W | maximum width with elytra fully closed |
A short and wide pronotum relative to the elytra. Similar to Anilara planifrons, but generally a little larger and with a frontal sulcus (medial groove on upper frons/vertex). The sulcus is s usually confined to the upper part of the frons, and its very subtle and variable in its prominence and length.
This species was described by Hope 1846b as Anthaxia adelaidae with the comment 'inhabits Adelaide'. The SA Museum has an early specimen from Adelaide with a determination that is probably by Blackburn.
