Redescription. Length 5.0– 5.7 mm, width 1.9–2.2 mm. General color (Figs 4 D–4F) metallic blue; mouth parts brown or dark brown; legs and antennae pale yellow, sometimes femora, apices of tibiae and tarsi darkened. Vertex with reticulate microsculpture. Antennae filiform in males (Fig. 19A), antennomeres III–X slightly curved, length ratios of antennomeres I–XI 1.0: 0.2: 0.9: 1.2: 1.2: 1.2: 1.2: 1.1: 1.1: 1.1: 1.2, length to width ratios of antennomeres I–XI 2.6: 1.0: 2.7: 3.6: 3.8: 3.6: 3.8: 3.7: 4.3: 4.3: 5.1; slender in females (Fig. 19B), antennomeres III–X straight, length ratios of antennomeres I–XI 1.0: 0.3: 0.7: 0.9: 1.0: 0.8: 0.8: 0.8: 0.8: 0.8: 0.8, length to width ratios of antennomeres I–XI 3.5: 1.9: 3.8: 5.1: 5.3: 4.7: 4.6: 4.4: 4.4: 4.3: 4.6. Pronotum transverse, 1.2–1.3x wider than long, disc with one pair of lateral depressions, reticulate microsculpture, and with dense, coarse punctures; lateral margin basally narrowed; apical and basal margins subtruncate. Elytra elongate and parallel-sided, 1.9x longer than wide; disc with reticulate microsculpture, dense, coarse punctures, arranged into longitudinal rows, and with distinctly longitudinal ridges between longitudinal rows of punctures. Apical margin of abdominal ventrite V in females (Fig. 19H) rounded, but slightly depressed near medial area. Tarsomeres I of front legs swollen in males (Fig. 19I), subparallel in females (Fig. 19J). Penis (Figs 19 C–19E) extremely slender, 10.4x longer than wide; apex lanceolate, with medial, shallow, narrow notch, parallel-sided; tectum extremely elongate from apical 1/10 to basal 1/3, apically narrowed; straight in lateral view, slightly curved near base; triangular sclerites small; internal sac with elongate endophallic sclerite complex, 0.6x as long as penis, composed of two sclerites, basal piece much longer (1.4x) than apical piece, apical sclerite with acute apex, dorsal sclerite with apex acute and hook-like in lateral view; ventral sclerites absent. Gonocoxae (Fig. 19F) elongate, slightly broadened at apical 1/6, connected from basal 1/3 to apical 1/5; apices narrowly rounded, each gonocoxa with eight setae along outer margin from apex to apical 1/6; with one pair of short lateral processes at basal 2/5. Ventrite VIII (Fig. 19G) longitudinal and well sclerotized; disc with several long setae at sides and near apical margin, and with dense, short setae along apical margin; spiculum extremely slender. Receptacle of spermatheca (Fig. 19K) strongly swollen; pump slender and strongly curved; proximal spermathecal duct deeply inserted into receptacle, broad and short.

Variation. Some specimens from southern Taiwan have metallic green bodies (Figs 4H, 4I). Specimens at high altitudes (more than 2000 m) have deep metallic purple bodies and dark brown legs with black tibiae and tarsi (Fig. 4G).

Diagnosis. Males of T. sauteri Chûjô are similar to those of T. geiseri sp. nov. based on absence of ventral sclerites (present in others), longer basal piece (subequal or short than apical piece in others) but are characterized by the dorsal sclerite separate from the basal and apical pieces (Figs 19 C–19E).

Food plants. Rosaceae: Prunus campanulata; P. phaeosticta; Moraceae: Ficus sarmentosa var. nipponica; Fagaceae: Pasania hancei var. ternaticupula f. naticupula; Lythraceae: Lagerstroemia subcostata; Actinidiaceae: Actinidia callosa; Myricaceae: Myrica rubra.

Distribution. Endemic to Taiwan. Theopea sauteri is one of most widespread species of the genus in Taiwan. Adults appear at various elevations (Fig. 10C) and almost year round except January and December. Most adults were collected in lowlands (0~ 1500 m) (88%) and from April to July (87%).
