Cryptocephalus gibicollis gibicollis Haldeman, 1849
Egg-shaped, rusty yellow body; the rims and two hind spots on the pronotum, along with the elytra, bright yellow; the seam of the elytra and two cross-bands, black; the glossy pronotum, rising in a hump in front, dispersedly punctured; the elytra moderately punctured with unwrinkled interspaces. [Translated from the original German in Suffrian, 1858].
"Pronotum: Orange to red, nearly always with two vague oblique, yellowish spots at base; lateral and apical margins more or less yellowish; yellowish markings often reduced or expanded. Surface with dual punctation, larger punctures minute to small. Pronotum in profile rather to distinctly more gibbous than usual. Elytra: Creamy yellow to very light orange with black markings. Each elytron with two complete, sharply delimited, black (rarely very dark reddish) vittae as follows: from base of second, third, and fourth intervals to apex of second interval; from humerus to apex of seventh to fourth intervals. With eight rows of punctures, usually sixth and seventh rows confused, sometimes only sixth, fifth row often abbreviated; punctures as usual in size and density, finer apically; inner and outer rows usually clearly meeting at apex; epipleuron black throughout. Prosternum: Anterior margin in both sexes somewhat produced into a broad lobe. Length: 5.2 to 7.1 mm" (White, 1968: 56).
