Etymology. Adjective formed from the Latin interfusus meaning poured between and referring to the species appearance falling between capac / malalae and angustus / stewarti / parvus .
Diagnosis. The shining pronotum lacking visible sculpturation will quickly separate this species from all but capac and malalae from which it may be distinguished by the narrower and more waisted pronotum, and the longer elytral pubescence.
