Cephaloleia conforma is a species of beetle of the family Chrysomelidae. It is found in Costa Rica. [1]
Adults reach a length of about 6.2–6.6 mm. Adults are reddish-brown, with the antennae (except the basal 2 antennomeres) and eyes black. The venter and legs are paler.
Adults have been collected off Calathea species and Cephaloleia guzamanioides .
The species name is derived from Latin conformis (meaning like or resembling), since the species resembles Cephaloleia congener and Cephaloleia sallei . [2]
