Description
Slightly elongate; subparallel; large; subconvex; shining; reddish; elytra with dark macula near scutellum, a second at humerus and third near apex. Head: vertex sparsely, irregularly punctate, medial sulcus absent; frons not projecting; not depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; slender; antennomere 1 incrassate, elongate; 2 ½ length of 1; 3 longer than 2 but shorter than 1; 4–10 transverse; 4 shorter than 3; 5 as long as wide, shorter than 4; 6 longer than 5; 7–10 subequal in length, each shorter than 6; 11 2× length of 10, elongate-oval; 2–4 triangularly compressed in male; 1–5 punctate with scattered setae; 6–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight, slightly divergent then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle angulate, slightly produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin emarginate behind head; disc flattened; surface sparsely, irregularly punctate; basal impression absent; pronotal length 1.9–2.1 mm; pronotal width 2.4–2.6 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; sparsely punctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, narrowly margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; moderately punctate-striate, punctures confused apically; elytral length 7.5–7.8 mm; elytral width 3.1–3.5 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate; abdominal sterna punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 complete; last sternite with apical margin weakly rounded, almost truncate in male, bisinuate in female. Leg: slender; impunctate; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 9.7–10.2 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia quinquemaculata and Cephaloleia sagittifera. It can be distinguished by the lateral margin of the pronotum being straight and divergent, not canaliculate.
