Based on a well preserved female specimen from Bitterfeld amber, Monolepta rappsilberi sp. nov. is described and illustrated using X-ray micro-computed tomography (CT). It is the second reported member of Chrysomelidae from this fossil resin and the first described fossil Monolepta representative. The fossil species represents a lineage that is extinct in Recent Europe. A longitudinal carina on abdominal ventrite 5 of the female is a unique character for the subfamily Galerucinae.
基于一块来自比特费尔德琥珀的保存完好的雌性标本，描述并图示了新种 Monolepta rappsilberi。这是该化石树脂中第二例报道的叶甲科成员，也是首例描述的化石 Monolepta 代表。该化石种代表了一个在近代欧洲已经灭绝的谱系。雌性第五腹板上的纵向隆脊是该亚科 Glerucinae 的一个独特特征。
