Description
Elongate; subparallel; subconvex; reddish-yellow; antennomere 1 yellowish, 2–3 reddish-brown, 4–11 darker; head and scutellum black; elytra reddish-yellow with dark sutural vitta for basal ½ and wide black vitta from humerus curving to suture near apex, lateral and apical margins reddish-yellow; venter and legs reddish-yellow. Head: vertex finely punctate, medial sulcus present; frons not projecting; not depressed between eyes. Antenna: reaches to humerus; slender; antennomeres 1–5 elongate, cylindrical; 2 ¾ length of 1; 3 subequal to 1; 4–5 subequal, each ¾ length of 3; 6–10 transverse, subequal in length; 11 2× length of 10, pointed at apex; 1–4 punctate with scattered setae; 5–11 setose. Pronotum: transverse; lateral margin straight then rounding to anterior angle, smooth, narrowly margined; anterior angle rounded, not produced; posterior angle acute; anterior margin curved posteriorly; disc subconvex; surface distinctly punctate with impunctate medial longitudinal line; transverse impression present behind middle; pronotal length 1.3–1.5 mm; pronotal width 1.5–1.7 mm. Scutellum: pentagonal; impunctate. Elytron: lateral margin straight, smooth; narrowly margined; apex rounded; sutural angle without tooth; humerus rounded, not produced; constricted behind humerus; declivity beginning just behind humerus at puncture row 7 edged with faint carina; punctures small, fine basally, larger apically, rows converge and unite apically; scutellar row long; elytral length 4.1–4.8 mm; elytral width 2.0–2.4 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 rounded 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: 5.5–6.5 mm.
Diagnosis
This species is similar to Cephaloleia picta. It can be distinguished by the vertex of the head with a medial sulcus and by the basal impression on the pronotum.
