The front pair is narrowed and thickened with veins showing, and has a bendable flexibility like leather. The hind wings are membranous and fold accordion-like beneath the front wings. Both pairs of wings lay parallel against abdomen when the katydid is at rest. The wings of the narrowwinged katydid extend well past the tip of the abdomen. This katydid has extremely long antennae, much longer than the length of the body, a characteristic that distinguishes it from grasshoppers.
Legs are well developed for jumping.
At the tip of the abdomen are two protruding structures called cerci. Anastatus koebelei Ashmead and Ufens elimaeae Timberlake. This pest does not develop large populations. However, they are easily controlled with registered pesticides. Destructive and Useful Insects Their Habits and Control, Fourth Edition.
