Sceloenopla fraterna is a species of beetle of the family Chrysomelidae. It is found in Nicaragua. [2]
The form, sculpture, and coloration is very similar to Sceloenopla ampliata , but the thorax is narrower, rather more conical, and distinctly bisinuate on the sides. The elytra are more broadly dilated behind the middle, the posterior angle being armed with a small tooth, the apical margin is more broadly emarginate at the suture, and the sutural angle, although acute, is not produced into a distinct tooth. [3]
No host plant has been documented for this species. [2]
