Hello for me is Oplatocera (Epioplatocera) oberthuri Gahan, 1906.
Oplatocera (Epioplatocera) mandibulata is endemic to Taiwan. |

Gerard, I don't think so.
Oplatocera (Epioplatocera) oberthuri only has a big black spot on pronotum. |

There are two macules on the thorax.

Hello Nasa, your specimen is certainly NOT oberthuri Gahan. I agree with your diagnosis by making a connexion with mandibulata Miwa & Mitono!
As a fact, O. (Epioplatocera) mandibulata is not as endemic as usually admitted. I have on my desk series of specimen from Southern China like yours, but also from Vietnam and Laos, all belonging to this same item
I am actually studying the genus and it could turn out to be a subspecies of mandibulata - to be confirmed.
Do you have more or only this single female? I would be interested in knowing the exact data in order to include them in my study, please contact me: pierre.haller@greenmail.ch |
