A medium-sized, pale green katydid that can be identified by the presence of distinct, narrowly parallel lateral carinae on the dorsal surface of the pronotum; the area between the carinae is marked with a brown stripe that continues over the occiput of the head and the dorsal surfaces of antennal basal segments (Fig. 23A). Tegmina often carry white and brown spots that effectively mimic necrotic damage seen on leaves. (Fig. 23B). Bioacoustics. The call of A. exigua is a soft trill, audible from a far distance. The call is a train of short, nearly pure-tone echemes, each consisting of 4–5 syllables; mean syllable duration is 0.11327 s (SD=0.022119, n=84); the peak frequency of the call is 11.7–12.0 kHz (Figs. 57 A–C). Distribution and natural history. A. exigua is found across East and southern Africa, from Kenya and Tanzania, through Zimbabwe (Hemp ... : Published as part of Naskrecki, Piotr & Guta, Ricardo, 2019, Katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) of Gorongosa National Park and Central Mozambique, pp. 1-119 in Zootaxa 4682 (1) on page 54, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4682.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/3472787 ...
