Distribution: Kenya, Somalia.
Etymology: This species is dedicated	to Justin	S.	Bartlett	(Brisbane,	Queensland,	Australia),	a	colleague	and
friend of the senior author.

This species, at first view, is very similar to S. fulvoplagiata , but differs from this species by the coarsely punctate and sinuate pronotum, the shape of the elytral fascia and the coloration of the elytral apex.
