Description
Elongate; subparallel; subdepressed; yellowish; antennae, head, and pronotum (except reddish lateral margin) darker. Head: vertex finely, irregularly punctate, medial sulcus present; frons projecting; slightly depressed between eyes. Antenna: as long as head and pronotum combined; robust; antennomere 1 incrassate, elongate, 2 x length of 2; 2 transverse; 3–4 cylindrical, elongate; 3 ¾ length of 1; 4 shorter than 3; 5 transverse, shorter than 4; 5 transverse, shorter than 4; 6–10 transverse, subequal in length, each shorter than 5; 11 2× length of 10, pointed at apex; 1–4 punctate with scattered setae; 5–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight for basal ¾ then rounding to anterior angle, canaliculate; anterior angle rounded, not produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin weakly emarginate behind head; disc subconvex; surface irregularly punctate except impunctate longitudinal medial line; transverse basal impression present medially; pronotal length 1.2–1.6 mm; pronotal width 1.6–2.0 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, narrowly margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; constricted behind humerus; flattened along suture; finely punctate-striate, punctures confused apically; elytral length 4.1–4.6 mm; elytral width 2.3–2.6 mm. Venter: pro-, 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 laterally emarginate and rounded medially in male, broadly emarginate laterally and weakly curved medially in female. Leg: slender; punctate; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 5.7–6.5 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia collaris and Cephaloleia flavipennis. It can be distinguished by the transverse basal impression on the pronotum and the canalicultae lateral margins of the pronotum.
Host plant
Heliconia aurea G. Rodriquez, Heliconia bihai L. (Seifert and Seifert 1979b[7]). According to the label data, adults have been collected on Heliconia stricta Huber (Heliconiaceae).
Distribution
Bolivia, Brazil (Rondonia), Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, Venezuela.
Type material
