Well, personally I'm more interested in the identity of the attach specimen - I found it in Sabah just a few days ago.
The key of Gressitt is not very helpful in this case. |

You're right! The dehiscent elytra belong just to this species.
It is a specimen a little lighter than one present in the gallery.
Pay attention that the description year of this species is 1907 and not 1895, as Gressitt mentioned. |

Not a good choice, in my view.
T. sumatrensis would suit better to this specimen. |

Exactly! According to Gressitt's monograph about this genus (you can download it here), Thranius bimaculatus Pascoe, 1859 is the only species present in Borneo. |
