Diagnosis.
Apparent body length (ABL) 19-20 mm; similar in general body form and appearance to
Cypholoba gracilis gracilis
and
Cypholoba gracilis scrobiculata
but differing from those two subspecies in the pronotal surface sculpturing, as noted in the key. There are also subtle differences in the arrangement and size of the elytral punctures and elytral costae between all three subspecies (see Figs 6-10).
Materials examined.
6 specimens from the following localities: RSA: KwaZulu/Natal Province: "E. Zululand,"
"Zululand."
