Description

Large; subparallel; subdepressed, flattened; variable in color- reddish-brown with black eyes and black central maculae on apical ½ of elytra; or black head, antennae, and elytra, and reddish brown pronotum; or totally reddish brown; antennae black, sometimes with antennomeres 1–3 yellow; venter with prosternum yellow, meso- and metasterna yellow medially and black laterally, abdominal sterna black with yellow side margin; legs with femur yellow with black apex, tibiae black at base and apex. Head: vertex sparsely punctate, medial carina present; frons not projecting; depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches beyond humerus; slender; antennomeres 1–5 compressed; 1 clavate, incrassate, elongate, very compressed; 2 and 4 elongate, subequal in length, dilated interiorly at apex, 3 longer than 2 or 4; 4 subtriangular; 5–10 transverse, subequal in length, each shorter than 4; 11 rounded at apex, elongate, ¾ length of 1; 1–3 punctate with scattered setae; 4–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight for basal ¾ then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle rounded, slightly produced; posterior angle angulate; anterior margin emarginate behind head; disc subconvex; surface finely, sparsely punctate; disc almost impunctate; basal impression absent; pronotal length 1.6–2.1 mm; pronotal width 1.9–2.7 mm. Scutellum: triangular; shining; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; declivity beginning just behind humerus along puncture row 7 edged with faint carina; subconvex, disc flattened; moderately punctate-striate; puncture rows converge and unite at apex; elytral length 6.7–8.0 mm; elytral width 3.4–3.7 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 complete; last sternite with apical margin slightly sinuate in male, rounded in female. Leg: robust; tibia with setae on inner apical ⅓ and fringe of setae at apex; protibial basal marking extends along outer edge almost to apex. Total length: 9.1–10.3 mm.

Diagnosis

This species is similar to Cephaloleia flava and Cephaloleia fulvolimbata. It can be distinguished by the impunctate pronotal disc, by the larger size, and by the elytral puncture rows being regular apically.

Host plant

Adults have been collected off flowers of Heliconia bourgaeana Peterson (Heliconiaceae) (Frank and Morón 2012[19]).

Distribution

Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama.
