Figures 114–119 View FIGURE 114 View FIGURE 115 View FIGURE 116 View FIGURE 117 View FIGURE 118 View FIGURE 119

Diagnosis. Vein MA with four main branches reaching wing margin ( Fig. 115 View FIGURE 115 ). Mesobasisternum anteriorly slightly convex; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight, posteriorly slightly convex, forming a posterolaterally with blunt tip ( Fig. 114E View FIGURE 114 ). Metabasisternum anteriorly straight with two small convex lateral protuberances; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight and posteriorly convex, posterolaterally with blunt pit forming an angle of 120° ( Fig. 114E View FIGURE 114 ). Apex of cercus with rectangular projection and small lateral spine, with a dark brown color ( Fig. 114K View FIGURE 114 ).

Description. Holotype Male.

Thorax. Mesobasisternum triangular, anteriorly slightly convex; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight, posteriorly slightly convex, forming a posterolaterally with blunt tip ( Fig. 114E View FIGURE 114 ). Metabasisternum triangular, anteriorly straight with two small convex lateral protuberances; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight and posteriorly convex, posterolaterally with blunt pit forming an angle of 120° ( Fig. 114E View FIGURE 114 ).

Wings. Vein MA with four main branches reaching wing margin ( Fig. 115 View FIGURE 115 ). Left stridulatory file slightly curved; basal teeth minor ( Fig. 116A View FIGURE 116 ). Total file length of 4.3 mm, greater vein width of 0.7 mm and a total of 144 teeth. Rigth stridulatory file basally curved, medianally and apically straight; basal teeth wider and more spaced apart ( Fig. 116B View FIGURE 116 ). Total length file of 2.7 mm, widest vein of 0.2 mm and total of 120 teeth.

Legs. Hind femur with expanded region equivalent to 1/2 of the total femur length ( Fig. 114H View FIGURE 114 ).

Abdomen. Cercus slightly curved inwards, with the apex half not expanded ( Figs. 114I–K View FIGURE 114 ). Apex of cercus with rectangular projection and small lateral spine, with a dark brown color ( Fig. 114K View FIGURE 114 ). Stylus small and triangular ( Fig. 114I View FIGURE 114 ).

Internal male genitalia. Ejaculatory vesicles reniform ( Figs. 117A–D View FIGURE 117 ). Upper folds of ventral lobe short and not connected ( Figs. 117A–B View FIGURE 117 ). Titillator process trapeziodal ( Figs. 117A–D View FIGURE 117 ). Lower folds of ventral lobe bilobed, rounded and not exceeding the dorsal lobe ( Figs. 117A–B View FIGURE 117 ). Dorsal lobes anteriorly convex, posteriorly curved ( Figs. 117A–D View FIGURE 117 ). Dorsal folds elongated and asymmetric ( Figs. 117C–D View FIGURE 117 ).

Coloration. Based on photos of preserved specimen ( Fig. 114 View FIGURE 114 ). Body greenish-brown. Eyes ligth brown.

Female: Morphologically similar to the male, except by the following characteristics ( Figs. 118A–K View FIGURE 118 ):

Thorax. Mesobasisternum triangular, anteriorly straight; lateral lobes anterolaterally slightly convex, laterally straight, posteriorly slightly convex, forming a posterolateral blunt tip ( Fig. 118E View FIGURE 118 ). Metabasisternum triangular, anteriorly straight; lateral lobes anterolaterally convex, laterally straight and posteriorly convex, posterolaterally forming an angle of 120° ( Fig. 118E View FIGURE 118 ).

Wings. Unaltered anal veins for sound production ( Fig. 118A View FIGURE 118 ).

Abdomen. Cercus straight, apex acuminate ( Figs. 118H–J View FIGURE 118 ). Subgenital plate triangular, apex rounded and stylus absent ( Fig. 118H View FIGURE 118 ). Ovipositor curved and without teeth ( Fig. 118J View FIGURE 118 ).

Coloration. Based on photos of preserved specimen ( Fig. 118 View FIGURE 118 ). Ovipositor yellowish brown.

Etymology. The epithet is in apposition, riodoce in reference to the Doce River, which is located in the states of Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo ( Brazil), passing through the municipality of Sooretama (ES), where the species is registered.

Distribution. Brazil: Espirito Santo and Paraná ( Fig. 119 View FIGURE 119 ).
