Astyloplatum luteolum n. gen. et n. sp., here designated.</p><p>Etymology. The name is the combination of the Latinized Greek prefix “a-” (not, against), the word “stylata” (having styles), and the Latin word platum (plate); it is given due to the absence of stylli on the male subgenital plate. The gender of the name is being established as neuter.</p><p>Description. Medium size (body length 18–20 mm) and robust (Fig. 1). Coloration. The only known species of yellowish body. Head. Space between antennal sockets 1.5 times wider than the antennal scape (Figs. 2A, B); ocelli rounded, small, and diffuse (Fig.2A); maxillary palps elongated, third and fourth segment similar in size, fifth segment a little longer than the previous ones and slightly dilated at the apex; labial palpi robust, the last segment noticeably dilated and with rounded apex (Fig. 2C). Thorax. Pronotum narrow and smooth, with quadrangular disc and lateral lobes (Fig. 2B); humeral notch not developed; auditory spiracle below the lower margin of the lateral lobe of the pronotum armed with a triangular fold, attached on the mesothorax (Fig. 2C). Sternum lobes are rounded and narrow, without prolongations; mesosternum quadrangular with the anterior margin 1.5 wider than the posterior one; metasternum triangular and narrow. Legs. Fore coxa armed with a spine dorsally. Fore and mid femora unarmed; fore and middle tibiae with four long spines on each ventral margin and one spine on each side of the ventral-apex (Figs. 2D, 4E); hind femur robust, ventrally armed; hind tibia armed with spines dorsally only, apex with three spurs on each side, being the upper and mid one the longer and similar in length (Fig. 2E). Wings. Lanceolate and not exceeding the apex of the abdomen and hind femur, reaching the ninth tergite, MP vein absent; MA vein not forked. (Figs. 1B, 2F). Abdomen. Stridulatory apparatus present on sides of first and second tergites. Ninth tergite unmodified (Fig. 2G); tenth tergite with two plates denticulated on the posterior edge (Fig. 2H), ventrally on the last tergite with two triangular plates denticulated (Fig. 2I). Cerci almost cylindrical, shorth, and without modification (Figs. 2G, H). Paraprocts unmodified. Subgenital plate subtriangular, without stylli but with lateral prolongations and the posterior edge produced between them (Fig. 2J). Phallic complex. Predominantly membranous (Fig. 3), without sclerotized areas, but with microstructures on the dl, as a ti (Fig. 3A); ejv conspicuous and linguiform (Fig. 3B).</p><p>Female. Tenth tergite without modification (Figs. 4A). Cerci cylindrical and thin; ovipositor almost as long as the hind femur, slightly curving upward, smooth edges, rounded apex (Figs. 4H); subgenital plate subrectangular without modifications, and with posterior edge rounded (Figs. 4G).</p><p>Distribution. The Colombian Andes, on the east Andean slopes between Boyacá and Santander departments.</p><p>Comparison. This new genus fits into the characteristics that currently define the tribe Gryllacridini . Astyloplatum n. gen. differs from Camptonotus and Neoeremus in that it has developed wings, reaching near the apex of the abdomen. The other two genera are wingless or with significantly reduced wing vestiges.</p><p>Astyloplatum n. gen. differs from Caudafistulus because it has no elongated tubular-shaped subgenital plate. The coloration is ocher for the new genus and not pink as in Caudafistulus rubrinervosus (Serville), which also has a conspicuous central ocellus occupying a large part of the upper region of the rostrum, in contrast to Astyloplatum n. gen., which has reduced and diffused ocelli. The males of Astyloplatum n. gen. do not have articulated stylli, differentiating it from Brachybaenus, and the other three genera previously mentioned in this comparison. This feature may be convergent with Neotropical genera such as Hyperbaenus and Triaenogryllacris Karny.</p><p>The subgenital plate of Hyperbaenus is quadrangular and has no conspicuous lateral projections, no denticulated plates on the tenth tergite, and the wings of Hyperbaenus are rectangular in contrast to Astyloplatum n. gen., which are ovoid or cycloid. Triaenogryllacris triaena Karny, 1937 males have the apex of the subgenital plate with three prolongations, but it differs from Astyloplatum luteolum n. gen. et n. sp., because the subgenital plate in the middle of its length is prolonged and thinner towards the apex, in contrast to A. luteolum n. gen. et n. sp., with a subtriangular and not prolonged subgenital plate. Triaenogryllacris species have a completely black or reddish-brown head, with a very conspicuous central ocellus, unlike A. luteolum n. gen. et n. sp., that its head is the same color as the rest of the body and the central ocellus is diffuse.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03850E7BED502A2F90E5FA8CFD0DBDE0	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

S. Martínez (CAUD)</p><p>Description. In addition to the characters of the genus: Male. Small-size (18–20 mm.) (Fig. 1). Coloration. Body ocher with faint yellow stripes on the pronotum (Fig. 2B) and legs, genicular area of the femora (Fig. 2E), and base of the tibiae faded yellowish brown (Fig. 2D); eyes black with depigmented rear and dorsal margin (Figs. 2B, C). Head. Dorsal edge of vertex rounded and protruding upwards (Figs. 2A–C). Labrum rectangular wider than high, clypeus ovoid; symmetrical mandibles (Fig. 2A); maxillary palps with the third and fourth segment subequal, fifth segment longer than the third or fourth; last segment of the labial palp rounded, and with the inner edge flattened (Fig. 2C). Pronotum. Smooth and shiny, pronotal disc wider than long, anterior margin rounded, posterior margin straight (Fig. 2B), lower border of lateral lobes straight, and corners rounded (Fig. 2C). Legs covered by several hairs, but more abundant on the fore and mid tibiae (Fig. 2D). Hind femur ventrally armed with four to six spines on the outer margin and two to five on the inner margin placed from the middle of the femur towards the apex. Hind tibia is dorsally armed with four outer spines and four or five inners (Fig. 2E). Wings. ScP vein connects near the apex of ScA; later divides into two branches distally. Rs vein bifurcates over the last distal third of the tegmina, dividing near the apex into two veins. MA vein not forked and differentiating at the base. CuA vein bifurcating close to the middle of the tegmina. CuP and anal veins originating independently and without branches (Fig. 2F).</p><p>Abdomen. First abdominal tergite with a stridulation file, second tergite with two files, longitudinally traversing the bottom of each tergite, both on the right and left side of the tergite. Tenth tergite subtly elongated in the center of the posterior edge in two plates (Figs. 2G, H), each in the shape of a semicircle, with the posterior edge almost straight, outlined in black, and with several denticles on edge (Fig. 2H). Under the posterior border of the last tergite, the epiproct is located with two triangular plates with sharp edges outlined in black (Fig. 2I). Paraprocts moderately sclerosed, without any modification. Cerci thin 1.5 times longer than the subgenital plate (Figs. 2G, H). Subgenital plate almost as long as wide, posterior edge with two conical projections on each side, in the middle of these, the posterior edge emarginates, slightly exceeding the lateral projections, and rounded (Fig. 2J). Phallic complex. dl rounded and covered with microstructures, from which hairs emerge, forming the ti; df thin and over the anterior part of the phallus (Fig. 3A). up.vl as two rounded sublobes, and longer than the other lobes; lw.vl rectangular, with the apex slightly truncated and the lateral edges gradually diverging to the sides (Fig. 3B). Ejd wide and without sclerotized structures; ejv elongate, curving ventrally and inwardly, surrounding the ejd in ventral view (Fig. 3B).</p><p>Female. Similar to the male in shape and size (Fig. 4A). The color of the body is lighter ochre, and the stripes on the vertex (Fig. 4B), pronotum (Figs. 4C, D), and hind femur are faded gray (Fig. 4F). The tegminae reach the anterior border of the ninth tergite (Fig. 4H). Epiproct ovoid, unmodified; subgenital plate long, emerging at the level of the eighth abdominal segment, with a rounded posterior edge, and with a fold of integument originating internally before the apex and protruding from it (Fig. 4G).</p><p>Measurements (mm) males/female: LB: 18–20 / 20. Pr: 4–4.5 / 4. Teg: 14–15 / 14. HF: 9–10 / 9. HT: 9.5–10/ 9. SP: 2–2.5 / 2.5. Ov: 7.5.</p><p>Variation. Only the number of spines on the femora or tibiae, which vary even in the same specimen, a male paratype had five spines on the outer margin and only two spines on the inner one.</p><p>Comments. The specimens collected in Coper, Boyacá, were found at night on citrus plants (tangerine) but were very fast and hard to capture. The males vibrated on the leaves and arranged their antennae in front of the body. The female also projected the antennae and touched with them the leaves where the males trembled, approaching each other to copulate later.</p><p>iNaturalist photographs of a male specimen of this species have been found, and the link is shared below: Moniquirá, Boyacá (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/131778261). With the above data, the distribution of this species occurs between 1200 m. at 2250 m., in the humid and high Andean forests of the eastern slope of the Andes Mountains range, on the side that borders the Magdalena River valley in the departments of Boyacá and Santander.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03850E7BED552A2E90E5FD05FEE7B9FA	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
