Unlike other Conocephalus, which are green, this species is primarily brown. The female ovipositor is curved, which is unusual for this genus. The male has pale veins in the wings in the stridulatory area. Male cerci are unique, as for other species in this genus. Body length 13-15 mm (Blatchley 1920). Learning the song can help locate and identify this species.
