Very, very nice!
It belongs surely to Mesosini but is not present in Breuning's monograph (1938-39).
Demodes is an interesting suggestion but it has a Malayan-Philippine distribution.
Can I have a lateral view in order to search the genus? |

Yes, certainly, here, if it will help. This beetle from a "window trap", therefore it is undesirable for unsticking from a glue board - it will ruinous.
Well, at least, one species of Demodes is noted for Laos. I do not exclude, as Malayan species can have enough wide areal. |

... actually your specimen seems to have all characters of Demodes and its pattern is very alike to D. albomaculata von Breuning, 1939 from Sumatra.
Unfortunately, I think I have no description of this only Laotian species (D. bimaculata von Breuning, 1947)  |

Yes, it is very similar. I saw earlier this image, therefore I offered this hypothesis with Demodes.
Many thanks for your time, Francesco! |

I am copying here the description of Demodes bimaculata from Breuning, 1947.
Difficult to say whether this is the same species. Probably not, as the description does not mention sutural spots.
