Nov. M-2</p><p>Type species: Ozphyllum kuranda Rentz, Su &amp; Ueshima gen. et sp. nov., here designated.</p><p>1. * Named with reference to country of origin; neuter gender.</p><p>Description.—Male/Female. Size moderate for subfamily in Australia, form robust; both sexes fully winged. Head globular, smooth, occiput somewhat produced, subacute; fastigium of vertex minute, produced, somewhat species distinctive; frons with clypeus and labrum somewhat rough and depressed. Antenna with scape and pedicel normal, not modified; flagellum, normal, thin, extending well beyond tip of abdomen; scrobes produced on internal margins. Eye ovoid, bulging (Figs. 1, 2). Thoracic auditory structure very large, open, only partially concealed by lateral lobe of pronotum. Pronotum with surface flat, undulating, not shining; surface of disk traversed by a deep sulcus in anterior 1/5, median portion of disk with a distinct U-shaped sulcus; lateral lobe smooth, much deeper than broad, surface somewhat undulating. Prosternum unarmed, mesosternum armed with a pair of moderately large quadrate processes, metasternum with a pair of much smaller processes. Male tegmina ovoid to subquadrate, produced on anterior margin in males; costa absent, subcosta and radius fused and diverging only at apex; stridulatory region species distinctive in degree of sclerotisation, stridulatory vein with a similar secondary vein, mirror absent; stridulatory file (Figs. 7A–D), gently arching, teeth lamellar; female tegmen subquadrate, apex obtuse. Fore coxa with a minute protuberance, somewhat spiniform; all other coxae and trochanters unarmed. Fore legs with fore tibia with auditory tympanum open (Fig. 6E) on both sides; tibia quadrate in cross section, dorsal surface unarmed, ventral surface with 4–5 minute spines along margins, apex with a much longer spine externally; fore femur subcylindrical, ventral surface flat, margins produced, armed only on anterior surface with a few minute spines. Middle legs longer than fore legs; tibia quadrate, somewhat expanded in proximal portion, dorsal surface flat, margins produced, armed only at apex on posterior margin with a single spine, ventral surface flat, armed on anterior margin with many small spines, one apical in position, posterior margin with 2 spines, one apical in position. Hind legs with femur smooth, without any trace of sculpture, ventral surface with a few minute spines on each side, those near the apex somewhat larger (Fig. 6D). Tarsi typical of subfamily, without any trace of plantula (Fig. 6D). Genicular lobes of fore and middle femora armed with a pair of minute spines on both sides, hind femur with a much larger pair of spines. Abdomen unmodified: tenth tergite not highly modified, supra-anal plate evenly obtuse (Fig. 5A); paraprocts not modified; male cercus elongate, apically species distinctive (Figs. 5A, B; 6A–C, E), female cercus simple, styliform; phallic complex completely unsclerotised; male subgenital plate apically elongate, without styles (Fig. 5B), female subgenital plate short, with median incision. Ovipositor short, bud-like. Colour primarily green (Figs. 1, 2). Head distinctively coloured with genae and frons species distinctive: antenna dark brown, legs green and brown; tarsi dark brown. Tegmina uniformly green except as noted in descriptions below. Thorax often yellow on portions surrounding auditory structure. Abdomen dorsally tawny brown, or yellow, laterally green, each tergite, both dorsally and laterally with purple streaks; ventral surface of abdomen greenish yellow, or reddish brown, lateral portions often brighter yellow.</p><p>Discussion.—We have not been able to examine any specimens of Cosmophyllum olivaceum Blanchard, the type of the genus, with which Ozphyllum appears to be most closely related, but the figures in Brunner von Wattenwyl’s book (1878, Fig. 29, a–c) and those on the Orthoptera Species File plainly illustrate the similarity of the two genera. In habitus, tegminal venation and genitalic structure, they are remarkably alike. This is not the first tettigoniid example illustrating a relationship between the Australian fauna and that of Chile. Rentz &amp; Gurney (1985) describe the Coniungopterini, a tribe of the Conocephalinae with genera in both Australia and Chile. Ozphyllum seems to belong in or near the Brunner’s Group Acripezae, which is not far from Group Cosmophyllae which contains Cosmophyllum . The male subgenital plate of Ozphyllum more closely resembles that of the latter genus than it does that of Acripeza (see Brunner, 1878, Fig. 29c). The fastigium of the vertex is very similar to that of Acripeza but there is no illustration of that structure in Cosmophyllum . The male subgenital plates of both Cosmophyllum and Ozphyllum are remarkably similar to one another but different from that of Ac ripeza. The ovipositor of Cosmophyllum is very different from that of both of the genera above in that it is produced well beyond that abdomen and not bud-like. Because of the similarity of body shape and the structure of the tegmina and other characters noted above, we place Ozphyllum in Brunner’s Group Cosmophyllae, fully realizing that at some point a realignment of genera will eventually be necessary. Ozphyllum species are not normally attracted to lights.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03AC8562752F401DFF09F420FCFAF870	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Preps. 78-103, 106; 2 females).</p><p>Song.—The song of this species is produced late afternoon to mid evening and consists of two loud bursts in rapid succession followed by a pause of 30 seconds or more.</p><p>1. * Named with reference to the type locality.</p><p>Cytology.—Materials examined, as indicated above. The spermatogonial metaphase shows 31 chromosomes with the XO system (Fig. 4A). This comprises 15 pairs of chromosomes gradually decreasing in size from medium to small telocentrics and an unusually large telocentric X. At first metaphase there are 15 autosome bivalents and the large telocentric X (Fig. 4B). Several Asian and South American species have been studied but few of the Australian fauna have been published. 2n=21 and 25 seem to be the common chromosome numbers in the Australian fauna. Interestingly, the highest known number in the Australian phaneropterine fauna (2n=29) is in Ducetia, a predominantly Asian genus with a single known Australian species previously called D. japonica but now known not to be that species (S. Ingrisch, pers. com.)</p><p>The chromosomes of the Phaneropterinae, as far as known, range from 2n= 12 to 33 in the male, Hewitt (1979) and Ueshima, (unpublished). 2n=31 is the common predominant complement in this subfamily as well as in the Tettigoniidae (see Hewitt, 1979:121).</p><p>Discussion.—This species is common in the understorey of rainforests where it occurs. It seems to be active early in the evening and stops stridulating well before midnight. It has been found feeding on a variety of plants. It usually eats the tender young leaves before they harden. However, the species is not host specific and eats a number of garden perennials and shrubs. During the day, individuals rest motionless on the top surface of leaves.</p><p>The stridulatory file characteristics (Table 2) are distinctive for each of the two species herein described. But there is some suggestion of geographical variation (see Table 2). The samples of O. kuranda from the type locality and Paluma are rather uniform in number of teeth and length of file. The specimen from the Baldwin Swamp, however, has a shorter file and one with a much smaller number of teeth. When the teethper-millimeter parameter is used, it is seen to be quite similar to the others. In tegminal, genitalic and colour characters, the Baldwin Swamp specimens are clearly referable to this species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03AC856275294018FF09F39BFBDFF9BE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
