Description

Zographus oculator can reach a body length of 25–35 millimetres (0.98–1.38 in). The basic colour is black, with a transverse median band and large yellow orange-centred pair of eye-like spots (hence the Latin name oculator, from the Latin word oculus, meaning eye) located at the base, towards the tips and at the sides of the elytra. These beetles show narrow yellow lines across the head and the thorax, two large rounded tubercles at the sides of the thorax and tiny wrinkles on the elytra.
