Attached below is a Lamiinae that has remarkably thickened antennae that in the field gives the insect a very spider-like appearance.

May I know what is the species?

Best regards

This is Apatelarthron heteroclitum Thomson, illustrated in Breuning 1979, Revision of Gyaritini.
I have 1 or 2 new spp. of this genus from Sabah.

Coming back to this topic, the identification is correct but the species does not evidently belong to this tribe.

Following our recent revision of Gyaritini (here), this genus has been transferred to Pteropliini.
