15 mm.
Xam Neua, poteau du terrain de foot  , Hua Phan, nord-est Laos.
Est-ce qu'il s'agit de la même espèce qu' ici?
La ponctuation du pronotum est totalement différente, je ne sais pas si le dimorphisme sexuel atteint autant le pronotum...P. malaccensis or not ? |

Well, I am a bit confused now. I'll read Gahan's description and make photos of my specimens. This will take some time. |

Thank you Vitali.
Do you have a picture of this famous P. sanguinolentus ? I wonder how is the pronotum punctuation ... |

I would same the same: Purpuricenus malaccensis (Lacordaire, 1869).
Females have different punctation in pronotum. |
