which often encompasses the range of Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. female variation.</p><p>Males are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov., Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov., Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. based on features of the thorax, tegmina, and lobes of the legs. Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. males can be differentiated from the first two species by the general shape of the abdomen as it is thinly elliptical with a maximum width only 30-34% the abdominal length in Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. vs. broadly elliptical or broadly spade-shaped with a maximum width ca. 38-45% the abdominal length in Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov., Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. males. Unfortunately, due to intraspecific variation within Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov., Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. we could not identify a reliable morphological feature for differentiation males based on morphology alone.</p><p>This difficulty for differentiating a single sex alone emphasizes the importance of captive rearing of specimens to reveal the informative set of female, male, and egg morphology, and of course the importance of molecular comparison.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only confirmed from two Cambodian provinces, Koh Kong Province (Tatai) and Siem Reap Province (Kbai Spean and Phnom Kulen N.P., Forest Near Prean Thom). It is likely that other nearby localities may also represent this species, but due to a lack of molecular data we cannot at this time confirm them.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration description is based upon photographs of living individuals (Fig. 38A, B) reared by Tim Bollens (Belgium). Overall coloration pale mint green with variable slight highlighting of orange or tan coloration throughout. Compound eyes are slightly more yellow with tan highlights. Antennae are tan. The prescutum and mesopleura are reddish tan with pale cream granulation throughout. Throughout the head, legs, and body there is slight speckling as granulation is slightly paler in color than the surface it is found on. In lighter individuals, the venation of the tegmina is pale yellow to pale mint green (Fig. 38A) and in darker individuals the venation is yellow with highlights of orange interspersed throughout (Fig. 38B). Darker individuals also have variable reddish patches throughout the lobes of the legs and slightly darker coloration on the abdomen.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule slightly longer than wide, vertex with granulation throughout the surface, none as prominent as the posteromedial tubercle which is not notably wide but is distinctly taller than any other nodes on the head (Fig. 39E). Frontal convexity stout, marked throughout with slight granulation and several short setae. Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, but are significantly large, taking up slightly &lt;⅓ of the head capsule margins (Fig. 39E). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than the first antennomere. Antennae. Antennae consisting of nine segments, with the terminal segment slightly longer than the preceding two segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 39C). Antennomeres I-VIII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere is covered densely in slightly shorter setae. Thorax. Pronotum slightly wider than long, with gently concave anterior margin and slightly convex lateral margins, which converge to a slightly convex posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 39E). The pronotum surface is marked with granulation throughout, a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior and lateral to the pit (Fig. 39E). The pronotum has a prominent anterior rim and weakly formed lateral and posterior rims (Fig. 39E). Prosternum and the anterior half of the mesosternum are marked with stout and numerous nodes, with the remainder of the mesosternum and the metasternum lacking prominent nodes (Fig. 39B). Prescutum about as long as wide with lateral rims with 11 or 12 lumpy tubercles ranging in size from small to medium with granulation present throughout the length giving the margins a tough textured appearance (Fig. 39E). Prescutum anterior rim not strongly protruding and marked with a granular surface (Fig. 39F). Prescutum surface with 14 or 15 distinct nodes predominantly along the sagittal plane, with those on the anterior half slightly larger than the rest (Fig. 39E). Mesopleura are narrow and parallel on the anterior ⅓, and then bend distinctly and diverge uniformly throughout their length; lateral margin with 13-16 small to medium lumpy tubercles, of which three or four are slightly larger than the rest, but most are small and variable in shape, giving the margin a rough textured appearance (Fig. 39E). Face of the mesopleura with granulation along the margin, with the remainder of the surface relatively smooth or with slight wrinkles. The surface of the mesopleura also has two distinct pits, one near the anterior ⅓ where the mesopleura bend, and one near the posterior ⅓ (Fig. 39E). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching onto abdominal segment VIII. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing and runs parallel with the wing for the first half of its length, and then bends towards the wing margin for the second half, terminating ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the tegmina with two subparallel branched veins. The first radius (R1) branches ca. ½ through the radius length and terminates ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length. The radial sector (Rs) branches from the end of the radius and runs angled to the wing margin where it terminates near the posterior ⅓ of the wing length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent radial sector branching which continues on as a short and thin radius to media crossvein (R-M). The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating close to the posterior ⅕ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) runs throughout the entire wing length simply, and then near the posterior ⅕ of the wing splits into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, at around the midline between the first radial branching and the radial sector branching. Alae well-developed, reaching abdominal segment VI. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of IV diverging, the posterior half of IV through the anterior half of VII parallel-sided (giving the abdomen a boxy appearance), the remainder of VII smoothly rounded and converging to the apex with segments VIII-X. Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is moderately broad, and extends ½ to ¾ of the way onto segment X, ending in a fine point (Fig. 39H). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, exceeding the apex of the abdomen with the tips slightly longer than the cerci, gonapophyses IX are thinner and shorter, hidden below gonapophyses VIII (Fig. 39H). Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a finely granular surface and moderately marked with a few short setae. Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe broad and smoothly rounded, ca. 1½ to ca. 2 × wider than the interior lobe (Fig. 39D). Margin of the profemoral exterior lobe with 10-12 small weakly formed teeth throughout the length (Fig. 39D). Profemoral interior lobe obtusely angled and typically marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with looping gaps between them, but occasionally individuals can have doubly serrate teeth or an extra small tooth between sets (Fig. 39D). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end but is weighted towards the distal half with a detectable bend and marked with four or five rounded teeth distributed on the distal half only. Interior and exterior lobes of a similar width. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs end to end smoothly with five or six small serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc which is slightly wider than the proximal half of the arc. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end and has five or six serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe which is slightly wider than the proximal half. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks notable teeth but the distal ⅓ can be slightly granular. Protibial interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is ca. 2½ the width of the protibiae shaft itself. The lobe is roundly triangular and is slightly wider on the distal half. Protibiae lacking a distinct exterior lobe. Mesotibiae and metatibiae lacking exterior and interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of paratype females [mm] (from Tatai, Cambodia). Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 83.3-90.0, length/width of head 8.4-8.7/6.6-7.1, antennae 4.1-4.6, pronotum 5.6-6.0, mesonotum 7.6-7.8, length of tegmina 52.8-53.6, length of alae 42.6 (only measured on one specimen, the others have the alae covered by the tegmina), greatest width of abdomen 31.3-36.2, profemora 19.1-21.4, mesofemora 15.1-15.4, metafemora 18.7-19.6, protibiae 12.5-12.6, mesotibiae 11.4-11.6, metatibiae 14.7-15.0.</p><p>Male. Coloration. Coloration description based on images of live males bred by Tim Bollens (Belgium). Overall coloration pale mint green throughout with highlighting of tan to orange (Fig. 39C). The areas most often with the orange highlighting are the tips of the antennae, margins of the lobes of the legs, the thorax, and the margins of the abdomen. Additionally, on more prominently colored individuals the base of the antennae and the posteromedial tubercle of the head capsule can also be colored. Compound eyes are a muddled tan to reddish.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, with a vertex that has moderate granulation throughout and a prominent but not broad posteromedial tubercle which is larger than any of the granules on the head capsule (Fig. 40E). Frontal convexity not particularly long but ending in a fine point and covered with sparse thin setae. Compound eyes large and bulbous, taking up ca. ⅖ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 40E). There are three moderately developed ocelli located between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes. Antennal fields about as wide as the scapus. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 25 segments, all segments except the scapus and pedicellus and terminal three segments are covered in dense setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal three segments are covered in dense short setae and the scapus and pedicellus are nearly completely bare. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin slightly concave and lateral margins that are straight or slightly convex and converging to a straight posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 40E). Anterior margin of the pronotum has a distinct rim, lateral margins have moderate rims, and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 40E). Face of the pronotum is marked by a distinct sagittal furrow and pit in the center, a granular surface, and a slight perpendicular furrow from the central pit. Prosternum is granulose throughout with small nodes of nearly even size. Mesosternum anterior half with nodes of a similar size to the prosternum and those on the posterior half slightly less prominent. The metasternum has a slightly wrinkled surface and sparse granulation. Prescutum longer than wide, with lateral margins slightly converging to the posterior (Fig. 40E). Lateral rims with small granulation throughout giving them a rough textured appearance, only three or four are slightly larger than the rest. Prescutum surface with granulation throughout with those along the sagittal plane slightly larger than the others. Prescutum anterior rim weakly formed but marked with a surface which is granular. Mesopleura narrow, almost parallel for the anterior quarter, and then only gradually diverge for the remainder of the length (Fig. 40E). Lateral margin lacking prominent tubercles, instead marked with sharp granulation throughout with only two or three slightly larger than the rest, giving the margins a rough textured appearance. Face of the mesopleura slightly wrinkled and with two faint divots, one near the anterior margin and one half-way through the length (Fig. 40D). Wings. Tegmina moderate length, reaching ⅓ to ½ onto abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates ca. ½ through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching &lt;ca. ½ through the wing length and terminating just distal to the midline, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length, and then the second media posterior (MP2) branches near the midline, and the media anterior (MA) runs to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus slightly &lt;⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well-developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching onto abdominal segments IX or X. Alae wing venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) is long, spanning slightly&gt; ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches ca. ⅓ of the way through into the first radius (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run gently diverging for most of their length and then converge at the apex of the wing where they terminate near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other throughout the wing until the distal ⅙ of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing apex where they terminate near the radial sector. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-6PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Margins of abdominal segment II either slightly converging or parallel-sided. Abdominal segments III through the anterior ⅔ of IV diverging. Segment V with parallel margins and VI-X converging slowly at first then more prominently for the terminal three segments, giving the abdomen a spade-shaped appearance. Genitalia. Poculum broad, posteriorly rounded and with a shallow notch medioapically; slightly passes the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 40G). Cerci long and slender, extending from under the anal abdominal segment, slightly cupped with a granular surface and numerous short setae throughout (Fig. 40F). Vomer broad and stout with sides evenly converging and terminating in an upward hooking apical spine with a smaller hook next to the base of the primary spine (Fig. 5D). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe about the same width as the interior lobe or slightly wider, smoothly arcing from end to end and marked with a granular margin and five or six small serrate teeth on the distal half only (Fig. 40C). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular and marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with prominent looping gaps between the sets and the middle tooth larger than the others (Fig. 40C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end, but is slightly more bent than the interior lobe and is broader on the distal half which can either be lacking dentation or have three or four dulled teeth, and the proximal half that is rather thin and lacking teeth. Mesofemoral interior lobe of a similar width to the exterior lobe, is broader on the distal end and is marked with five or six serrate teeth mostly situated on the distal ⅓ to ½ of the lobe. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation, and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with eight or nine serrate teeth on the slightly wider distal half. Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a smoothly rounded triangle with the widest portion ca. 3- 3½× as wide as the protibial shaft and situated just distal to the midline. Meso- and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes completely.</p><p>Measurements of holotype male [mm].

(Fig. 41). The lateral surfaces are flat with a length ca. 1½× the width with parallel margins, giving the capsule a rectangular appearance. All surfaces have numerous small to medium sized pits throughout, the lateral surface has around 35 pits (mostly on the smaller end of the spectrum) arranged in no detectable order, some more closely spaced than others. In addition, between the pits the surfaces are covered with short moss-like pinnae with the pinnae along the margins slightly longer than the pinnae on the other surfaces. The dorsal surface is marked with six or seven slightly irregular medium sized pits on each half running the length of the capsule with short moss-like pinnae around the micropylar plate and between the pits. The micropylar plate is not overly long, occupying ca. ½ of the dorsal surface length but not perfectly centered, with ca. ⅓ of the unoccupied space below and ⅔ above the micropylar plate. The micropylar cup is the widest portion of the micropylar plate and is located ca. ⅓ of the dorsal surface length from the posterior. The micropylar plate is approximately teardrop-shaped with the anterior portion longer and thinner than the posterior after the micropylar cup. Operculum slightly ovular, with the outer margin encircled with short moss-like pinnae surrounding the operculum and four or five medium pits surrounding the dorsal and lateral margins. The operculum is roundly raised with a height slightly&gt; ½ operculum width. This rounded raised cap is marked with a sagittal raised row of pinnae similar in length to those along the capsule margins. The rounded raised cap is not perfectly centered and instead the rounded projection is shifted slightly towards the ventral surface. The overall egg color is tan to light brown, with the moss-like pinnae sometimes slightly lighter in color.</p><p>Measurements including the extended pinnae [mm].

(Fig. 4) a species also only at the present known from southern Vietnam (Fig. 2). Interestingly, these molecular sister species are morphologically drastically different, perhaps due to their geographic sympatry. During a GTI joint expeditions two small nymphs were collected in Ta Dung N.P. on the forest edge adjacent to a coffee plantation. Tim Bollens (Belgium) reared one nymph to adulthood, thus revealing the male morphology (Fig. 42).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Female Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. based on the wide profemoral exterior lobe with an acute angle and broad boxy abdomen. From Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov., the easiest observed difference is the structure of the thorax, with the mesopleura of Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. notably narrower on the anterior half vs. the mesopleura of Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. reaching nearly to the anterior margin of the prescutum with straight margins (Fig. 42E). From Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. the female subgenital plates easily differentiate these species as Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. has a long subgenital plate with a point which exceeds the apex of the terminal abdominal segment (Fig. 63B) vs. Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. where the subgenital plate is short, reaching no more than ½ through the terminal abdominal segment (Fig. 42H).</p><p>Male Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. are similar morphologically to Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. due to the broad spade-shaped abdomen and the profemoral lobe shapes. These species can be differentiated by the length of their tegmina (only reaching onto abdominal segment III in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. but reaching halfway onto segment IV in Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov.); and they can be differentiated by the shape of the mesopleura as they are broad and nearly straight margined in Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. but slightly narrower on the anterior in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. males (Fig. 44C).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Southern Vietnam: presently known from three provinces: the type locality of Lam Dong Province, Bao Lam, Dambri; the male paratype record from Dak Nong Province, Ta Dung N.P.; an observational record from Dak Lak Province, Chu Yang Sin N.P.; and paratype records&gt; from Dak Lak Province.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration description is based on photos of the holotype female shortly after being preserved. Nearly the entire body was of a uniform lime-green without differing colored markings (all legs and even wing venation a similar color to the rest of the body). Only the compound eyes were slightly yellow and not the same shade of green as the rest of the body.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule longer than wide, vertex with a moderately granular surface, and the posteromedial tubercle which is three or four times larger than the most prominent granules on the capsule. Frontal convexity broad and stout, notably shorter than the length of the first antennomere, and with several long, thin, clear setae across the surface. Compound eyes are not large, only slightly protruding from the head capsule and with a width of ca. ¼ the head capsule length (Fig. 42C). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields wider than the first antennomere but not protruding back farther than the frontal suture. Antennae. Antennae consist of nine segments, with the terminal segment approximately the same length as the previously three segments combined (Fig. 42D). The eighth antennal segment has a distinct furrow around the middle which makes the segment appear to be two separate segments (giving the antennae a ten segmented appearance), but this furrow appears to only be superficial (Fig. 42D). Antennomeres I-III sparsely marked with thin transparent setae, similar to those found on the frontal convexity, but slightly shorter in length. Antennomere IV is short, disk-like, and wider than the following segments, and interestingly has a base which is narrow and somewhat longer than other congeneric antennal segments IV, giving it a raised appearance (Fig. 42D). The terminal antennomere and the distal half of segment VIII (distal to the midline furrow) are covered in dense, stout, setae. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin slightly concave and lateral margins that are relatively straight, converging to a narrow, straight posterior margin that is ca. ½ the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 42E). The pronotum surface is smooth, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior and lateral to the pit, no prominent wrinkles or granulation. The pronotum has a prominent anterior rim and moderate lateral rims, the posterior is lacking a rim. Prosternum with notable nodes throughout the surface, relatively evenly spaced. Mesosternum with prominent nodes on the anterior margin, followed by moderate nodes on the anterior ⅓ of the surface, with the remainder with dispersed, weak granulation which continues onto the metasternum. Prescutum notably longer than wide, with lateral margins running parallel to the posterior margin giving it a distinctly rectangular appearance. Lateral rims with five or six medium sized tubercles situated on the anterior ⅔, with only small granulation on the remainder. Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, with the surface granular and lacking a prominent sagittal tubercle. Prescutum surface with granulation throughout with those along the sagittal plane slightly larger (Fig. 42E). Mesopleura start ca. ⅓ down the prescutum and evenly diverge with straight lateral margins. Lateral margin with six or seven major and distinctly pointed tubercles and six or seven smaller tubercles intermixed amongst them. This mix of tubercles is only prominent along the anterior ⅔ of the length with the remaining ⅓ lacking notable tubercles and instead marked with consistent granulation (Fig. 42E). Face of the mesopleura with slight wrinkles throughout most of the surface and a few irregular nodes along the lateral margin, as well as two faint divots, one on the anterior margin and one closer to the center. Wings. Tegmina reaching slightly past the anterior margin of abdominal segment VII. Tegmina venation is rather typical for the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing and runs parallel with the wing for the first half of its length, and then bends towards the wing margin for the second half. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the tegmina with two subparallel branched veins. The first radius (R1) branches ca. ½ through the radius length and terminates ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. The radial sector (Rs) branches from the end of the radius and runs angled to the wing margin where it terminates near the wing midline length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent radial sector branching which continues on as a short and thin radius to media crossvein (R-M). The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating close to the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) runs throughout the entire wing length simply, and then near the posterior ⅕ of the wing becomes bifurcate into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, at around the midline between the first radial branching and the radial sector branching. Alae short, only 21.8 mm long. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of IV diverging, posterior half of IV through the anterior ⅓ of VII parallel. Abdominal segment VII with a distinct looping lobe which meets abdominal segment VIII which is notably narrower. Segments VIII-X uniformly converge to a broad rounded apex. Genitalia. Projecting portion of the subgenital plate stout, beginning at the anterior margin of abdominal segment IX and projecting with nearly straight sides to just under the anterior margin of the terminal abdominal segment (Fig. 42H). Gonapophyses VIII are long and broad with a dagger-like shape (parallel-sided at first and then after ca. ½ of the length uniformly converging to the point) with the points just projecting from under the terminal abdominal segment (Fig. 42H). Gonapophyses IX are smaller and not visible from under the large gonapophyses VIII. Cerci strongly pointed and relatively flat (not strongly cupped) with weakly crenate margins, and the dorsal surface heavily granular and marked by thin transparent setae throughout (Fig. 42G, H). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobes broad, at its broadest ca. 2 × wider than the interior lobe, and distinctly serrate throughout the entire length (with 13-17 small, pointed teeth). The proximal edge is slightly concave and the distal edge is smoothly convex, therefore giving the lobe a distinct recurved appearance and an acute exterior angle (Fig. 42F). Interior profemoral lobe ca. 2½× the width of the profemoral shaft at its widest and with doubly serrate, large, triangular teeth. The largest teeth are grouped into a two-one-two pattern with large looping gaps between these groupings, with these large gaps also finely serrate, not smooth (Fig. 42F). Interior mesofemoral lobe arcs evenly weighted from end to end, and at its widest is approximately the same width as the mesofemoral shaft itself. The interior mesofemoral lobe is finely serrate for ca. ¾ of its distal length with seven or eight teeth. Mesofemoral exterior lobe is also approximately at its widest as wide as the mesofemoral shaft, but the exterior lobe is distinctly bent in the center with straight margins, not smoothly arcing from end to end. On the distal half of the lobe only there are six or seven small serrate teeth. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end and has five or six dull teeth pointing distally. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks dentation. Protibiae with a thin but notable exterior lobe on the distal ⅕ only. Protibial interior lobe spans the entire length as a broad scalene triangle with the broad end on the distal half of the protibiae. Mesotibiae simple, completely lacking lobes. Metatibiae lacking interior lobes, exterior is marked by a very slender lobe which only occupies the distal ¼ of the shaft.</p><p>Measurements of holotype female [mm]. Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 99.0, length/width of head 8.9/6.8, antennae 5.1, pronotum 5.9, mesonotum 6.5, length of tegmina 55.7, length of alae 21.8, greatest width of abdomen 41.5, profemora 22.8, mesofemora 16.0, metafemora 19.1, protibiae 11.2, mesotibiae 11.8, metatibiae 15.0.</p><p>Male. Coloration. Coloration description based on the captive reared paratype male when it was alive (Fig. 43). Overall coloration mint-green throughout with highlights of tan coloration on the distal half of the protibiae, along all femoral lobe margins, the frontal convexity, the margins of the thorax, the base of the antennae and the distal tips of each longer antennomere, and intermittently along the tegmina and alae sclerotized veins. Abdominal segment V has a slightly darker patch and a transparent eye spot on each side of the midline. Compound eyes are pale yellow with slight orange marbling throughout.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule approximately as long as wide, with a vertex that is only slightly granular with no discernable pattern (Fig. 44C). The posteromedial tubercle is not broad and is only weakly raised from the head capsule. Compound eyes are large and bulbous, taking up ca. ⅖ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 44C). There are three well-developed ocelli between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes (Fig. 44C). Antennal fields are about as wide as the scapus. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consist of 29 segments. The scapus and pedicellus are nearly completely bare, lacking long setae. The following segments except the terminal three are covered in dense setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide, and the terminal three segments are covered in dense short setae. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin slightly concave and lateral margins that are straight and converging to a slightly curved posterior margin that is ca. ½ the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 44C). Anterior and lateral margins have moderate rims and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 44C). Face of the pronotum is marked by a distinct pit in the center with a furrow anterior to the pit along the sagittal plane, weakly formed furrows lateral to the central pit, and a smooth surface with only slight granulation in no detectable pattern (Fig. 44C). The prosternum is slightly granulose throughout and the anterior ⅓ of the mesosternum surface is marked with more prominent nodes, with the remainder of the surface with fewer and smaller nodes (Fig. 44B). Prescutum longer than wide, with lateral margins slightly converging to the posterior (Fig. 44C). Lateral rims with eight or nine small tubercles (Fig. 44C). Prescutum surface slightly raised along the sagittal plane with six or seven nodes of varying size, with the remainder of the surface with only slight granulation throughout. Prescutum anterior margin weakly formed and with a granular surface, lacking a prominent central tubercle. Mesopleura narrow on the anterior quarter of the length but then gently diverging with nearly straight margins to the posterior (Fig. 44C). Mesopleura lateral margin with three large conical tubercles, three or five small tubercles, and four or five nodes throughout the length (Fig. 44C). Face of the mesopleura slightly wrinkled, with slight granulation throughout, and with two faint divots, one on the anterior margin and one near the midline. Wings. Tegmina moderate length, extending halfway through abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates the earliest slightly &lt; ½ through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length and terminating near the midline, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) slightly distal to the midline, and then the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length, then the second media posterior (MP2) branching near the midline, and the media anterior (MA) runs to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well-developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching the middle of abdominal segment VIII. Abdomen. Abdominal segment II gently diverging, III through the anterior half of segment IV diverging to the widest portion of the abdomen. The posterior of IV-V parallel-sided giving the abdomen a broad spade-shaped appearance. Segments VI-X uniformly converging with slightly undulating margins (Fig. 44B). Genitalia. Poculum broad, and ends in a broadly rounded apex that slightly passes the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 44G). Cerci long and slender, with&gt; ½ their length extending from underneath the terminal abdominal segment (Fig. 44F), relatively flat, covered in a heavily granulose surface and with equally granular margins, and surface with numerous short setae (Fig. 44G). Vomer stout with slightly rounded sides converging to an apex with two side by side thick apical hooks which are the same size and hook upwards into the paraproct (Fig. 43C). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe broader than the interior lobe, arcing end to end with a distinct rounded bend in the center, with the proximal half margin with a distinctly granular surface, and the distal half with six small serrate teeth (Fig. 44E). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular, at least 3 × wider than the profemoral shaft, and marked with five large, serrate teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with looping gaps between them (Fig. 44E). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end, is slightly wider than the mesofemoral shaft, but with the widest portion on the distal ⅓ which is marked with granulation or with one or two weakly formed teeth. Mesofemoral interior lobe is slightly thinner than the exterior lobe and is slightly broader on the distal end which is marked with six serrate teeth. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation, and has a straight margin hugging the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end, with the distal half wider than the proximal half, and the distal half is marked with seven or eight serrate teeth on the distal half. Protibiae with a small but notable exterior lobe on the anterior ⅕ which is no wider than the width of the protibial shaft (Fig. 44E). Protibial interior lobe reaching end to end in a smoothly rounded triangle with the widest portion on the distal third ca. 3 × as wide as the protibial shaft (Fig. 44E). Meso- and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes.</p><p>Measurements of reared paratype male [mm]. Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 79.7, length/width of head 4.9/3.9, antennae 41.8, pronotum 3.7, mesonotum 5.7, length of tegmina 24.4, length of alae 57.5, greatest width of abdomen 26.5, profemora 16.4, mesofemora 11.4, metafemora 13.7, protibiae 9.1, mesotibiae 7.7, metatibiae 10.9.</p><p>Eggs. (Fig. 45). When viewed from the anterior the egg capsule cross section is rounded pentagonal, therefore the lateral surfaces are raised into dorsolateral and ventrolateral surfaces. All surfaces and margins slightly undulate giving the egg an overall lumpy appearance. The ventrolateral surface is marked by four large, evenly spaced pits from the anterior to the posterior in a singular line. The dorsolateral surface has five large pits, arranged with one on the anterior, one on the posterior, and three in the middle spaced out in a two-one pattern. Both lateral surfaces are primarily bare but do have sparse and small moss-like pinnae between the pits. The dorsal surface is marked with seven medium sized pits total (one on the anterior end along the sagittal plane at the apex of the micropylar plate, followed by three on each slide of the plate with broad spacing between them ending with the posterior most near the base of the capsule). The dorsal surface is also marked throughout with short moss-like pinnae around the micropylar plate, with the area immediately around each pit bare. The micropylar plate is long, ca. 5/7 of the overall dorsal surface length with the micropylar cup situated on the posterior ⅓ of the length. The micropylar plate is thin with the widest portion the area around the micropylar cup. The operculum is slightly ovular with a surface that is roundly raised and a height slightly &lt; ½ the operculum width. The operculum is marked intermittently with moss-like pinnae similar in shape but slightly smaller than those found on the rest of the capsule, as well as marked with two medium sized pits (one on each side of the sagittal plane). The overall egg color is dark brown, with the moss-like pinnae light brown in color so they stand out clearly on the surface.</p><p>Measurements including the extended pinnae [mm]. Length (including operculum): 5.2; maximum width of capsule when viewed from lateral aspect 3.8; length of micropylar plate 3.0.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Patronym.

Not only do the illustrations clearly show similar morphology, but one of the specimens is also from the locality of Dayao Mountain, Jinxiu, Guangxi. The illustrated female (figures 10-12; Liu 1993) clearly shows gently rounded lobes on abdominal segment VII, the same tegmina length, a small but notable metatibial exterior lobe on the distal end, the same shape/length features of the genitalia (Fig. 47E), mesothorax shape (Fig. 47D), similar rounded profemoral exterior lobes (Fig. 47C), and the VIII antennal segment which is notably longer than the other preceding individual segments (Fig. 47B).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. due to the tibial and femoral shapes (including small exterior pro- and metatibial anteriorly situated lobes), alae long (reaching abdominal segment VI), a seventh abdominal segment which is slightly lobed, and similar genitalia shapes and lengths of features. These species can be differentiated by the mesopleura as they are broader on the anterior end in Cryptophyllium liyananae sp. nov. and slightly narrower in Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. and the overall size as Cryptophyllium liyananae sp. nov. are 88.0-92.0 mm long and the holotype Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. is 75.0 mm long. Males are presently unknown.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Presently only confirmed from two localities in Guangxi Province, Liuzhou prefecture-level city (Fig. 46A, C) and Guilin prefecture-level city (Fig. 46B). The other specimens within Liu (1993) with varying locality data which may represent additional localities have not been reviewed so it is possible that these may represent other species or range expansions.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration descriptions are based upon photos of the live individuals which became the type material herein described (Fig. 46A, C). The overall coloration is pale mint green, with highlights of yellow, orange, and red. The antennae, interior profemoral lobe margins, and the margins of the terminal abdominal segments are red. The mesopleura margins, veins of the tegmina, and exterior profemoral lobe margins are orange to yellow.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, vertex smooth (Fig. 47D). The posteromedial tubercle is the only notable feature on the head capsule. Frontal convexity broad for the posterior half then narrowing on the anterior half, about as long as the first antennomere, and with slight granulation on the dorsal surface and several setae present which are longer than any setae on the antennae. Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, taking up ca. ¼ of the length of the lateral head capsule margins (Fig. 47D). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than the first antennomere and slightly shallower than the first antennomere is tall (Fig. 47B). Antennae. Antennae consisting of nine segments, with the terminal segment slightly shorter than the preceding two segment lengths combined (Fig. 47B). Antennomeres I-VIII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere is more densely covered in stout, brown setae. The pars stridens of antennomere III has 46 or 47 teeth. Thorax. Pronotum with gently concave anterior margin and straight lateral margins, which converge to a convex posterior margin that is ½ the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 47D). The pronotum surface is smooth, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior, posterior, and lateral to the pit (Fig. 47D). The pronotum has a prominent anterior rim and weakly formed lateral and posterior rims, all of which are relatively smooth (Fig. 47D). Prosternum and the mesosternum with stout and numerous nodes, with the central area of the mesosternum with less nodes and relatively smooth. Metasternum with granulation reduced and only minimal. Prescutum anterior margin as wide as the presuctum is long, with margins slightly narrowing on the anterior ⅓ and then running parallel to the posterior margin which is slightly narrower than the anterior margin (Fig. 47D). Lateral rims with 7-9 short tubercles which are all about the same size (Fig. 47D). Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, with a surface that is granular, lacking a singular prominent sagittal tubercle (Fig. 47D). Prescutum surface with minimal granulation throughout, with those along the sagittal plane only slightly larger (Fig. 47D). Mesopleura beginning near the anterior margin of the prescutum and evenly diverging; lateral margin with 9-13 tubercles which are variable in size, with three larger than the rest (Fig. 47D). Face of the mesopleura relatively smooth, and with two notable divots, one near the anterior margin and another ca. ⅗ of the way through the length (Fig. 47D). Wings. Tegmina reaching ca. ½ through abdominal segment VII. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing, is distinctly bent in the center, and terminates ca. ¼ of the way through the wing length. The radius (R) spans the anterior half of the forewing with two subparallel branched veins; radius 1 (R1) terminates ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length, and the radial sector (Rs) terminates in the center of the wing at the widest portion. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thinner R-M crossvein that does not appear to solidly connect the two veins fading as it reaches the media. The media (M) is bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating on the posterior ⅓ of the wing. In some individuals there is a weak continuation of the media as a thin crossvein to the cubitus, but this was not present in all individuals observed. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ⅓ to ¼ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, only slightly past the branching distance of the first radius from the radius. Alae well-developed, reaching abdominal segment VI (41.0-43.0 mm long). Abdomen. Abdominal shape relatively stable between all females observed. Segments II through the anterior ⅓ of IV evenly diverging, with the posterior ⅔ of segment IV the widest segment. Segments V-VI are slightly subparallel, converging gently to the posterior, giving the abdomen a slight narrowing appearance. Segment VII is distinctly rounded to the terminal three segments which are notably narrower than the previous segments (segment VIII on the anterior is slightly&gt; ½ width of the widest portion of the abdomen). Segments VIII-X converge to the apex which is broad and rounded. Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is moderately broad, and extends ca. ⅔ of the way onto segment X, ending in a fine point (Fig. 47E). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, with their tips notably exceeding the apex of the abdomen, and slightly shorter than the tips of the cerci; gonapophyses IX are slender and long, extending ca. ¾ of the way onto segment X (Fig. 47E). Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a heavily granular surface (Fig. 47E). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe broad (broader than the interior lobe), approximately right angled, and with a rounded exterior angle. The margin is marked by 7-9 small serrate teeth throughout the length, none prominent (Fig. 47C). Profemoral interior lobe narrower than the exterior lobe (only ca. 3 × the greatest width of the profemoral shaft) and with a slightly obtuse angle giving the interior lobe a triangular appearance marked by five teeth on the distal margin (Fig. 47C). These teeth are arranged in a two-one-two pattern with the exterior pairs closer together and with a shallow gap between them, and the gap to the center tooth is deeper and wider than these exterior pairs (Fig. 47C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end as a rounded triangle, but is slightly weighted towards the distal ½ and marked with two or three small serrate teeth distributed on the distal half only. Mesofemoral exterior lobe is slightly wider than the interior lobe. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs end to end more evenly than the exterior lobe, is marked with five or six small serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end but is significantly more heavily weighted on the distal half and has six or seven serrate teeth on the broader distal half of the lobe. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft. Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is at its widest ca. 2 × the width of the protibiae shaft itself. The lobe is distinctly triangular and widest on the distal half. There is a small but notable exterior protibial lobe on the distal quarter of the length, but this is only ca. ½ as wide as the protibial shaft itself. Mesotibiae simple, lacking lobes completely. Metatibiae lacks an interior lobe, but does have a small but notable anteriorly situated exterior lobe.</p><p>Measurements of holotype female [mm].

The lateral margins have slightly longer pinnae than the faces, but not drastically. Lateral surfaces slightly raised along the center of the length of the egg, and the entire surface has various shallow pitting in no detectable pattern. Micropylar plate spans the entire dorsal surface, with the thickest portion near the posterior ⅓ around the micropylar cup. The remainder of the micropylar plate is narrower, but not thin, at the thinnest still ca. ½ of the width of the widest portion.

Figures 6E, 48, 49</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>Holotype ♀: "Coll. I.R.Sc.N.B., Vietnam, Ninh Thuan prov., Nui Chua N. P., 11°42'N 109°09'E, 3-9.VII.2014, night coll. Leg. J. Constant and J.

P., 11°42'N 109°09'E, 3-9.VII.2014, night coll. Leg. J. Constant and J. Bresseel, GTI project I.G.:32.779" (VNMN).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species was collected on a night walk in 2014 within Nui Chua National Park by Jérôme Constant (RBINS) and Joachim Bresseel (RBINS) (Fig. 48). Unfortunately, only two females were found, and this species could not be brought into breeding to reveal details about the egg, male, or freshly hatched nymph morphology. This is one of the many apparently highly endemic species within southern Vietnam, and we hope that future expeditions to this region reveal the male morphology and the range of this species with more clarity.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically most similar to Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. due to their general femoral lobe shape, abdominal shape, femoral lobe spination, and thorax spination. When finer details are observed however these species can easily be differentiated. Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. have slightly shorter alae which only reach onto the anterior of abdominal segment III, whereas the other species have longer alae reaching to the middle of segment III or even to the anterior margin of segment IV. Additionally, the antennae readily differentiate these three species as Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. has antennal segments V, VI, and VII with ventral margins which project past the margin of segment VIII, giving the antennae a slightly lamellate appearance (Fig. 6E), vs. the other two species which have these segments ventral margin flush with the ventral margin of segment VIII (Fig. 6B, F).</p><p>Males are presently unknown, but due to the adult morphology we expect that they likely look similar to Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. males.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from Nui Chua N.P., in Ninh Thuan Province, Vietnam.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration description is based upon the living type material (Fig. 48). Overall coloration is pale green throughout. The antennae, compound eyes, interior profemoral lobe margin, small patches along the protibial interior lobe, and the anterior of the prescutum margins are orange to red, but these areas are only sparsely marked.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, vertex relatively smooth with the only notable feature being the posteromedial tubercle which is finely pointed (Fig. 49E). Frontal convexity broad and blunt, with a slightly granular surface. Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, and are not particularly large, taking up slightly &lt; ¼ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 49E). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than the width of the first antennomere. Antennae. Antennae consisting of nine segments, with the terminal segment about the same length as the preceding two segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 49C). Antennomeres I-VII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere and antennomere VIII are covered in stout, brown setae (Fig. 49C). Antennomeres V-VII ventral margins project farther than the ventral margin of segment VIII, therefore giving the antennae a slight lamelatte appearance (Fig. 6E). Thorax. Pronotum with gently concave anterior margin and slightly convex lateral margins, which converge to a straight posterior margin that is slightly &lt;half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 49E). The pronotum surface is smooth, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior and lateral to the pit (Fig. 49E). The pronotum has moderately formed anterior and lateral rims and a weakly formed posterior rim, all of which are relatively smooth (Fig. 49E). Prosternum and the anterior half of the mesosternum are covered with numerous nodes, the metasternum has lateral margins which are slightly granular, and the central area is relatively smooth. Prescutum longer than wide, lateral rims with four or five small tubercles on the anterior ⅓, the remainder only has nodes throughout, giving the margin a rough textured appearance (Fig. 49E). Prescutum anterior rim not strongly protruding, rim surface is granular, lacking a large sagittal spine (Fig. 49E). Prescutum surface granular, with those along the sagittal plane slightly larger than the rest (Fig. 49E). Mesopleura begin ca. ⅓ of the way through the prescutum length and evenly diverge; lateral margin with seven or eight small tubercles and several nodes interspersed (Fig. 49E). Face of the mesopleura smooth or slightly wrinkled, with two notable divots, one on the anterior margin and one near the middle (Fig. 49E). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching ½ through abdominal segment VII. Tegmina venation; the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing, running parallel with the margin for the first half, and then bending and running towards the margin. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the forewing with two subparallel branched veins; the first radius (R1) branches ca. ¼ of the way through the wing length, terminates ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length, and the radial sector (Rs) branches ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length and terminates near the distal ⅓ of the wing length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thin R-M crossvein that weakly connects the two veins. The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating near to the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ⅕ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, at the length about midway between the splitting of the R1 and Rs. Alae short, with their apex only just passing the posterior margin of abdominal segment III or slightly passing onto the anterior margin of abdominal segment IV. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of IV diverging. The posterior half of segment IV through segment VI are parallel, giving the abdomen a boxy appearance. Abdominal segment VII has a slightly rounded margin, no notable protruding lobe present. Segments VIII-X are notably narrower than the previous segments, and have converging margins to the broad rounded apex (Fig. 49G). Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is moderately broad, and extends ca. ¾ of the way onto segment X with straight margins ending in a fine point (Fig. 49H). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, exceeding the apex of abdominal segment X; gonapophyses IX are shorter and narrower, hidden below (Fig. 49H). Cerci only slightly cupped, with a granular surface and margins, and few detectable setae (Fig. 49G). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe broad, rounded, and obtusely angled, smoothly arcing from end to end, ca. ⅓ again wider than the width of the interior lobe (Fig. 49D). Edge of the profemoral exterior lobe granular, or with a slightly serrate surface of four or five very small teeth (Fig. 49D). Profemoral interior lobe ca. 2½× as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, obtusely angled, and marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with shallow gaps between them (Fig. 49D). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end but is slightly bent in the center, weighted towards the distal ½, with a smooth proximal margin and a slightly lumpy distal half appearing to be weakly formed teeth. Interior and exterior mesofemoral lobes about the same width. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs smoothly end to end with six or seven small serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc which is slightly wider than the proximal half of the arc. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end, with the distal half slightly wider than the proximal half and marked with seven or eight serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe only. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks dentation. Protibiae lacking an exterior lobe (Fig. 49D). Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is ca. 2½× the width of the protibiae shaft itself. The lobe is roundly triangular with the widest portion just slightly distal to the midline. Mesotibiae and metatibiae lacking exterior and interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of holotype female [mm].

See Cumming and Le Tirant (2020) for a detailed list of material examined. Additionally, 1 ♂: "Coll. I.R.Sc.N.B., Laos, NE, Mt Phu Phan, vi.2019, local collectors, I.G.: 34.159" [vomer dissected] (paratype male from original description) (RBINS).</p><p>Photographic records: 1 ♂, 1 ♀: "China, Yunnan Province, Maguan County, Gulinqing town ( 古林箐乡)” (observed by Xiang-Jing Liu, China); 1 ♂: "Vietnam, Ha Giang Province, Dung Ba Commune" (observed by Chien C. Lee, Malaysia); 1 ♂: "Thailand, Nan Province, Bo Kluea Tai District" (observed by Tatsatorn Dharithai, Thailand); 1 ♂: "Thailand: Phetchabun Province, Phetchabun Research Station" (Photograph shared by Tatsatorn Dharithai, Thailand); 1 ♀: "San Ku Ruins, Chiang Mai, Thailand" (observed by Rob Thacker, United Kingdom).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species was only recently described and has entered the phylliid enthusiast breeding community in the last year or so (Fig. 50). Despite the relatively recent description, as a large prominent species it has been easy to identify from numerous observational records&gt; from throughout mainland Asia, thus appearing to be a somewhat widespread species than was originally known (Fig. 2).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. due to the mesopleura which are prominent and reach uniformly from the anterior to the posterior of the prescutum and are marked with large prominent tubercles; the general femoral lobe shapes; the general abdominal shape with a boxy abdomen with a gently lobed abdominal segment VII; and due to the distal portion of the tibial exterior areas having small lobes. Both of these similar species can however be differentiated by the female subgenital plate as it is notably long in Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. with the apex reaching the tip of the abdomen (Figs 63B, 77E), vs. Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. which has a subgenital plate which is shorter, only reaching ca. ½ through abdominal segment X (Fig. 50D).</p><p>Males are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. due to their large size and spade-shaped abdomens. Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. shares the following morphological similarities to Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov.: similar femoral and tibial lobe shapes (particularly the profemoral exterior lobe which is broad, distinctly bent, and marked with prominent serration); and the occasional presence of small distal lobes of the tibial exteriors. Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. can be differentiated by the length of the tegmina as they reach significantly onto abdominal segment IV when folded, and in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. the tegmina only reach ½ onto abdominal segment III, and the mesopleura of Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. are not as broad on the anterior as those of Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. which has mesopleura which are nearly straight margined, diverging evenly not gradually. Male Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. by the profemoral exterior lobe shape as it is slightly thinner than the interior lobe and smoothly arcing from end to end in Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. (Fig. 75B) but notably broad and clearly bent in the center like in Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Widely ranging through several countries with only inland records&gt; to date, no coastal records&gt; yet known. This species has been located in Vietnam, Ha Giang Province, Dung Ba Commune (observed by Chien C. Lee, Malaysia; Fig. 51A); the type locality of Laos, Houaphanh Province, Xam Neua District, Mount Phu Phan; China, Yunnan Province, Maguan County, Gulinqing town (古林箐乡) (observed by Xiang-Jing Liu, China; Fig. 52); and three localities from Thailand, one from Nan Province, Bo Kluea Tai District (observed by Tatsatorn Dharithai, Thailand, Fig. 51B), from San Ku Ruins, Chiang Mai (observed by Rob Thacker, United Kingdom; Fig. 51C), and from Phetchabun Province, Phetchabun Research Station.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/BD05CDBF570B51D98A8877617AD023EB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(Coll RC 19-156).</p><p>Photographic records: 1 ♀: “中国海南省乐东黎族自治县” (Ledong Li Autonomous County, Hainan Province, China) (iNaturalist user @chenhanlin) (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/34767801)</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. from Hainan Island, China is a little-known species with few records&gt; to date (Fig. 53A). Originally described from a male holotype only, we have since seen a few additional male records&gt; and a few presumed female records&gt; from photographs (Fig. 53E). On Hainan island the only other presently known phylliid species is Phyllium (Pulchriphyllium) sinense Liu, 1990, therefore, the photographs of female Cryptophyllium gen. nov. we have seen from Hainan are likely the unknown Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. female. We have not seen any additional records&gt; of this species from the mainland which would represent a range expansion, instead we believe that this species is likely restricted to the island of Hainan. Interestingly, males of this small species with short to average length tegmina are molecularly sister species to Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. from the mainland, which is a rather large species with the longest tegmina presently known in the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. Females of both species also exhibit a striking size difference, with Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. rather large, and all records&gt; we have seen of Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. appearing to be rather small.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>The presumed females are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. due to the prominent mesopleura which are broad and reach fully to the anterior margin of the prescutum and the overall boxy abdominal shape. Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. can be differentiated from both by the serration of the mesopleura, as in Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. the lateral margins only have granulation throughout the full length of even size, giving the lateral margins a rough textured appearance, vs. the other two species which have several prominent tubercles and smaller ones interspersed of differing sizes. In all the presumed female Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. we have seen the profemoral exterior lobe shape was rather stable, nearly right angled, which is similar to certain forms of Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. which have rather variable exterior profemoral lobe shapes (see fig. 5 in Cumming and Le Tirant 2020 of the variable Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. lobes).</p><p>Males are most similar to Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. due to the size, tegmina length, and wide profemoral exterior lobes with fine serration on the distal margin. These two species can be separated by the shape of the mesopleura as Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. has mesopleura which are narrower on the anterior end and Cryptophyllium parum comb. nov. has broader mesopleura on the anterior end, much more similar to Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. mesopleura.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from a few localities on Hainan Island, China (Baisha Li Autonomous County and Ledong Li Autonomous County).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/553D7DA04C9C541383562C995A6AEAD2	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

A female was located due to the tell-tale sign of feeding damage on the guava tree on which she was found (Fig. 54) at crocodile lake between the ranger station and the lake shore. This female was kept alive long enough to lay fertilized eggs which were shared with expert phylliid breeder Bruno Kneubühler (Switzerland) who brought this species into culture (Fig. 55). Additionally, one male was collected while light trapping near the park headquarters.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov., and Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. based on the general abdominal shape, the broad obtuse exterior profemoral lobe, and the mesopleura shape and spination. Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. can immediately be differentiated from these species by the length of the alae which are short, only reaching to the anterior margin of abdominal segment III vs. the other species which have moderate length alae, reaching at least onto abdominal segment IV.</p><p>Males are morphologically most similar to Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov., Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov., Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. based on the tegminal length, femoral lobe shapes and spination, and the features of the thorax. The first two species can be differentiated by their abdominal shape which is thinly elliptical, with a maximum width only 30-34% the abdominal length vs. Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. and the second two species which have an abdominal shape that is broadly elliptical or broadly spade-shaped with a maximum width ca. 38-45% the abdominal length. Due to their very similar morphology and intraspecific variation, we have not yet found a reliable morphological feature to differentiate Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. males. Thankfully females can help differentiate the species as noted above.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from two southern Vietnamese provinces, Dong Nai and Binh Thuan Provinces.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Coloration description is based upon both living wild caught (Fig. 54B) and captive reared individuals (Fig. 55A) as their coloration appears to be rather similar. Overall coloration is pale green, with many areas of the body highlighted with cream or very pale green. These areas tend to be the margins on the lobes of the legs, some striping on the lobes of the legs, the pronotum, abdominal margins, and the venation in the tegmina (Fig. 55A).</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, vertex relatively smooth with the only notable feature being the posteromedial tubercle which is finely pointed (Fig. 56E). Frontal convexity broad and blunt, with a slightly granular surface. Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, and are not particularly large, taking up slightly &lt;⅓ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 56E). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields slightly wider than the width of the first antennomere. Antennae. Antennae consist of nine segments, with the terminal segment about the same length as the preceding two and a half segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 56C). Antennomeres I-VII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal two antennomeres are covered in stout, brown setae. Thorax. Pronotum with gently concave anterior margin and slightly convex lateral margins, which converge to a straight posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 56E). The pronotum surface is smooth, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior and lateral to the pit (Fig. 56E). The pronotum has moderately formed anterior and lateral rims and a weakly formed posterior rim, all of which are relatively smooth (Fig. 56E). Prosternum and the anterior of the mesosternum are covered with numerous nodes, but the remainder of the mesosternum and the metasternum are relatively smooth. Prescutum longer than wide, lateral rims with nine to eleven small to medium tubercles, not ranging dramatically in size giving the margin a rough textured appearance (Fig. 56E). Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, rim surface is granular, lacking a large sagittal spine (Fig. 56F). Prescutum surface heavily granular, with all about the same size. Mesopleura begin ca. ⅓ of the way through the prescutum length and evenly diverge; lateral margin with seven or eight small tubercles with ca. ½ of those slightly larger than the rest, with the smaller ones interspersed throughout (Fig. 56E). Face of the mesopleura smooth, with two notable divots, one on the anterior margin and one near the middle (Fig. 56F). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching ½ through abdominal segment VII. Tegmina venation; the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing, running parallel with the margin for the first half, and then bending and running towards the margin. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the forewing with two subparallel branched veins; the first radius (R1) branches ca. ¼ of the way through the wing length and terminates slightly proximal to the midline, the radial sector (Rs) branches ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length and terminates near the distal ⅓ of the wing length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thin R-M crossvein that connects the two veins. The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating near to the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ⅕ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, at the length about midway between the splitting of the R1 and Rs. Alae reduced, with their apex only just passing the anterior margin of abdominal segment III. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior half of IV uniformly diverging. The posterior half of segment IV through segment VII are subparallel, gradually converging, and segment VII is ending in a slightly rounded lobe. Segments VIII-X are notably narrower than the previous segments, and have converging margins to the broad rounded apex (Fig. 56G). Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is moderately broad, and extends ½ onto segment X with straight margins ending in a fine point (Fig. 56H). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, reaching the apex of abdominal segment X; gonapophyses IX are shorter and narrower, hidden below (Fig. 56H). Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a granular surface and few detectable setae (Fig. 56H). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe broad, rounded, and obtusely angled, smoothly arcing from end to end, ca. ⅓ again wider than the width of the interior lobe (Fig. 56D). Edge of the profemoral exterior lobe granular, with a few slightly larger than the rest, but none very large to resemble teeth (Fig. 56D). Profemoral interior lobe ca. 2 × as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, obtusely angled, and marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with looping gaps between them (Fig. 56D). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end but is slightly bent in the center, weighted towards the distal ½, and marked with three or four small serrate teeth distributed on the distal half only. Interior lobe is about the same width as the mesofemoral shaft, and the exterior lobe is slightly wider. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs smoothly end to end with 6-8 small serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc which is slightly wider than the proximal half of the arc. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end, with the distal half slightly wider than the proximal half and marked with 7-10 serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft and lacks dentation. Protibiae lacking an exterior lobe. Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is slightly&gt; 2 × the width of the protibiae shaft itself. The lobe is roundly triangular with the widest portion on the distal half. Mesotibiae and metatibiae lacking exterior and interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of paratype females [mm] (wild caught).

Coloration. Coloration based upon live bred specimens in captivity (Fig. 55C). Overall coloration pale green throughout with variable patches of tan to reddish coloration (Fig. 55C). These tan to reddish areas are primarily around the margins of the lobes of the legs, the margins of the thorax, the tips of the antennae, and the margins of the abdomen. In darker colored specimens the mesofemoral lobes can also have coloration, not just along the margins. Abdominal segment V has a pair of slightly transparent eye spots.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, with a vertex that is relatively smooth with only sparse granulation throughout. Frontal convexity stout with sparse thin setae. The posteromedial tubercle is not broad but is distinctly raised from the head capsule. Compound eyes large and bulbous, taking up slightly &lt; ½ head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 57D). There are three well-developed ocelli located between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 24 segments, all segments except the scapus and pedicellus and terminal three segments are covered in dense setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal three segments are covered in dense short setae and the scapus and pedicellus are nearly completely bare. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin distinctly concave and lateral margins that are slightly convex and converging to a straight posterior margin that is ca. ½ the width of the anterior rim. Anterior and lateral margins of the pronotum have moderately formed rims and the posterior margin lacks a rim. Face of the pronotum is marked by a distinct furrow and pit in the center and a relatively smooth surface with weak granulation. Prosternum surface is weakly granular with small nodes of even size and spacing. Mesosternum surface marked with slightly more prominent nodes, with the largest along the sagittal plane and more strongly on the anterior margin, posterior margin with less prominent and smaller nodes. Prescutum slightly longer than wide, with lateral margins that are only slightly converging to the posterior (Fig. 57D). Lateral rims with nine or ten node-like tubercles, giving the lateral margins a rough textured appearance. Prescutum surface with minimal nodes throughout, with those along the sagittal plane slightly larger than the others. Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly raised, with a granular surface and lacking a prominent sagittal tubercle. Mesopleura begin on the anterior prescutum margin but are narrow throughout most of their length, only diverging gently for the posterior ⅔. Lateral margin with nine or ten minor tubercles throughout the length except for the posterior ⅓ which is relatively smooth. Face of the mesopleura mostly smooth, with slight wrinkling throughout. Wings. Tegmina moderate length, extending ⅓ of the way through abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates the earliest ca. ⅓ of the way through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching just proximal to the midline and terminating just distal to the midline, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off slightly&gt; ⅓ of the way through the wing length, and then the second media posterior (MP2) branches just distal to the midline, and the media anterior (MA) runs to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well-developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching to the middle or posterior of abdominal segments IX. Alae wing venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) is long, spanning ca. ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches slightly proximal to the midline into the first radius (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run gently diverging for most of their length and then converge at the apex of the wing where they terminate near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other throughout the wing until the distal ⅕ of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing apex where they terminate near the radial sector. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-6PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Lateral margins of abdominal segment II are parallel, III through the anterior ⅔ of segment IV gradually diverging, the remainder of IV and segment V are parallel-sided, segment VI starts parallel-sided but almost immediately starts to converge and the remaining segments converge uniformly to the rounded apex of the abdomen. Genitalia. Poculum broad and ends in a rounded apex that slightly passes the anterior margin of segment X (Fig. 57G). Cerci long and slender, extending from under the anal abdominal segment, nearly flat, not strongly cupped, covered in a granulose surface and numerous short setae (Fig. 57F). Vomer broad and stout with straight sides evenly converging and ending in a thick apical hook with a smaller second hook adjacent to it (Fig. 5C). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe about the same width as the interior lobe, ca. 2½× the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, roundly arcing end to end in a broad obtuse angle that is not distinctly bent, with the proximal margin slightly granulose, and the distal margin with four or five small serrate teeth (Fig. 57C). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular and marked with five sharp teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with looping gaps between them (Fig. 57C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end but is slightly wider on the distal ⅓ which is marked with four or five serrate teeth, and the proximal half that is rather thin. Mesofemoral interior lobe is about the same width as the exterior, is broader on the distal end and is marked with seven or eight small serrate teeth. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with eight or nine small serrate teeth on the distal ⅔, which is slightly wider than the proximal ⅓. Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a smooth triangle which is slightly weighted to the distal ½ and at its widest is ca. 2½× as wide as the protibial shaft (Fig. 57C). Meso- and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes completely.</p><p>Measurements of holotype male [mm].

(Fig. 58). The lateral surfaces are flat but with the posterior half slightly wider than the anterior half. The center of the dorsal surface is slightly convex, which gives the margin a slight undulating appearance when viewed from the lateral aspect as the middle is thinner than either end of the egg. When viewed from the lateral aspect; the ventral margin has the posterior slightly protruding more than the anterior, adding to the overall undulating shape of the egg. All surfaces have numerous small to medium sized pits throughout, the lateral surface has around 20 pits arranged in no particular order. The surfaces are also covered with short moss-like pinnae interspersed throughout the capsules with those along the margins slightly longer than the other surfaces. The dorsal surface is marked with six slightly irregular medium sized pits on each half and short moss-like pinnae around the micropylar plate. The micropylar plate is long, ca. 6/7 of the overall dorsal surface length and the shape is nearly symmetrical with the anterior and posterior thin and the area around the micropylar cup the widest point. Micropylar cup of moderate size and placed slightly posterior to the micropylar plate midline. Operculum slightly ovular, with the outer margin with a distinct row of moss-like pinnae surrounding the operculum and four or five medium pits surrounding the dorsal and lateral margins. The operculum is roundly raised with a height slightly&gt; ½ operculum width, this rounded raised cap is marked with a sagittal raised row of pinnae similar in length to those along the capsule margins. The overall color is tan to light brown, with the moss-like pinnae sometimes slightly lighter in color.</p><p>Measurements including the extended pinnae [mm]. Length (including operculum): 5.1; maximum width of capsule when viewed from lateral aspect 3.2-3.3; length of micropylar plate 2.9-3.2</p><p>Newly hatched nymphs. (Fig. 9G). The general color throughout the body is dark brown with slightly lighter brown on the legs. The basitarsi are yellow and remaining tarsal segments are dark brown. All tibiae lack exterior lobes, and all have smoothly arcing interior lobes which have several tan to brown stripes throughout their length. All femoral lobes are similar in width and have distinct serration on their distal halves. The interior profemoral lobe lacks a white spot, but the exterior lobe has a narrow white crescent on the proximal ⅓ with an additional small white patch at the proximal most margin. The meso- and metafemoral interior lobes have two white patches, one on the proximal most edge, and a larger white patch ⅓ of the way through the length. The meso- and metafemoral exterior lobes also have the large white patch on the proximal ⅓, but lack a smaller white patch on the proximal most margin. The distal ends of the meso- and metafemora also have minimal white edges. The abdomen is mostly brown, but abdominal segments II and III have distinct green patches on their lateral surfaces (the centerline of the abdomen is uniform brown throughout). The terminal three abdominal segments also have a little bit of green on their margins. The widest point of the abdomen is abdominal segment IV.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Patronym.

With the species until now only known from a female, we were excited to uncover that large unknown males from Vietnam were molecularly in close relation to the female, allowing this species to be illustrated from both sexes (Fig. 60). During a joint GTI expedition, two males in Tay Yen Tu Nature Reserve and one male from Cuc Phuong N.P. were collected at night using a light trap. They were found while checking the surroundings of the light trap, having been attracted to the light but not landing on the white collection sheet. Additionally, a second male in Cuc Phuong N.P. was collected when it was attracted by the streetlights. Interestingly, inclusion of molecular data from six males from throughout north and central Vietnam did not reveal clearly delineated clades (which could represent distinct species) or a tightly formed clade with little genetic diversity (indicating a close kinship/homogenizing gene flow throughout this wide range), but instead somewhat revealed a nestedness of our samples from north to south with significant molecular distances between most samples (Fig. 4). Similar molecular distances were revealed between the geographically close Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov. but our set of Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. samples come from a geographically wide range of several hundred kilometers. This trio of molecularly distinct and morphologically discernable species from within a limited geographic area contrasts greatly with our sampling of Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. males from a wide geographic area but no morphological feature was found to allow differentiation of these notably molecularly distinct samples. Due to the extreme geographic distance likely allowing a certain degree of intraspecific molecular variation and our lack of continuous samples of Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. from throughout the full range, we at this time treat this clade as a singular species but expect that future analysis may reveal it to be several once the larger geographic gaps in our sampling are filled.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females can be differentiated by the unique combination of exterior profemoral lobes which are right angled and distinctly serrate, alae which are long (reaching abdominal segment VI), and an abdomen which is distinctly tapering from the sixth segment to the tip of the abdomen (not parallel-sided or with a lobe). Species which are morphologically similar are Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. (which has right angled exterior lobes and a spade-shaped abdomen) and Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. which as the slender form female can have a similar abdominal shape (Fig. 34A). Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. can immediately be differentiated however as this species has prominent exterior lobes on the meso- and metatibiae whereas Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. has simple tibiae, lacking lobes. Cryptophyllium icarus sp. nov. can be differentiated by the profemoral exterior lobes which are notably more obtuse angled, not right angled, and the lack of well-developed alae which are small, only reaching the second abdominal segment (Fig. 33C).</p><p>Males are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. due to their similarly shaped lobes on all legs, similar wing lengths, shape and spination of the thorax, and general abdominal shape. These two species occur sympatrically in central Vietnam and therefore we were only able to confidently differentiate them through molecular analyses which allowed us to observe the morphological variation in these species to more confidently separate them morphologically. The only two features which we consistently saw between these species were of the exterior profemoral lobe and the abdominal shape. Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. has a slightly more ovoid abdomen ( Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. is slightly more tapered on the abdominal segments VI and VII) and the profemoral exterior lobe on Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. has 6-8 distinct serrate teeth (Fig. 61E) vs. Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. which at most have one to four small minor teeth (Figs 14A, 15C), never a full set of distinctly serrate margins.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>China, Guangxi Province (recorded from Hexian, Shuangding town, and Dayaoshan Mountains) and distributed south through Vietnam. At present we have records&gt; for five Vietnamese provinces: Vinh Phuc, Quang Ninh, Ninh Binh, Da Nang, and Kon Tum Provinces.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/64EBAECAF9BB521EAAB400E22E3CB59E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(although the unknown female for Cryptophyllium animatum sp. nov. may be larger as the holotype male is 89.4 mm long suggesting a significantly sized female). The region where Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. is found is more temperate (Fig. 66B) than the tropics where phylliids are more typically known, and we hope that future ecological studies will reveal more about their generation time and general ecology in this region. This species was described from a female holotype, and it has entered the phasmid breeding community, however, as a parthenogenetic culture (Fig. 63), therefore records&gt; of males are absent from culture and rarely collected. We have examined few male specimens, but all have matched morphologically to the male we illustrate from Beibengxiang, Mêdog County, Nyingchi, Tibet (Fig. 64B). The first image we are aware of for this species is a beautiful color image from Inglis (1930) which was meant to be illustrating ' Phyllium scythe ' taken by Mr. T. A. Baldry (a mammologist active in the Darjeeling area, West Bengal in the 1920's and 30's). Inglis (1930) although confused as to which species he was illustrating (although to be fair we are aware of Phyllium (Pulchriphyllium) bioculatum scythe Gray, 1843 is also known from this area so he may have at one time seen the species he was intending to mention), he did note that leaf insects found in this area (although rare) were found feeding on Castanopsis hystrix, the Common Chestnut. This is the first record of phylliids feeding on Castanopsis, the second being of Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. from northern Laos (Cumming and Le Tirant 2020).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium drunganum comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium liyananae sp. nov. based on the general abdominal and femoral lobe shapes, the shape and spination of the thorax (Fig. 63C), long alae at least extending abdominal segment VI (Fig. 63D) and the presence of small exterior lobes on the tibiae (Fig. 63C). Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. can be differentiated from both however by the shape of the subgenital plate which is long and projecting beyond the tip of the abdomen in Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. (Fig. 63B) and shorter, only ca. ½ the length of abdominal segment X in the other two species (Fig. 47E).</p><p>Male Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium rarum comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium bankoi sp. nov. due to the thorax shape and fine granular mesopleura margins (Fig. 64C), tegmina lengths (Fig. 64D), femoral lobe shapes (Fig. 64C), and general abdominal shape. Both of these species can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. by the absence of small but distinct exterior, anteriorly situated protibial and metatibial lobes in the former two species.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>The type locality for Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. stated by Liu (1993) is Tibet (Xizang Autonomous Region), Mêdog County (Motuo). There do appear to be additional distribution records&gt; for this high elevation species however. Unfortunately, we have only been presented with photographs of individuals or antique subadults/nymphs, and no fresh adult specimens to examine or include in our molecular phylogeny at this time. Therefore, these additional distribution records&gt; are only presumed to be Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. due to their morphological similarity to bred nymphs of this species and are here presented to give as thorough a view into the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. distribution as possible. From Southeast Tibet, Tenga Valley, we have been presented with an image of an adult male which looks to be the right size and has morphological features which suggest it could represent the Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. male. Additionally, there is a pair of nymphs in the NHMUK from "Arunachal Pradesh from the Mishmi Hills" from 1935, a female from Anjaw District "Delei River. 1,700ft. 28.i.1935, M.Steele." (Fig. 65C) and a male from the Lohit District "Lohit River. 22.iii.1935, M.Steele." (Fig. 65D). Recently we also were sent photos of a female from Pasighat in the East Siang district, which matches well with the Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. morphology (Fig. 66A).</p><p>From Nepal we are aware of two records&gt;, both female subadults, one found in Gandaki Pradesh, Tanahun District and the other found in Province No. 1, Ilam. Both of these subadult females appear to have Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. shaped abdomens, profemoral lobes, and importantly small exterior tibial lobes which help to characterize Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. females.</p><p>From India we have located a nymph from within the NHMUK collection from Sikkim (Fig. 65B), and we have been lucky enough to be presented with photographs of an adult female from West Bengal, Kalimpong (Fig. 65A) both of which have Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. like features. From the state of Assam we have been sent an image of a female nymph from the town of Digboi which can clearly be seen as having distinct but small exterior tibial lobes (Fig. 65E).</p><p>Interestingly, we have yet to be presented with records&gt; from Bhutan, but as it lies between areas where Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species have been confirmed we expect that there likely is at least one species present, just not yet officially recorded.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/A26EBE1EFDCC5CDB863F9069FF5C0F01	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Figure 67</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>Holotype ♀: "CHINA: Yunnan Province, Chashan Park, Simao District, Puer City, VI-2017, leg. Xiao-Yu Zhu". deposited in the Kunming Institute of Zoology (KIZ), Yunnan, China.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species was unveiled through our molecular analysis to be distinct from the sympatrically occurring Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. but unfortunately, only this singular holotype is known to us at this time. Hopefully future collecting in this region will reveal additional specimens and the extent of their morphological variation.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Females are morphologically most similar to Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. due to the presence of small exterior tibial lobes, similar shaped exterior profemoral lobes (Fig. 67C), similar thorax shape and spination (Fig. 67D), and similar abdominal shape (Fig. 67A). Due to morphological variation noted within these two species and the damaged alae and tip of the subgenital plate in the holotype Cryptophyllium wennae sp. nov. (both morphological features frequently helpful for differentiation), no consistent feature has yet been found to differentiate Cryptophyllium wennae sp. nov. from them except for size as the holotype Cryptophyllium wennae sp. nov. is only 78.5 mm long vs. Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. which is noted as 106.5 mm long (Liu 1993) or Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. which are 82.1 to 94.2 mm long (Cumming and Le Tirant 2020). Hopefully once the egg and male morphology is known more reliable morphological features can be found to differentiate this species more easily.</p><p>Males are presently unknown.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>At present only known from the type locality of Puer City in Yunnan Province, China.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Female. Coloration. Based upon the singular dried holotype specimen (Fig. 67). Living individuals are always a more vibrant green and this specimen appears to have been fully green, without patches of variable brown. The dried holotype female is pale green throughout with discoloration of tan along the shafts of the legs and head, thorax, and abdomen likely due to the drying process.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule slightly longer than wide, vertex relatively smooth with only slight granulation throughout the surface, all relatively well-spaced (Fig. 67D). The posteromedial tubercle is broader and taller than any other nodes on the head capsule (Fig. 67F). Frontal convexity broad and about as long as the first antennomere, with a slightly lumpy surface, and with several setae present throughout (Fig. 67D). Compound eyes slightly protruding from the head capsule, not notably large, taking up slightly &lt; ¼ of the length of the lateral head capsule margins (Fig. 67D). Ocelli absent. Antennal fields wider than the first antennomere (Fig. 67D). Antennae. Antennae consisting of nine segments, with the terminal segment about the same length as the preceding two segments’ lengths combined (Fig. 67B). Antennomeres I-VIII sparsely marked with small transparent setae, the terminal antennomere has darker, shorter, and denser setae than the other segments (Fig. 67B). Thorax. Pronotum with gently concave anterior margin and straight lateral margins, which converge to a convex posterior margin that is half the width of the anterior margin (Fig. 67D). The pronotum surface and moderately formed pronotum rims are smooth, lacking significant granulation, with only a prominent pit in the center, and slight furrows anterior, posterior, and lateral to the pit (Fig. 67D). Prosternum with moderate granulation, mesosternum anterior margin and the anterior half of the sagittal plane with moderate granulation. Metasternum relatively smooth, lacking notable nodes. Prescutum as long as wide, lateral rims with nine or ten irregularly shaped but not large tubercles with those on the anterior slightly larger than those on the posterior (Fig. 67D). Prescutum anterior rim prominent but not strongly protruding, surface marked throughout with irregular granulation, no prominent singular sagittal spine present (Fig. 67D). Prescutum surface covered irregularly by moderate nodes, with slightly larger nodes along the sagittal plane (Fig. 67D). Mesopleura beginning on the anterior margin of the prescutum and evenly diverging; lateral margin with five larger tubercles, and eight or nine smaller tubercles interspersed unevenly throughout with some tubercles touching side by side or with a slight gap between them (Fig. 67D). Face of the mesopleura is mostly smooth but with lateral margins that have a slightly granular surface (Fig. 67D). Wings. Tegmina long, reaching ½ through abdominal segment VII. The subcosta (Sc) is the first vein in the forewing and runs parallel with the tegmina lateral margin for the first ½ of the vein, then bends gently and runs to the lateral margin of the wing where it terminates ca. ¼ of the way through the length. The radius (R) spans the central portion of the forewing with two subparallel branched veins; radius 1 (R1) terminates ca. ⅓ of the way through the wing length, and the radial sector (Rs) terminates ca. ⅔ of the way through the wing length. There is a weak continuation of the radius following the prominent Rs branching which continues on as a short and thinner R-M crossvein that does not solidly connect the two veins as it reaches the media. The media (M) is simply bifurcate with both the media anterior (MA) and media posterior (MP) terminating near the posterior ¼ of the wing. The cubitus (Cu) is also bifurcate, branching near the posterior ⅕ of the wing into the cubitus anterior (CuA) and cubitus posterior (CuP) which both terminate at or very near the wing posterior apex. The first anal vein (1A) is simple and fuses with the cubitus early on, near the branching distance of the R1 from R. Alae in the holotype are unfortunately deformed, so we do not yet know what length alae this species has. Abdomen. Abdominal segments II through the anterior ⅓ of IV diverging slowly at first and then more strongly towards the posterior, with the posterior ⅔ of segment IV the widest segment. Segments V-VI are subparallel, and segment VII converges slightly more prominently and ends in a slight lobe. Segments VIII-X are notably narrower than the previous segments and converge uniformly to the rounded apex. Genitalia. Subgenital plate starts at the anterior margin of segment VIII, is long and narrow reaching significantly onto the terminal segment (Fig. 67G). Gonapophyses VIII are long and moderately broad, exceeding the apex of abdominal segment X, gonapophyses IX are smaller and slender, hidden below the gonapophyses VIII (Fig. 67G). Cerci flat, not strongly cupped, with a heavily granular surface and few detectable setae (Fig. 67E). Legs. Profemoral exterior lobes notably wider than the interior lobe with an acute angle due to a slight recurve of the lobe (Fig. 67C). Proximal edge of the profemoral exterior lobe slightly granular, and the bend and distal edge is marked by six or seven small serrate teeth (Fig. 67C). Profemoral interior lobe ca. 3 × as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft, with an obtuse angle, and marked with five prominent teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with large looping gaps between the teeth (Fig. 67C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs from end to end in a slightly bent lobe weighted on the distal half and marked with two serrate teeth on the distal half only. Interior and exterior lobes are of a similar width. Mesofemoral interior lobe arcs smoothly end to end, is marked with four or five serrate teeth only on the distal half of the arc, and is about as wide as the mesofemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe arcs end to end, but is wider on the distal half, and has four or five serrate teeth on the distal half of the lobe only. Metafemoral exterior lobe is thin and smooth, hugging the metafemoral shaft. Protibiae interior lobe spans the entire length of the protibiae and is at least 2 × as wide as the protibial shaft. The lobe is distinctly triangular with the broadest point distal to the midline. Pro-, meso-, and meta- tibiae with small anteriorly situated exterior lobes, meso-, and meta- tibiae lack interior lobes.</p><p>Measurements of holotype female [mm].

Philip E. Bragg, well-known phasmid researcher from the United Kingdom, several years ago was able to obtain photographs of what was assumed to be the female syntype within the NZSI collection (the possible male type could not be located). However, the female labeled as such within the collection is the wrong size, does not have an original Wood-Mason collection label, and when compared with the illustration in Wood-Mason (1875) instead clearly represents a different species (a Phyllium (Pulchriphyllium) female). While it is possible that the original syntypes are still in the NZSI collection, if their original data labels were accidentally removed, or moved to other specimens, then there would be no way to positively identify either the male or the female. Besides their lost status, with our understanding of Cryptophyllium gen. nov. morphology now consolidated and extensively reviewed, we believe that Wood-Mason’s (1875) original syntype pair actually represented two different species, one from the mainland, and a second species from the Andaman Islands. Additionally, with the identification of a cryptic, nearly morphologically indiscernible Cryptophyllium westwoodii -like species from Cambodia ( Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov.), a clear identification of the population which corresponds to this original name is necessary. A male specimen could not be located from the exact type locality "Pahpoon (Hpapun, Papun), 150 miles north of Moulmein (Mawlamyine, formerly Moulmein) in Salween Country (Salween River, officially Thanlwin River)" therefore we instead chose a rather morphologically average male from Chiang Mai, Thailand. Although this location is across an international border, it is only 175 kilometers away, a distance which is negligible when considering the range over which we have found Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov.; we have specimens genetically confirmed as the same species across a distance of over 1,000 kilometers (from northern Laos to southern Myanmar; Fig. 2). Additionally, this neotype location is the closest to the syntype locality for which we have seen specimens recorded, and Chiang Mai is a well-known breeding site for Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov., therefore many museums and collections around the world have ample specimens of this particular population. Also, obtaining specimens from Myanmar is exceedingly difficult and no museum specimens could be located during our review. Therefore, due to the above complex taxonomic problems involved with the original name (Article 75.1, ICZN 1999), we here establish a neotype male which matches the morphological description in Wood-Mason (1875) and the illustration of the syntype presented in Wood-Mason (1877). Consequently, due to our above reasonings and the fact that historically a lectotype was never designated from the syntype pair, the qualifying conditions for designating a neotype are satisfied in accordance with Article 75.3 of the ICZN (1999).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>The female and egg morphology of Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. were well-described by Hennemann et al. (2009) and this species is common within the phasmid breeding community (Fig. 68) and therefore we only describe the neotype male morphology herein. This species appears to be one of the most widespread and most commonly encountered Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species as the range from north to south is over 1,000 km and from our review of museum collections and citizen scientist records&gt; this is by far the most commonly observed species.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Female Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. are morphologically inseparable from Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. due to the wide range of morphological forms observed within Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. (both in shape and coloration; Fig. 69) which do not allow a reliable morphological feature to be identified for differentiation. When only comparing females, solely through molecular comparison can these two species be differentiated with confidence (see Fig. 4). Thankfully, males of these two species can be morphologically differentiated, discussed further below. Additionally, Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. is also morphologically similar to the three southern Vietnam species: Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov., Cryptophyllium phami sp. nov., and Cryptophyllium nuichuaense sp. nov. females. All of these species share similar femoral and tibial lobe shape and serration (Fig. 70D), narrow anterior margin of the mesopleura and serration (Fig. 70E), and an abdominal shape which is boxy with a rounded lobe VII (Fig. 70A). From all of these southern Vietnam species however Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. can be differentiated by the length of the alae which are long, reaching onto abdominal segment VI (Fig. 68D), vs. all these others which have shorter alae, reaching segments II or III only.</p><p>Male. Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. are morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. due to their similar femoral lobe shape and serration, their shorter tegmina length (only reaching abdominal segment IV), and their general abdominal shape (Fig. 71A). Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. can immediately be differentiated by the presence of fully spanning metatibial exterior lobes, as Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. lacks exterior lobes on all tibiae. Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. are very similar in morphology, and the only consistent feature we have seen between these to differentiate them is the size, with Cryptophyllium chrisangi comb. nov. slightly larger (73-74 mm long; Seow-Choen 2017) and Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. smaller (63-69 mm long; Hennemann et al. 2009). Despite female Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. being inseparable morphologically from Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov., the males do consistently differ in the width of their abdomen, with Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. having an abdominal shape that is thinly elliptical, with a maximum width only 30-34% of the abdominal length (Fig. 71A), vs. Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. which has an abdominal shape broadly elliptical or broadly spade-shaped with a maximum width ca. 38-45% of the abdominal length (Fig. 40A).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. has only been confirmed through genetic analysis from northern Thailand, northern Laos, and southern Myanmar. With the description of Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. which morphologically cannot be differentiated from photographs of nymphs or females, we are unsure where these two species biogeographically are separated, but at this time we only know of Cryptophyllium khmer sp. nov. from Cambodia and are unsure if Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. also occurs in this country. Until additional Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. samples from throughout the range are also sequenced, the true distribution must remain somewhat vague at this point (as indicated by the bi-colored symbols in our distribution map; Fig. 2).</p><p>Neotype male.</p><p>Coloration. Coloration description is based upon the dried neotype specimen (Fig. 72A), living individuals are more vibrant. Overall coloration pale green with variable patches of straw yellow throughout due to the drying process (primarily around the center of the body and the antennae). Compound eyes burnt red in color and basitarsi are orange.</p><p>Morphology. Head. Head capsule about as long as wide, with a vertex that is smooth except for the posteromedial tubercle which is not broad but is distinctly raised from the head capsule (Fig. 72B). Frontal convexity stout with a narrow point and marked with sparse thin setae. Compound eyes large and bulbous, taking up ca. ⅖ of the head capsule lateral margins (Fig. 72B). There are three moderately developed ocelli located between and slightly posterior to the compound eyes. Antennal fields as wide and as long as the scapus. Antennae. Antennae (including the scapus and pedicellus) consists of 27 segments, all segments except the scapus and pedicellus and terminal three segments are covered in dense pale setae that are as long as or longer than the antennae segment is wide. The terminal four segments are covered in dense, dark, short setae and the scapus and pedicellus are nearly completely bare. Thorax. Pronotum with anterior margin slightly concave and lateral margins that are nearly straight and converging to a straight posterior margin that is ½ the width of the anterior rim (Fig. 72B). Anterior and lateral margins have moderate rims, and the posterior margin lacks a rim (Fig. 72B). Face of the pronotum is marked by a distinct furrow in the center, short furrows lateral to this central sagittal furrow, and a smooth but slightly lumpy surface (Fig. 72B). Prosternum is moderately granular throughout with small nodes of even size. Mesosternum surface marked with slightly more prominent nodes on the anterior half and the posterior half has similar small nodes as those on the prosternum. Metasternum with a slightly wrinkled surface and small sparse nodes. Prescutum slightly longer than wide, with lateral margins slightly converging to the posterior (Fig. 72B). Lateral rims with eight or nine nodes giving the surface a rough textured appearance, not very large or prominent (Fig. 72B). Prescutum surface rather smooth except for along the sagittal plane which has seven or eight small nodes of about even size (Fig. 72B). Prescutum anterior margin prominent but not strongly raised above the surface, margin slightly granular and lacking a prominent central tubercle (Fig. 72D). Mesopleura rather narrow, gently diverging throughout the length, lateral margin with only slight granulation throughout, no prominent tubercles, at most three or four nodes and slight interspersed granulation throughout (Fig. 72B). Face of the mesopleura slightly wrinkled and with two distinct divots, one on the anterior ⅓ and one near the middle. Wings. Tegmina of moderate length, extending ½ through abdominal segment III. Tegmina wing venation: the subcosta (Sc) is the first vein, is simple, and terminates slightly &lt; ½ through the overall tegmina length. The radius (R) spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first radius (R1) branching ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length and terminating ca. ⅗ of the way through the wing length, followed by the branching and termination of the second radius (R2) near the distal ⅓ of the wing, and then the radial sector runs to the wing apex. The media (M) also spans the entire length of the tegmina with the first media posterior (MP1) branching off ca. ⅖ of the way through the wing length, and then the second media posterior (MP2) branching near the midline, and the media anterior (MA) runs to the wing apex. The cubitus (Cu) runs along the edge of the wing as the two media posterior veins fuse with it and as the cubitus reaches the apex it fades. The first anal (1A) vein terminates upon reaching the cubitus slightly &lt;⅓ of the way through the wing length. Alae well-developed in an oval fan configuration, long, reaching onto abdominal segments IX. Alae wing venation: the costa (C) is present along the entire foremargin giving stability to the wing. The subcosta (Sc) is long, spanning ca. ⅔ of the wing length and is mostly fused with the radius in the beginning but terminates when it meets the costa. The radius (R) spans the entire wing and branches ca. ⅖ of the way through into the first radius (R1) and radial sector (Rs) which run gently diverging for most of their length and then converge at the apex of the wing where they terminate near each other but not touching. The media (M) branches early, ca. ⅙ of the way through the wing into the media anterior (MA) and the media posterior (MP) which run parallel with each other throughout the wing until the distal ⅙ of the wing where the media posterior fuses with the media anterior which then run fused together to the wing apex where they terminate near the radial sector. The cubitus (Cu) runs unbranched and terminates at the wing apex. Of the anterior anal veins, the first anterior anal (1AA) fuses with the cubitus near the point where the media branches into the media anterior and media posterior and then the first anterior anal branches from the cubitus ⅔ of the way through the wing length where it uniformly diverges from the cubitus until it terminates at the wing margin. The anterior anal veins two-seven (2AA-7AA) have a common origin and run unbranched in a folding fan pattern of relatively uniform spacing to the wing margin. The posterior anal veins (1PA-6PA) share a common origin separate from the anterior anal veins and run unbranched to the wing margin with slightly thinner spacing than the anterior anal veins. Abdomen. Abdominal segment II slightly converging, III through the anterior half of segment IV diverging to the widest portion. The posterior of IV and the anterior half of V parallel, the remainder of segments V-X gently converging to the rounded apex. Genitalia. Poculum broad and ends in a straight margined apex that slightly passes the anterior margin of segment X. Cerci long and slender, with slightly&gt; ½ their length extending from under the anal abdominal segment, relatively flat, covered in a granulose surface and numerous short setae. Vomer broad and stout with straight sides evenly converging, and a thick single apical hook which hooks upwards into the paraproct and a notable smaller hook near the base of the primary hook, situated to the left of the primary hook when viewed ventrally. Legs. Profemoral exterior lobe slightly wider than the interior lobe (ca. 2½× as wide as the greatest width of the profemoral shaft), smoothly arcing end to end without a distinct bend and marked with a slightly granular margin and four small teeth on the distal half (Fig. 72C). Profemoral interior lobe roundly triangular and marked with five teeth arranged in a two-one-two pattern with shallow looping gaps between them (Fig. 72C). Mesofemoral exterior lobe arcs end to end but is significantly weighted more so on the distal half which is marked with three serrate teeth and the proximal half that is rather thin, lacking dentation. Mesofemoral interior lobe is slightly thinner than the exterior lobe, is broader on the distal end and is marked with six or seven small serrate teeth on the distal end. Metafemoral exterior lobe lacks dentation and has a straight margin along the metafemoral shaft. Metafemoral interior lobe smoothly arcs end to end with nine small serrate teeth on the distal half which is wider than the proximal half (Fig. 72D). Protibiae lacking exterior lobe, interior lobe reaching end to end in a rounded triangle with the widest portion on the distal half ca. 2 × the width of the protibial shaft (Fig. 72C). Meso- and metatibiae simple, lacking lobes completely.</p><p>Measurements of neotype male [mm]. Length of body (including cerci and head, excluding antennae) 70.5, length/width of head 3.9/3.8, antennae 47.8, pronotum 3.3, mesonotum 4.1, length of tegmina 20.5, length of alae 51.8, greatest width of abdomen 14.7, profemora 15.0, mesofemora 12.7, metafemora 15.4, protibiae 11.1, mesotibiae 18.5, metatibiae 11.5.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/602EFA0F6D165D669074356F7C502A98	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Figures 73, 74</p><p>Material examined.</p><p>(3 ♀♀, 1 ♂): At present only the holotype within the CAS collection, and three additional specimens within the BPBM collection are known to us. 1 ♀: "M.R.Lundgren, Collector. Kaday, Yap, Xi.10.1980. CASTYPE #19438, Holotype" (Fig. 73); 1 ♀: "Yap Islands, Yap I., Kolonia. R. P. Owen, Collector. 6-xii-'63, unknown tree. BPBMENT, 0000080399" (Fig. 74A); 1 ♀: "Yap, 25.XI.1940, H. Fujishima. Micronesia coll., Entomology Lab., Kyushu univ., Fukuoka, Japan. BPBMENT, 0000080401." (Fig. 74C); 1 ♂: "Yap, S. Ikuta. Micronesia coll., Entomology Lab., Kyushu univ., Fukuoka, Japan. Yap. The specimens was at, first preserved in Formalin, and therefore the coloration, was faded. BPBMENT, 0000080400." (Fig. 74E).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species is apparently rather elusive as it is one of the largest insects in Micronesia but also one of the rarest (as it is only known from four museum specimens). This poorly known species is only represented by old/degraded specimens collected between 1940 and 1980 and therefore it is one of only two species excluded from our molecular analysis (the other being Cryptophyllium athanysus comb. nov. only known from antique specimens and recent photographs). Hopefully further collection efforts in Micronesia will locate this species again so it can be observed live, and a tissue sample can be recovered in order to help place the unique species phylogenetically.</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Both sexes have the unique feature of having the interior protibial lobe reduced on the distal half with a majority of the lobe and the widest point on the proximal half only (Fig. 73B) which allows differentiation from all congenerics.</p><p>Females with their boxy rounded abdomen and rounded but broad exterior profemoral lobes are visually similar to Cryptophyllium bollensi sp. nov. and Cryptophyllium westwoodii comb. nov. moderate form females. From both species Cryptophyllium yapicum comb. nov. can be differentiated by the unique protibial interior lobe as the other species have fully spanning lobes with the broadest point on the distal half of the protibiae. Additionally, these species do not have mesopleura with large tubercles (Fig. 73C), instead they have granular surfaces.</p><p>Males are quite unique and do not readily resemble congenerics. With an abdomen that has abdominal segments V and VI parallel-sided, their abdomen is boxy and unlike the typical Cryptophyllium gen. nov. abdomen (which are generally ovoid or spade-shaped). The closest that other Cryptophyllium gen. nov. species get to a boxy abdomen like this is in Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. but in this species typically only segment V is parallel-sided and VI is generally bent and converging on the posterior half. These two species can be differentiated by their significantly differing tegmina lengths as Cryptophyllium celebicum comb. nov. tegmina only reach to the anterior margin of abdominal segment III but Cryptophyllium yapicum comb. nov. have the longest tegmina recorded in this genus. Cryptophyllium yapicum comb. nov. tegmina reach onto abdominal segment V and is therefore a feature which differentiates this species from congenerics as the next longest are recorded in Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. which only reach to the middle of abdominal segment IV.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Only known from the areas of Colonia and Kaday on Yap Island, Micronesia.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/2547FE3A5146576C863ABAB416DE4B82	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Ailao: June 2015" (Coll RC 16-120); 1 ♂: "Vietnam: Yen Bai, Nghia Lo: June, 2017" (Coll RC 17-240).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species was originally only described from a male holotype from Mongla, Yunnan Province. Liu (1993) differentiated this species from others by the profemoral shape (with an exterior lobe which is narrower than the interior lobe; Fig. 75B) and long antennae with 28 segments. Only the narrow exterior profemoral lobe appears to be a unique feature within the Cryptophyllium gen. nov. (as Cryptophyllium gen. nov. typically have exterior profemoral lobes broader than the interior), but the 28-segmented antennae are now known to not be unique to Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. alone.</p><p>We were able to identify the female sex of Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. within our molecular analysis and illustrate the morphology for the first time (Fig. 76).</p><p>Differentiation.</p><p>Males are large with a broad spade-shaped abdomen, and long antennae and thus are most morphologically similar to Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. males. From both species Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. can be differentiated by the shape of the profemoral lobes as the exterior lobe is narrower than the interior lobe (Fig. 75B), vs. a similar width or wider on the exterior in Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. males. Additionally, all Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. examined and the holotype illustration clearly lack small anterior exterior tibial lobes (Fig. 75B), whereas Cryptophyllium oyae comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. both have distinct (but small) anterior exterior tibial lobes.</p><p>Female Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. are large with mesopleura which are marked with large spine-like tubercles (Fig. 77F, G), and broad boxy abdomen. These features morphologically make them appear similar to Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. females. Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. can be differentiated from Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. by the shape of abdominal segment VII which in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. is distinctly projecting and slightly recurved vs. Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. which is only gently rounded, not recurved. Additionally, the proximal margin of the exterior profemoral lobe in Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. is straight or slightly rounded (Fig. 77D), not like in Cryptophyllium limogesi sp. nov. where it is distinctly concave, giving the profemoral lobe a slight recurved appearance (Fig. 42F). Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. and Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. females share many morphological similarities such as: femoral and tibial lobe shapes and serration on all legs; mesopleura which are marked with prominent spine-like tubercles; alae which are long, reaching abdominal segment VI; rounded boxy abdominal shape; broad gonapophyses VIII; and a long subgenital plate which exceeds the apex of the abdomen (Fig. 77E). The only morphological feature which we have found consistent between these species is the overall shape of the mesopleura which are almost perfectly straight in Cryptophyllium yunnanense comb. nov. (Fig. 77F, G) but in Cryptophyllium tibetense comb. nov. are slightly narrowed on the anterior, with slightly inward curved margins on the anterior ⅓ (Fig. 63C).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Presently only known from southern China (Yunnan Province) and adjacent northern Vietnam (Lai Chau and Yen Bai Provinces).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/933CCA9F6C54533EBA59DD0BC6428B28	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
