Macrocoma splendidula palmaensis is a subspecies of leaf beetle endemic to the Canary Islands, described by Thure Palm in 1977.[6] It is found on La Palma. It was originally named Macrocoma occidentalis by Palm in 1976, but it was pointed out the species name was already used by Escalera in 1914 (Pseudocolaspis occidentalis, now Macrocoma henoni occidentalis), so it was renamed to M. palmaensis the following year.[1]
