| description |
A boldly marked, yellow and black species. The head is obtusely angled and the apex rounded. The pronotum has a distinct yellow transverse band. The large yellow "saddle" on the wings is elliptical and elongate, extending from the scutellum to about 2/3 of the way down the wings; this yellow spot covers most of the clavi. The yellow claval spot is bordered by thick black coloration on the wings and scutellum; the costal border on each wing consists of a yellowish streak that becomes larger towards the apical cells, which are blackish. Two small black dots are located on the edge of the head. The underside of the abdomen and thorax are yellow. The female pregenital sternite is about twice as wide as long, and the posterior margin is uniformly convex on either side of a median spatulate process; the median emargination is broadly V-shaped and deep, while the spatulate process is about twice as long as the basal width produced up to the posterior margin, with parallel sides. Adults are 5.5-6.0 mm long. (Beirne, 1956; Nielson, 1957)

NOTE: This species could be confused with C. clitellarius and C. furculatus, but note that this species tends to be larger and the shape of the yellow spot on the wings is highly distinctive and different. |
