O mozambicus or gazella and not elegans as I wrote in the previous post. |

Yes but this glabrous premediane band is also present at O gazella! However, at O gazella yellowish bead is smooth and linear to the suture. By cons at O mozambicus this bead is regular and linear over the three quarters of its length and rises abruptly on the suture and somehow gives a shape of tightning like a funnel upside down.
I have several ex in collection of 11 different taxa determined by Adlbauer, Mourglia and myself and the species that could relate to the individual picture would or O mozambicus or elegans. But there may be errors also ..... |

Yes, there is a distinct glabrous pre-median band.

It also seems O. mozambicus.
Does it show a smooth hairless premedian band on the elytra? |

Hi,
Could it be Oxilus elegans ? |
