|
The genus Mimoscudderia is characterized by fastigium of vertex narrow, furrowed, not contiguous with fastigium of frons, wide eyes (higher than large), pronotum rounded in metazona, little enlarged in prozona, tegmina rather narrow, all femora inferiorly armed, hind genicular lobes provided with two small spines, and styli absent. It is known only from Madagascar, where Carl (1914) described two species, one only on the female sex, the other on both sexes. The specimen listed below is tentatively placed within this genus (the eyes are round, not wide and elliptical, like in other Mimoscudderia ); its characters allow to ascribe it to a new species.
