Distal lobes contiguous. Cerci long, slender, feebly directed upwards with interno-ventral ridge.</p><p>Female: Unknown. Supposed to be similar to that of D. japonica .</p><p>Coloration: Green and brown color morphs. Males with a narrow brown medial band starting from head continuing to disc of pronotum and dorsal margin of tegmen. Tegmen with little conspicuous black dots in cells. Antennae pale brown, annulated. Pro- and mid femora brown; posterior femora green with dark dots on dorsal areas, anterior tibia tympanum yellowish brown. Tibial segments dark brown-black.
