It is a Trichohoplorana, maybe Trichohoplorana dureli Breuning, 1961. Type specimen is at MNHN.
Otherwise it is a new species. |

Here the pages from Gressitt (1940): Longhorn beeltes of Taiwan with the description of Neacanista.
Maybe your sps belongs to Trichohoplorana, C. Holzschuh recently describes a new species from Nepal, but not published yet.

Thanks a lot Andrea.
I really think that my specimen is a Trichohoplorana; habitus is similar to the 3 species described (shape and teeth of pronotum, scape, shoulders etc) |

But there is another problem :
Trichohoplorana dureli Breuning, 1961 from BREUNING, 1977-1978. Révision de la tribu des Acanthocinini de la région asiato-australienne.
and here type picture of Ostedes dureli Breuning & Heyrovský,1961 which is a synonym for Titan database.
Evidently, two different genera. But, where is the error ?  |

I found an old picture of the HT from T. dureli Breuning, 1961 (see type section), O. dureli maybe is an in litteris species.

Very nice.
It confirms that my specimen is a Trichohoplorana and in this case, a new species.
The other species, which belongs to Ostedes, ... I don't know what is it. |

Yes, it should be a new (remarkable) species of Trichohoplorana; a further one from Nepal (T. tenuipes) is similar to T. mutica.
I have 2 spms from Nepal belonging to a further n. sp. probably, but both are a singles (male, female).
I am just waiting for more material. |

The thing that makes me fairly skeptical concerning the genus is that all species have a pattern of transversal bands and no traces of longitudinal spots.
The only likeness I can notice is the pattern of the pronotum of T. juglandis.
However, this species seems to be far related to other ones... |

and same kind of pattern and same flat area -without any punctuation- all along the suture, isn't it ? |

| By reading Breuning's revision, it seems very close to Neacanista shirakii (Mitono, 1943) only knows from Taiwan. |
