Holotype. ♁ (MZB), “ Cibodas, West Java, Indonesia, 12.xii.2004, K. T. Takano / ex inflorescence of Pinanga coronata ”.

Paratypes. Indonesia: 12♁, 4♀, same data as the holotype (MZB, SEHU); 2♁ (#05200–01), 1♀ (#05226), same data as the holotype except for 24.xii.2003 (KIZ) .

Distribution. Indonesia (West Java).

Remarks. This species resembles C. pinangae sp. nov., but can be distinguished from it by the diagnostic characters.

Etymology. The specific name derives from “besar” (meaning “large”) of Indonesian, referring to its larger body size among the members of the zeylanica group.
