Description

Small; elongate; subparallel; subdepressed; head and legs reddish-brown; antennomeres 1–2 reddish-brown, rest darker; pronotum yellow with variable black markings; scutellum black; elytra yellow with variable black oblong markings; venter with pro-, meso-, and metasterna reddish-brown medially, black laterally, abdominal sterna reddish-brown; legs yellowish. Head: vertex densely punctate, faint medial carina present; frons punctate, not projecting; depressed between eyes. Antenna: ½ body length; slender; antennomere 1 elongate, cylindrical longer than 3; 2 transverse, short; 3–5 elongate, cylindrical, subequal in length; 6–10 transverse, subequal in length; 11 longer than 10, pointed at apex; 1–2 punctate with scattered setae; 3–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight then rounding to anterior angle, margined; anterior angle rounded, not produced; posterior angle angulate; anterior margin straight; base slightly excavated transversely; disc subconvex; surface strongly, densely punctate; pronotal length 0.7–0.9 mm; pronotal width 0.8–1.0 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; alutaceous. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth, margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; slightly constricted behind humerus; strongly punctate-striate, rows slightly confused at apex; elytral length 2.6–2.7 mm; elytral width 1.2–1.4 mm. Venter: pro-, meso-, and metasterna impunctate medially, punctate laterally; abdominal sterna 1–2 impunctate medially, punctate laterally; sterna 3–5 punctate, each puncture with pale seta; suture between sterna 1 and 2 obsolete medially. Leg: slender; punctate, each puncture with pale seta; tibia with fringe of setae on inner margin of apex. Total length: 3.4–3.8 mm.

Diagnosis

This distinctive species is recognized by the small size, by the vertex of the head being depressed between the eyes, by the densely punctate pronotum, and by the suture between abdominal sterna 1 and 2 being obsolete medially.

Host plant

Adults have been collected on Heliconia sp. (Heliconiaceae) leaves (Staines 1996[6]); Calathea micans (Mathieru) Koern. (McKenna and Farrell 2005[11]); Cephaloleia inocephala (Kuntze), Cephaloleia latifolia Klotzsch, Pleiostachya pruinosa (W. Bull. ex. Regel) K. Schum. (Meskins et al. 2008[13]); Calathea venusta H. Kenn. (Marantaceae) (García–Robledo et al. 2013a[15]); Tradescantia zanonia (L.) Sw. (Commelinaceae).
