Literature

Cole, Jeffrey A. (2010). Clinal variation explains taxonomic discrepancy in the calling songs of shield-back katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Tettigoniinae: Aglaothorax). Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 101(4): 910 - 921.

Behaviour

Tinkham (1944) confused this species with N. ovata and his remarks for that species apply here. He described the song of this species as "a strong zip-zip broken by a pause of several seconds and quite distinct from the zic-zic-zic of segnis" (here considered N. o. gigantea). Tinkham also stated the call could be heard for a distance of about 100 feet.
