( Figs 1 E View Fig , 2 E View Fig , 3 View Fig I-J, 4 E, 5 E, 6 I-J, 8 F-J, 9 G)
Male. Body aquamarine, with metallic shine; head and pronotum partly purple; intervals aubergine; rim of pronotum green, anterior and posterior rims blue in middle; scutellum bright turquoise; legs multicolour, blue, yellow, red and purple intermixed; femora bluish violet at apex; elytra strongly metallically shining, ventral surface moderately metallically shining. Elongate, feebly widened posteriorly, longitudinally convex above.
Head sub-octagonal, closely and coarsely punctures; clypeus with dense, rugulose and merging punctures forming small wrinkles; eyes rather transverse, comma-shaped, with deep ocular sulci; distance between eyes slightly wider than transverse diameter of an eye; interocular space almost impunctate in a somewhat V-shaped; temples long. Antennomere VIII slightly wider at apex; XI clavate; ratio of the length of antennomeres I to XI as follows: 0.4, 0.2, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.8, 0.8, 0.9, 0.7, 0.8, 1.1.
Pronotum about 1.8 times as wide as long, widest at base; anterior margin nearly straight; posterior margin with obvious double concave and strongly margined; anterior angles obtuse; posterior angles feebly angulate; the bases of lateral margins hardly visible in dorsal view; disc slightly convex, punctures slightly denser medially than laterally; median line obvious. Scutellum triangular, with grooves, sparsely scattered with small punctures.
Elytra about 1.8 times as long as wide, 5.0 times the length and 2.6 times the width of pronotum; humeri slightly convex; disc moderately, longitudinally convex, and with fine punctato-striaed grooves; intervals slightly ridged.
Prosternal process declivous at apex, and slightly concave in middle; mesosternal V-shaped elevation inconspicuous; mesosternum with one strong ridge in fovea; metasternum and abdomen distinctly convex, scattered with small punctures and wrinkles.
Aedeagus length: 4.3 mm; parameres as long as phallobase.
Female. Antennomere with 4 apical segments clearly dilated, segment XI ovate; length of ovipositor: 14.0 mm.
Measurements. Body length: male 24.0–27.0 mm; female 27.0–30.0 mm.
Material: Holotype, male. Wuzhishan , Hainan, 20. iv. 2010, Wang Zhi-Cheng leg. ( MHBU).

Diagnosis – The new species is closely related to F. fruhstorferi ( FAIRMAIRE, 1903) , but can be distinguished by: (1) The body of the former is mainly dark green; of the latter mainly coppery green; (2) The former with feeble shine; the latter with strong shine; (3) The V-shaped elevation of the former slightly convex; the latter strongly convex; (4) The scutellum of the former triangular; of the latter sublinguiform; (5) The ratio of the length of parameres and phallobase in the former about 1:1; in the latter about 1.5:1; (6) Midline of the pronotum of the former obvious and conspicuous; of the latter inconspicuous; (7) Prosternal process of the former slightly concave in middle; of the latter deeply concave in middle.
