Genus Polyzosteria Burmeister, 1838

Polyzosteria yingina is a conventional member of this genus because it is: large, apterous and diurnal; with the margins of the pronotum forming low, rolled edges; the angles of T7 are acute; the hind tarsal segments are bare; the dorsal surfaces of the tibiae are flattened with the spines in two rows; and the cerci and styles are very short ( Mackerras 1965, Rentz 2014).
