Chandranshu Tiwari, Department of Environmental Studies, University of Delhi, 110007 (Delhi), India.  Paratype: Assam, Hollangapar Gibbon Wildlife Sanctuary,  Jorhat ~ 120 m a.s.l., 2021 Coll. Chandranshu Tiwari (2 ♂). </p>
            <p> Type locality.  Hollangapar Gibbon Wildlife Sanctuary , Jorhat, Assam, India. </p>
            <p>Measurements (length in mm): Body 26.67 (4.65); tegmen 31.95 (1.24); pronotum 8.13 (1.48); fore-femora 8.35 (1.11); mid-femora 8.57 (1.42); hind-femora 21.25 (3.53); fore-tibia 9.61 (2.79); mid-tibia 9.33 (2.39); hind-tibia 22.34 (1.77); file 2.1 (0.0).</p>
            <p>Distribution: Nocturnal. Found only in the dense understorey. In addition to the type locality, the new species was also recorded by the collector in ONGC colony, Cinnamara in Jorhat. The species is likely to be distributed in North-East Himalayas.</p>
            <p>Seasonal occurrence: The species was recorded from the type locality during monsoon and wet post-monsoon period.</p>

            <p> Type locality.  Hollangapar Gibbon Wildlife Sanctuary , Jorhat, Assam, India. </p>
            <p>Measurements (length in mm): Body 25.43 (1.24); Tegment 32.14 (1.39); Pronotum 5.22 (0.61); Fore-femora 8.54 (0.54); mid-femora 7.24 (0.99); hind-femora 12.79 (0.45); Fore tibia 7.95 (0.55); Mid tibia 6.40 (0.17); hind-tibia 11.65 (1.06); file 4.4 (0.54).</p>
            <p>Distribution: Nocturnal. Found only inside the dense understorey. In addition to the type locality, The collector also heard the same call type in Namdapha Tiger Reserve, Arunachal Pradesh. The species is likely to be distributed in North-East Himalayas.</p>
            <p>Seasonal occurrence: The species was observed perennially at the type locality.</p>
            <p>Etymology: The species is named after Izuku Midoriya, the eighth inheritor of One for All and the protagonist in the manga series My Hero Academia (Boku no Hīrō Akademia) by Kōhei Horikoshi. Like its namesake the species is green and difficult to locate in the dense understorey while simultaneously being the most distinct part of the acoustic community (Midori=green).</p>
            <p> Differential diagnosis: The species is similar to  Phyllomimus detersus (Walker 1869) but differs in the following characters: Fore femora and mid femora unarmed, hind tibia with 2 rows of ventral spines, post tibial joint with distinct blue-green ring. Tegmen with silver-gray spots in radial field. The call pattern of  P. midoriyae matches to  P. inversus in temporal but differs in having a narrower bandwidth in case of  P. midoriyae (Heller 1995; Tiwari and Diwakar 2023a). </p>
            <p>Description:</p>
            <p>Male: Body stout. Head narrower than the fore border of the prothorax; keel of the vertex lanceolate, furrowed, a little narrower than the first joint of the antennae; front forming a little cone between the sockets of the antennae. Eyes prominent, short-elliptical.Antennae more than twice the length of the body, with short dark bands. Pronotum finely tuberculated, with an indistinct longitudinal impressed line and two strongly marked transverse impressed lines, which slightly converge towards one other on each side, and of which the hind one is more abbreviated than the fore one; fore border and hind border much rounded; sides slightly rounded. Legs stout. Fore- and mid-femora unarmed, hind-femora less than half the length of tegmen with a row of eight small spines. Fore tibia dorsally unarmed, ventrally armed with 5 spines on inner and outer margin. Mid tibia unarmed. Hind-tibia armed with 9 spines on inner and outer margin dorsally, 6 spines on inner and outer margin on ventral side. Wings equal length to tegmen. Tegmen minutely reticulated; costa and interior border nearly straight; three irregular rows of areolets between the scapular vein and the costa; scapular and externomedial vein contiguous for about two-thirds of the length, where they part and are lost in branching; three irregular rows of areolets between the externomedial and the anal vein, and one row of regular quadrate areolets between the latter and the interior border. Tegmen at the base of the radial field, decorated with silver-gray spots. Hind wings pellucid. Stridulatory file with 230±5 teeth (n=3), teeth densely arranged and uniform throughout the length.</p>
            <p>Male genitalia. Subgenital lamina elongate, with two clavate styles, Cerci poorly cast, short, tipped with a small black tip. Supra-anal plates small and triangular.</p>
            <p> Female: unknown. Supposed to be similar to that of  P. detersus . </p>
            <p>Coloration: Green. Antennae light green with short dark bands apically. Tegmen appears green/yellow when live with silver-gray spots in the radial field, but is hyaline with veins and brownish spots. All femora and tibia light green when alive. Post tibial joint with distinct blue-green ring.</p>

            <p> Differential diagnosis: The new species is similar to  Euconocephalus farooqii (Shah and Usmani 2022) but differs in the following traits: smaller size; fastigium shorter and with a weak median carinula, lateral carinae absent; straight stridulatory file with more than 60 teeth, fore and mid-femora dorsoventrally unarmed, supra-anal plate with obtuse apex, subgenital shorter and broader without the middle fringe, styli comparatively shorter. </p>
            <p>Description</p>
            <p>Male: body small and slender. Head. Conical in profile; fastigium of vertex conical, slightly extending beyond the base of antennae and separated from fastigium of frons by a notch with a small ventral tubercle present at the base of fastigium, dorsal surface smooth with a weak medial carinula. Apex rounded. eyes more or less spherical. Pronotum dorsal lateral sulcus barely visible; posterior dorsal margin broadly rounded, anterior margin almost straight; lateral carinae absent; lateral lobes of pronotum longer than high with distinct humeral sinus. Prosternum bispinose, mesosternal and metasternal lobes more or less triangular with a longitudinal dark band in the middle.</p>
            <p>Legs. genicular lobes of fore femora spineless on both side; genicular lobes of mid femora spines on inner side with a single spine and spineless on outer side; genicular lobes of hind femora with a single spine on both inner and outer side; fore coxae with a long spine; all femora dorsally spineless, fore- and mid-femora ventrally unarmed, hind-femora ventrally armed with 7 spines on inner and 6 spines on outer margin. Tympanum on fore-tibia conchate, tympanal slits facing forward with a pair of small elongated pits laterally just below the tympanum; fore- and midtibiae dorsally spineless; fore-tibiae armed ventrally with 6 spines on outer and 4 spines on inner margin. Mid tibia armed ventrally with 7 spines on outer and 5 spines on inner margin. Hind tibia dorsally armed with 24 small spines and 25 small spines on inner and outer margin respectively, ventrally armed with 7 and 6 small spines on inner and outer margin respectively. Single dorsal pair of spurs and two ventral pairs (outer large and inner being small) of spurs present at the apical region of hind tibiae. Wings. tegmina longer than hind wings but not extending beyond the hind wings; apices rounded. wings surpassing the middle of hind tibia when folded. Stridulatory file on the ventral side of left tegmen with 73±12 (n=5) teeth. Sulcate with slight curve, narrowing towards the distal end, medially wide.</p>
            <p>Male genitalia. Male tenth abdominal tergite with two incurved lobes on posterior margin and triangular excision between them; median carina faintly visible. Supra-anal plate with obtuse apex, subgenital shorter and broader without the middle fringe, styli comparatively shorter. Cerci thick with two incurved teeth, dorsal tooth short with long spine ventral tooth large with small spine.</p>
            <p>Female. Unknown</p>
            <p>Coloration. Both green and brown morphs. Apex of fastigium white. Antennae light colored. Sternum unicolor with a longitudinal brown band interrupted in the middle. Femora unicolor to the morph. Tibia brown in both color morphs.</p>
            <p>Depositories: The specimens are deposited in the Department of Environmental Studies, Faculty of Science, University of Delhi.</p>
