Are the tibiae spiny ? if not: Paroplites inermis (Aurivillius, 1910) |

For me, P.inermis, have a look at this picture: left : ritsemai / Sumatra right: inermis / Borneo
> shape of pronotum, tibiae, third antennal segment....

For me, these two females belong to different genera. The left one looks like Rhaphipodus sp. |

Following the last revision of the genus Paroplites/Cnemoplites by Komiya, Drumont & Delahaye,2021 the Nasa's specimen is a female of Paroplites oculatus Sp.nov. as well as the right specimen of my picture. The female on the left probably does not belong to the genus Paroplites (maybe Rhaphipodus). |
