Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

Colasposoma aeneoviolaceum is a species of leaf beetle of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.[1] It was first described by the Belgian entomologist Шаблон:Ill in 1941.

Description

Adults measure between 7 and 10 mm in length. They have a shiny bronze-coloured dorsum, while the edges of the pronotum, the underparts and the feet are violet in colour. However, one specimen from Moliro was found with a blue underside. The species generally resembles Colasposoma overlaeti.[2]

Subspecies

There are two subspecies of C. aeneoviolaceum:[2]

  • Colasposoma aeneoviolaceum aeneoviolaceum Burgeon, 1941: the nominotypical subspecies
  • Colasposoma aeneoviolaceum elisabethae Burgeon, 1941: Compared to the nominal form, the adults differ in their bronze colouring, have a cupreous or tanned underside, and have less abundant elytral punctuation. The subspecies was described from Élisabethville (now Lubumbashi), in the south of Katanga.
