The infuscation of the elytra is no more profuse than in grisea but is gathered in decidedly larger blotches, in this respect more like reticulata. The female is unknown to me. The measurements of the males are as follows: Length, pronotum, 13.5-14.5 mm.; elytra, 45-48 mm.[2]||A. N. Caudell|Notes on the Mantid genus Gonatista Sauss. Bureau of Entomology, U. S. Dept. of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.}}See also
