Description

Elongate; subparallel; large, subdepressed, yellowish-brown; eyes dark; antennomeres 1, 2, 11 yellowish, 3–10 dark; scutellum black; elytra with black sutural and lateral vittae and two black maculae after middle; pronotum sometimes with black longitudinal medial vitta. Head: vertex impunctate, with fine medial carina; keel present between antennae; frons projecting; not depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; slender; antennomere 1 incrassate, clavate, elongate, as long as 2–4 combined; 2–4 transverse, compressed with interior projection, 2–3 subequal in length, 4 shorter; 5–10 transverse, subequal in length, each shorter than 4; 11 2× length of 10, rounded at apex; 1–3 punctate with scattered setae; 4–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse but much narrower than base of elytra; lateral margin straight for basal ¾ then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle rounded, slightly produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin emarginate behind head; disc flattened; surface with scattered, fine punctures; basal impression absent; pronotal length 1.7–1.9 mm; pronotal width 2.0 mm. Scutellum: elongate, acutely triangular; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, margined; apex rounded; suture angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; declivity beginning just behind humerus along puncture row 7 with weak carina; finely punctate-striate; puncture rows converge and unite at apex, but are slightly confused; elytral length 6.0–6.4 mm; elytral width 2.6–3.0 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 obsolete medially; last sternite with apical margin weakly rounded in male, bisinuate in female. Leg: robust; femur and tibia punctate; tibia dentate at apex, with setae on inner apical ⅓. Total length: 8.1–9.0 mm.

Diagnosis

This species is similar to Cephaloleia adusta and Cephaloleia championi. It can be distinguished by the elytral declivity along puncture row 7, by the elytral punctures being distinct after the middle, and by the suture between abdominal sterna 1 and 2 being obsolete medially.

Host plant

Adults have been collected in young rolled leaves of Heliconia sp. (Heliconiaceae), Calathea insignis Hort. and Bull. (Staines 1996[9]); Cephaloleia crotalifera S. Watson, Cephaloleia lutea G. Mey. (Marantaceae) (García–Robledo et al. 2013a[16]).

Distribution

Costa Rica, Panama.
