Identification. This species is similar in appearance with the other species of Ifasina— C. mouthiezi Dheurle, 2015 —in having a labrum with six to 10 marginal setae and a metallic bluish-green head. However, these species differ in their elytral markings of which C.macilenta having a thinner anterior maculation compared to C. mouthiezi .

Remarks. Cylindera (I.) macilenta (Schaum, 1862) and C. (I.) fabiocassola Weisner,1989 are the most abundant tiger beetle species encountered in this study. The two species occur together in the same habitat. They were both found on well-exposed to partly shaded stream banks, particularly along the sandy/gravel portion of the bank.
