This one also looks similar to Phelipara saigonensis Breuning, 1943

In his description, Breuning writes about P. saigonensis :
- third antennal segment slightly longer than the first (much longer in my specimens)
- the lower lobes of the eyes are slightly shorter than the cheeks (much longer in my specimens).
I therefore do not believe this is P. saigonensis. But I must admit that I too find it difficult to distinguish between several very similar species!

16 mm, Thailand, Phrae Province.
It seems to me that this is the same species, with a slightly different pattern on the elytra.
