this spm from Borno, Sabah, male 21mm looks very similar to the new described G. bifasciata Vitali, 2025

I would say G. porphyrio unless the elytral punctures looks smaller and densely on the photo

I agree, it looks some unusual. It is very possible that this is a different species. My exemplar of G. porphyrio is very roughly dotted, corresponds to the type. It tomented too but weaker and with a intence green sheen.
