| description |
A dark brown, rusty-colored species with contrasting pale wing venation. The crown is roundedly pointed, and there may be some small thin, transverse lines on the crown. The wings are long and greatly extend past the tip of the abdomen. The male subgenital plates are large and have thickened bases with curved, strongly diverging tips; there are scattered hairs on the sides. The female pregenital sternite is somewhat trilobate, with a prominent median projection; the sternite is colored dark brown around this median tooth. Adults are 7.0-8.0 mm long. (DeLong 1918)

NOTE: Chlorotettix is a notriously difficult genus to identify to species visually; a majority of the species are various shade of yellow and green, and they can only be reliably distinguished by looking at genital features. Therefore, it is very important for all Chlorotettix species other than necopinus and tergatus to obtain a picture of the underside.
This species is most similar to C. iridescens, as both species are brownish. However, they differ in male subgenital plates and female pregenital sternite. |
