Petalocephala glauca

Petalocephala glauca (Melichar) Figs 6A–D. Ledropsis glauca Melichar 1903: 143, pl IV fig. 13. Petalocephala glauca (Melichar): Distant 1908: 165. Diagnosis. Female. Shining white with greenish yellow tinge, crown submargin bordered with faint orange. Pronotum with posterolateral margin adjacent to mesonotum strongly concave making the margin bordering mesonotum an angularly projected structure. Female sternite VII posterior margin slightly concave (Fig. 6C). Description. Female. Shining white with greenish yellow tinge, crown submargin bordered with faint orange, median carina fine, lateral margins in front of eyes convergent, apex angularly rounded; 0.91× as long as interocular distance, 1.39× as long as pronotum. Pronotum lateral margins slightly divergent posteriorly, distance between posterolateral angles 1.08× as long as that of anterolateral angles, posterolateral margin adjacent to mesonotum concave, margin adjacent to mesonotum projected angularly, 0.74 as long as mesonotum. Female sternite VII posterior margin slightly concave (Fig. 6C). Material examined. None, except for images of syntype from Puttalam. Remarks. Melichar (1903) described this species based on two females (syntypes) with data “Peradeniya, Juli 1900 (Type jn Kirkaldy’s Sammlung). Puttalam (Museum Budapest)”.
