10 mm. Quirino, luzon, Philippines.
No name. I have Aurivillius (1926) and Hudepohl (1996) papers, but...
Close to this one, here ? |

A tub with some polystyrene, absorbent material like kitchen roll and hot boiling water will relax specimens overnight. |

Well, you were right : probably a morpha of Glenea exculta Newman, 1842.

True ! I'm 
Is somebody able to translate Hüdepohl text ?
Glenea exculta NEWMAN, 1842 claripennis var. nov. (Abb. 11)
Wie lineella THOMSON, 1865, also Elytren ohne Diskalzeichnungen, mit einer Humeralbinde, die über die Mitte reicht und von einer länglichen Makel gefolgt wirdund einer vollständigen Suturalbinde, jedoch von hellbrauner Grundfarbe und ohne Grundtomentierung. |

Yes, I also suggested G. exculta just because of this Aurivillius' description in his key for Glenea, but I don't know if this suggestion is correct. I did not see a picture of the nominal subspecies. Please note that the picture of Huedepohl, 1996 shows another variation G. exculta claripennis. |

I have posted here the picture of G. exculta from Hudepohl(1996) which have a complete sutural stripe, and I don't know what thinking : As Aurivillius said (1926), this species should have " sutural stripe wanting or only distinct behind the middle"... |

Check also G. exculta, which should have elytra lateral lines replaced by a few spots. |

Why not a morpha of Glenea benguetana Aurivillius, 1926 like theses one ? |
