The accession number 11466 on the two paralectotype at the ZMHB indicates the two specimens accessioned from the Buquet Collection collected near Bogotá, Colombia. Burmeister (1844) did not state how many specimens were in the type series (which was from the Buquet collection). The existence and location of other paralectotypes are unknown. Type locality: Bogotá, Colombia. DESCRIPTION. Male (n=55). Length 20.8- 27.1 mm, width 10.9-15.0 mm. Color of dorsal surface olive green to lime green or dark yellow (sometimes darkened to brownish-green); pronotum often with dark maculations; elytral intervals 3, 5, and 7 sometimes with weak, yellow, longitudinal stripe; pronotum, scutellum, and elytron with yellow margin. Ventral surface olive green to reddish-brown, metasternum sometimes with medial brown patch. Body ovate, strongly convex. Head: Dorsal surface glabrous. Frons densely punctate, clypeus rugopunctate, punctures moderate. Frons depressed. Frontoclypeal suture complete. Clypeal apex broadly rounded. Eyes separated by approximately 4.0 transverse eye-widths. Labrum densely punctate, with moderately large, setose punctures, setae tawny. Apex of labrum with small, triangular, medial tooth, apex of tooth well separated from apex of mentum. Mandibular scissorial region with 2 teeth, molar region with strong lamellae. Maxilla with 3 teeth, 2 inner teeth bifurcate. Mentum with apicomedial notch. Antenna 10-segmented; club approximately equal to segments 2-7, slightly longer than length of frons. Pronotum: Surface glabrous, moderately punctate, with small and moderate punctures. Marginal bead weak laterally, absent elsewhere. Elytron: Surface glabrous; longitudinal striae weakly impressed, punctate; punctures moderate with dark coloration; intervals sparsely punctate, punctures small. Suture apically angled, without spine. Pygidium: Width approximately 1.8 times length medially. Surface convex, disc impunctate (sparsely punctate near apex); punctures moderately large, setose; setae short, tawny. Venter: Thorax densely setose (except moderately setose medially), setae cream colored. Mesothoracic process weakly produced, projecting anteriorly weakly past mesocoxa; shape conical. Abdomen sparsely setose, setae cream colored. Apical spiracles not extruding. Legs: Protibia with 3 subequal

Protarsomere 4 with internoapical stridulatory ridge. Protarsomere 5 with internomedial, stridulatory tooth. Mesotarsomere and metatarsomere 5 without internal tooth or swelling. Unguitractor plate cylindrical; with 1 apical, 1 subapical seta. Modified protarsal claw with length greater than protarsomere 5, thickened and elongate when compared with other claw, laterally flattened, apex unevenly bifurcate. Modified mesotarsal and metatarsal claws elongated with ventral tooth, not thickened. Male Genitalia: Parameres approximately 1.1 times longer than length of phallobase. Parameres with apex rounded, weakly deflexed laterally. Female (n=60). Length 25.2-32.8 mm, width 14.2-17.5 mm. As male except in the following respects. Legs: Protarsomere 4 without internoapical stridulatory ridge. Protarsomere 5 without internal tooth. Modified protarsal claw with ventral tooth, not thickened. DIAGNOSIS. This species is distinguished from all other species in the genus Platycoelia by the following combination of characters: color mainly green, pronotum with dark maculations; frontoclypeal suture complete; apex of the labrum with a reduced, triangular tooth not overlapping the mentum; mentum with a medial notch, base medially depressed; antenna 10-segmented, club not longer than other segments combined; elytral apices not capable of completely covering the pygidium; apex of the elytral suture without an acute spine; mesothoracic process projecting apically past the mesocoxa; apical abdominal spiracle not protuberant; mesotarsomere 5 and metatarsomere 5 without an internal tooth; parameres with the apex rounded, not expanded.
