Caliroa cinxia
Caliroa cinxia
Adult: A black insect. The third antennal segment clearly shorter than the fourth and fifth combined. Clypeus sub-truncate. Hind tibia with white basally (basal one-third in female and basal one-quarter in male). Hind tarsus entirely black on basal segment.
Larva: All Caliroa larvae are slug-like in that the trunk is coated with a translucent mucus membrane. Consequently, the body colour of the larva is largely dependent on the colour of the gut contents. It is generally considered that C. cinxia have a more yellow tint than does annulipes, though this may be constricted to the thoracic region and, according to Schönrogge, may not be at all apparent.
