Black on back of head; No black line in middle of pronotum; Black pitting on side of pronotum; Black scutellum (I think); Black line does not go full length of suture (the only thing going for C. bartoni); Green elytra band <1/3 elytra width; Fairly straight elytra bands but I cant see if they meet apically.
