This species was originally described from India, but Breuning considered this locality as erroneous (without furnish reasons - and indicated Java as homeland. |

Your beetle is a female of the genus Gnoma, possibly atomaria or longicollis (both described from India). They are separable through the frontal puncturing of the head. Have you taken other pictures? |
