Description

Elongate; subdepressed; subparallel; hirsute; head and most of elytra black; antennomeres 1–8 black, 9–11 may be yellow, black or with the apex of 11 yellow; pronotum (some specimens with broad black medial longitudinal vitta) and lateral margin of elytra yellow; venter with pro-, meso-, and metasterna yellow medially, black laterally, abdominal sterna black medially, yellow laterally; leg with femur yellow, tibia and tarsi black. Head: almost as wide as apex of pronotum; vertex finely punctate, medial sulcus present; frons not projecting; depressed between eyes. Antenna: ½ body length; robust; antennomere 1 elongate; 2 ½ length of 1; 3 as long as 1–2 combined; 4–10 each shorter than 1, subequal in length, conical; 11 1½ length of 10, oval; 1–2 punctate with scattered setae; 3–11 densely setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin almost straight, weakly convergent apically then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle pointed; posterior angle rectangular; anterior margin weakly emarginate behind head; surface sparsely punctate; wide V-shaped depression present basally; pronotal length 1.0–1.4 mm; pronotal width 1.6–1.9 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, slightly produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; moderately punctate-striate; scutellar row very long; interspace 7 with additional puncture row; elytral length 5.9–7.3 mm; elytral width 2.3–2.8 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate medially, punctate laterally, each puncture with pale seta; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 complete; last sternite with apical margin straight in male, strongly curved in female. Leg: slender; punctate; femur and tibia with seta in each puncture; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin and tuft of setae at apex. Total length: 7.4–10.0 mm.

Diagnosis

This species is bicolored with the pronotum immaculate and lighter than the elytra. It is most similar to Cephaloleia disjuncta but can easily be distinguished by the additional row of punctures on the elytra and the coloration.

Host plant

Heliconia sp. (Heliconiaceae) (Uhmann 1930a[1]).

Distribution

Costa Rica, Panama.
