Description

Large; elongate; subconvex; reddish brown with eyes and antennomeres 6–11 black. Head: vertex impunctate, slight medial sulcus present; frons not projecting; slightly depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; robust; antennomere 1 incrassate, as long as 2–3 combined; 2 and 3 elongate, with projection on inner margins in male, cylindrical in female; 5–10 transverse, subequal in length, each shorter than 4; 11 rounded at apex, subequal in length to 1; 1–6 punctate with scattered setae; 7–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight then rounding to anterior angle, canaliculate; anterior angle rounded, produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin emarginate behind head; disc subconvex; surface with scattered large, shallow punctures, disc virtually impunctate; basal impression absent; pronotal length 1.3 mm; pronotal width 2.3 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; convex; punctures shallow, rows confused at apex; humeral callus virtually impunctate; declivity beginning just behind humerus along puncture row 7 with weak carina; elytral length 5.5 mm; elytral width 3.3 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 complete; female with last sternite with apical margin bisinuate, weakly emarginate medially in male. Leg: robust; punctate; tibia curved, incised, with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 7.2 mm.

Diagnosis

This species is similar to Cephaloleia fulvolimbata and Cephaloleia gratiosa. It can be distinguished by the impunctate disc of the pronotum, by the larger size, and by the elytral punctures being confused apically.

Distribution

Costa Rica, Panama.
