Description

Elongate; flattened; subparallel; head (except yellow frons), antennae, and scutellum black; pronotum yellow with black medial macula on anterior and basal margins; elytra black with yellow vitta which begins at interspace 4 and extends to interspace 7 from humerus and extends to near apical margin, lateral margin black; venter with prosternum yellow with black macula beyond coxae; mesosternum yellow medially, black laterally; metasternum black; abdominal sterna yellowish-orange with black vitta on lateral margin; leg with femur yellow with black ring at apex; tibia and tarsi black. Head: vertex punctate, with V-shaped sulcus between eyes; eyes slightly protruding, finely faceted; frons punctate, not projecting; depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; slender; antennomere 1 elongate, robust, compressed; 2 transverse, ⅓ length of 1; 3–4 elongate, projection on inner angle, 3 1½ x length of 2; 4 shorter than 3; 5–10 transverse, subequal in length, each shorter than 4; 11 2× length of 10, pointed at apex; 1–3 punctate with scattered setae; 4–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle rounded, slightly produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin straight; disc flattened; surface impunctate; basal impression absent; pronotal length 1.4–1.7 mm; pronotal width 1.7–1.9 mm. Scutellum: broadly triangular; alutaceous. Elytron: lateral margin straight, narrowly margined, smooth; apex rounded; sutural angle with minute tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; declivity beginning just behind humerus at puncture row 7 edged with faint carina; moderately punctate-striate; punctures in vitta larger than those on rest of elytron; elytral length 5.6–6.0 mm; elytral width 2.6–2.8 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate medially, punctate laterally, each puncture with pale seta; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 complete; last sternite with apical margin emarginate medially in male, truncate in female. Leg: sparsely punctate; femur robust; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 7.6–8.1 mm.

Diagnosis

This species is similar to Cephaloleia championi, Cephaloleia luctuosa, and Cephaloleia vicina. It can be distinguished by the head being depressed between the eyes, by the impunctate pronotum, by antennomeres 3 and 4 being triangular, and by the larger punctures in the elytral vitta.

Comments

Preliminary analysis of the CO1 gene indicates that cryptic species may be present under the current application of this species name. Further work is needed to resolve this question.

Host plant

Adults have been collected on Heliconia imbricata (Kuntze) Baker (Heliconiaceae) (Staines 1996[9]).
