The difference between the buddhist and gregorian calendar is 543 years. So logically your beetle would have been collected in 1515...

Mes spécimens du Laos. Sans doute rien d'intéressant pour toi, Pierre ?

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

Gerard, thanks. I got the wrong determination from Hua et al.(2009).

Hello Nasa.
Look here you will find the type.
There are two macules on the thorax.

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