Larva (Fig. 69): Distinguished from other species of the genus Acal- olepta Pasc. by distinctly projecting (not fusing) spinules on pronotal shield and other characters. Body elongate. Head parallel-sided, half retracted into prothorax, reddish-rust, at anterior margin dark rust. Epistoma laterally fusing with temporo-parietal lobes (frontal sutures not perceptible), med- ially divided by dark brown longitudinal suture, at anterior margin laterally with pair of short or long bristles, in anterior half on each side with two- three long and one (sutural) short bristle forming common transverse row. Hypostoma slightly convex, barely tapering anteriorly or almost parallel- 136. Fig. 69.
