Material examined (12 specimens). Papua New Guinea: East New Britain, Pomio, Nakanai Mts., Lamas, elev. 200 m (5°36'50.7''S, 151°24'28.9''E), 3–9.iv.2009, coll. P. Naskrecki— 3 males, 5 nymphs; Palmalmal, Women’s Guest House, elev. 2 m (5°37'47.7''S, 151°29'33.3''E), 25–26.iv.2009, coll. P. Naskrecki— 1 male (MCZ); New Ireland— 1 male (holotype) (MHNG); New Britain— 1 male (syntype) (MZPW); New Guinea: coll. A. Müller— 1 female (ZMHB).
Note. This species was recorded stridulating at night (around 20:30) from low, shrubby vegetation along the coast of the Jacquinot Bay in the village of Palmalmal. The stridulating male was sitting on a branch of a tall bush, about 2 m above the ground; the recording was made from a distance of about 1 m. The call (Figs. 2 A–B) consisted of short, loud syllables (as defined by Ragge, 1990), produced with the frequency of 6 syllables/s at 26°C; each syllable lasted 0.027 s (±0.0036, n=40).
