Description
Elongate; subdepressed; bright shining red; antennomeres 1-6 red, 7-11 black. Head: vertex smooth, faint medial sulcus present; sparsely, irregularly punctate around eye; frons not projecting; not depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; robust; antennomere 1 compressed, subclavate, obliquely truncate at apex, longer than 2; 2–3 in male triangularly expanded, elongate in female; 3 longer than 2; 4–10 transverse, each shorter than 2, decreasing in length; 11 2× length of 10, bluntly rounded at apex; 1–6 punctate with scattered setae; 7–11 setose. Pronotum: subquadrate; lateral margin straight then rounding to anterior angle, canaliculate; anterior angle obtuse, produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin emarginate behind head, slightly curved; disc subconvex; surface distinctly but sparsely punctate; transverse medial basal impression present; pronotal length 2.0–2.2 mm; pronotal width 2.9–3.2 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, narrowly margined; apex obtusely rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; constricted behind humerus; moderately convex, scarcely flattened at suture; short longitudinal sulcus present at base near humerus; moderately punctate-striate, punctures large, ovate; pygidium obtusely rounded; elytral length 6.7–7.0 mm; elytral width 3.6–4.0 mm. Venter: prosternum impunctate; meso- and metasterna impunctate medially, punctate laterally; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 obsolete medially; last sternite with apical margin rounded, sinuate at apex in male, rounded, entire in female. Leg: slender; sparsely punctate; femur robust; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 9.0–9.6 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia apicicornis, Cephaloleia halli, Cephaloleia ochra sp. n., and Cephaloleia proxima. It can be distinguished by having a transverse basal impression on the pronotum.
Host plant
Accodring to data adults have been collected feeding on Calathea inocephala (Kuntze) H. Kennedy, Cephaloleia lutea Schult. (Marantaceae), and Heliconia stricta Huber (Heliconiaceae).
Distribution
Bolivia, Brazil (Amazonas, Minas Gerais, Pará, Rondonia), Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Peru.
