Description
Narrow, elongate; subparallel; subconvex; black; shining. Head: vertex punctate, medial sulcus present; frons not projecting; depressed between eyes. Antenna: as long as head and pronotum combined; robust; antennomeres 1–2 robust, short, subequal in length; 3 elongate, longest; 4–10 transverse, subequal in length; 11 2× length of 10, pointed at apex; 1–2 punctate with scattered setae; 3–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin divergent from base then rounding to anterior angle, canaliculate; anterior angle rounded, slightly produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin emarginate behind head; disc subconvex; surface coarsely, densely punctate, longitudinal band impunctate medially; transverse basal impression present medially; pronotal length 1.1–1.5 mm; pronotal width 1.4–1.8 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, narrowly margined; apex rounded; sutural angle with small tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; finely punctate-striate, rows converge and unite apically; elytral length 3.9–4.4 mm; elytral width 1.8–2.2 mm. Venter: prosternum punctate; 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 emarginate medially in male, truncate in female. Leg: slender, punctate, each puncture with pale seta; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 5.0–5.9 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia coroicoana, Cephaloleia deplanata, Cephaloleia fiebrigi, and Cephaloleia rufipes. It can be distinguished by the basal impression on the pronotum, by the elytral puncutres being distinct basally and apically, and by the elytral puncture rows converging and uniting apically.
Distribution
Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil (Amazonas, Paraná, Rio Grande do Sul, São Paulo, Santa Catharina), Paraguay.
