Bezděk, Jan, 2019, Taumacera revisited, with new synonyms, new combinations and a revised catalogue of the species (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Galerucinae), Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae (Acta. Ent. Mus. Natl. Pragae) 59 (1), pp. 23-52 : 46

Cerophysa albomaculata ( Chûjô, 1964) , comb. nov.

Luperomorpha (Luperomorphella) albomaculata Chûjô, 1964: 306 (original description)

Comments. CHÛJÔ (1964) described a new subgenus Luperomorphella Chûjô, 1964 of the alticine genus Luperomorpha Weise, 1887 , together with a new species Luperomorpha (Luperomorphella) albomaculata Chûjô, 1964 from Thailand. KIMOTO (2000) synonymized Luperomorphella with Taumacera and, consequently, proposed a new combination Taumacera albomaculata ( Chûjô, 1964) . I did not examine the type material of Luperomorpha albomaculata , however, the original description is accompanied with a photograph of the holotype. The pronotum has a transverse depression and the specific structure of the antennae with short and robuster antennomeres as well as an expanded antennomere IV are characteristic of the genus Cerophysa . Therefore I remove Luperomorphella from synonymy with Taumacera and synonymize it with Cerophysa , thus I also propose a new combination Cerophysa albomaculata ( Chûjô, 1964) (comb. nov.).
