Abstract
Lichenodraculus matti gen. et sp. nov. is described, along with its conspicuous diurnal calling song and some aspects of its interesting ecology and life history. The song allowed a complete acoustic assessment of the altitudinal distribution of this otherwise very cryptic canopy-dwelling insect. The nymph perfectly mimics epiphytic lichens growing in the same elevation range, and apparently the downside of this camouflage is a strictly lichenous diet.
