Comments. While similar to R. helophoroides in many ways, R. guadalcanalensis are easily distinguished by pronotal characters and male sexual dimorphisms. Additionally, it belongs to group of small species similar to R. helophoroides where each island region in Indonesia may have a different localized species in the complex. They are endemics sympatric with the widespread R. helophoroides .
