Help please, for confirmation. The first photo shows two males of Xiphotheata moellendorfii from Morobe Prov.,with those hornlike coxae. Correct?
And the last photo, a female? without those hornlike coxae, also from Morobe.
Is that female also X. moellendorfii, or could it be X. luctifera? With this pronotum?

Xiphotheata moellendorfii (Flach, 1890), dessin original.

Je n'ai pas la description de Xiphotheata luctifera Fairmaire, 1881.

Merci Xavier.
Je ne crois pas non plus que le 3ème spécimen à droite soit X. luctifera mais plutôt une femelle de X. moellendorfii.
C'est le pronotum qui intriguait.
