Hab. Mexico, Orizaba (Bilimek, in Mus. Vind. Ces.), Chilpancingo and Xucumanatlan 
in Guerrero (H. H. Smith). 
This species is allied to 7. compta, but is on the average larger, with the head more 
pointed and the colour different. The purple lines on the disc of the tegmina are 
sometimes indistinct, but the costal margin (as in 7. compta) appears to be always 
purple from the shoulders to behind the middle. 
An example from Chilpancingo is figured.

lineato, lineis in pronoto scutelloque continuatis ; pronoto obscure viridi, antice testaceo ; scutello magno,
