  1. Beautiful, so well-defined patterns and a shape that is close to a perfect sphere. Posted 8 years ago

Paropsisterna nigrovittata is a small convex beetle in the paropsini tribe of leaf beetles.
It is small pale beetle with lines along the fine puncturation series. The lines are regular and even, without variation. Museum records and the Chapuis description leave no doubt as to this identification.
