). While this locality is quite eccentric and would require confirmation, the southernmost parts of this Mexican State are in the transition between Nearctic and Neotropical realms, and included in the Caribbean Mesoamerican domain. Considering the large range of the species along a relatively continuous ecological domain, it is not entirely unreasonable eventually proving this record as valid.

Despite the availability of a reduced number of specimens of the new taxon, there is a significant amount of variation in several traits, mainly maculation, relative to the type. For example, the arcuate band is split in two spots, whereby the basal one is basally divergent from the subsutural stripe in the specimen from Turrialba in the NMCZ collection. This specimen also has the spot enclosed by humeral lunule narrowly separated from some of the surrounding features and with a clear trend to divide in two longitudinally arranged spots, which is the configuration that the specimen shows on the right elytron; something similar can be observed in the specimens from Cerro Zunil at NHM and the

from Bugaba (MCZ). Moreover, the lack of definition of the spots of apical declivity renders the one on the left elytron of the specimen free from the subsutural stripe. In turn, the milateral spot emits dark suffusion towards the lateral margin of elytra. Otherwise, this specimen matches other important features of the type, including the lack of apical spot, the humeral marking detached from basal margin of elytron, the configuration of sutural stripes or the large spot enclosed by humeral lunule. The humeral spot is narrowly connected to the dark basal margin of elytra in the

(MCZ) and the specimen from Cordoba (MCZ) lacks most of additional spots and has a well-developed midlateral spot, confluent with margin of elytron. The number of additional spots on lateral declivity of elytra tends to be smaller, and the spots themselves to be smaller as well, compared with the type.

Moreover, both species can be distinguished by the free divergent ends of the subsutural stripe, the presence of apical spot and a well-developed midlateral spot in the former, and also by the shape of pronotum, which is widest behind the middle in this species. Another species with similar coloration, large double spot enclosed by humeral lunule, ends of subsutural stripe completely fused with sutural stripe, generally lack of apical spot and again with a similar distribution than the new species is

Both species share a slightly cordiform shape of pronotum, arrangement and general features of markings on elytra, and large spot enclosed by humeral lunule, confluent with surrounding features, but they differ in colouration, particularly in the case of legs, reddish in the former, dark bronzy in the latter, and the heavy, confluent maculation, covering most of the elytra in the former.
