The species was described by H.R. Roberts from a specimen from Chiapas in 1947.[1]
The largest females of the species can grow as long as 25 millimetres (0.98 in). Morphologically, the species can be identified by its larger size, its large tegmina which are long enough to pass behind the back femur, its wide and blunt cerci, and the shape and high level of sclerotization of parts of their genitalia.[2]: 317
