Eupholus humeridens is a species of beetle belonging to the family Curculionidae. [1]
Eupholus azureus can reach a length of about 30 millimetres (1.2 in). This species is characterized by its cobalt blue colour, without speckles. There is a slight median longitudinal black line on the pronotum. The outer edge of the elytra and the edge of the pronotum are black. The elytra are pointed at the beetle's apex. The antennae are covered with sensory hairs. [2]
This species can be found in lowland rainforests of Papua New Guinea. [2]
The Cassidinae are a subfamily of the leaf beetles, or Chrysomelidae. The antennae arise close to each other and some members have the pronotal and elytral edges extended to the side and covering the legs so as to give them the common name of tortoise beetles. Some members, such as in the tribe Hispini, are notable for the spiny outgrowths to the pronotum and elytra.
